To this day, if his hunting show comes on or if a commercial comes on with him in it.... I change the channel... never forget!

I haven't forgotten. Piss on Zumbo the Dumbo !! He can kiss our AR15 totin' asses.

.

Never forget, never forgive.

What did he say?

story i read was he basically called ar15s terrorist guns, and arfcom went apeshit shortly thereafter, and ol zumbo had to find a new job for a while.

Basically he spewed the same dribble about ARs and AKs as the liberals do

He was the one that publicly claims to be a supporter of 2nd amendment rights, then turned around and denounced the use of "military type" weapons for hunting.
His focus on our weapons started out as him ranting about prairie dog hunters using AR15's, then on 16 February, 2007, he specifically called the AR15 a "Terrorist rifle".
The Outdoor Channel tossed his hunting show due to his crap, then hired him back a few months later. As far as I know, he has kept his shit-hole shut ever since.

Some fudd comment about how EBRs are evil. He was subsequently boycotted, so he changed his tune.

As far as I'm concerned, he's learned his lesson.

Well, I guess I missed that one.

Thanks.

May Fuck Be Upon Him... Ass

Fuck zumbo

A brief summary....

He comes out to these parts to hunt regularly. In fact, one of our deputies even hunted with him quite a bit. He doesn't anymore.

One I was actually IN on. I usually miss all the legendary moments.

Wait till December rolls around and you discover Santa Clause for the first time. Santa rocks!



lol



j/k





 

Or his need to eat outweighed his need to spread that filth about our rifles.

LMFAO!!

What I think still stands

I had a different account on Arfcom back then. We lit the internet up and got his ass fired.  There are three names I think of when somebody says "Fuck_______". Those are BHO, AROCK, and Zumbo. Fuck 'em all.  Zumbo is an elitest Fudd and can forever after kiss my ass.

But The Nuge made it all better???  We're supposed to like him now.





FUCK JIM ZUMBO.

Still hate that douchebag and I refuse to watch any show he is on or a part of.  Additionally, I will not purchase or use any product he is affiliated with.

Classic example of some animals being more equal than others.

FUCK ZUMBO!!!(hard to believe that was that long ago already!)

The funny thing is that Ted Nugent (NRA Director) dragged Jim Zumbo out to shoot prairie dogs with an AR, which Zumbo  took to about as well as anyone who had just imploded his livelihood at the time. Some of the other writers, not so much.

You do realize that your signature is a direct quote from Ted Nugent.

Yeah I know, but Ted didn't say all the stupid shit, he just tried to help a dumb friend. We all have dumb friends so I will let him slide

Dude made a mistake......

Awesome!

I remember

Well done.
Zumbo is an ass. Very annoying to still see him on TV.
I guess the stupid lazy POS figured out that if he lost his gravy train he would have to go get a real job.
Doubt he knows how to do anything remotely useful.

ETA: If you need reason to hate Zumbo even more, The NYT came to his defense.

That was 2007?!?!   It seems so much longer ago...

I never paid attention to him before this started so nothing really changed for me.

I don't believe he is sorry.  If he didn't stand to lose so much, maybe his "apology" would be worth more.  I can't see someone making such a strongly worded statement unless they firmly believe what they are saying.

Regarding "shooting our wounded:" he proved he is not "one of us" when he made that statement.

I understand what you're saying, but I believe making him one of us is not possible.

I look at it the same way I look at a politician: he's saying what needs to be said to make people forget previous actions, and get votes today.

What was your banned account name?

Maybe. There's been alot of guys that said they wouldn't hunt with AR's that do now. Same kind of hype guys have about "never" shooting or owning a tupperware pistol. With time, comes wisdom and understainding.



 

A  penguin mating with beaver?  It's the end of the world!





 

Are we still terrorists?

He said that he was sorry for calling us thus, but I don't think he ever said that we weren't terrorists.

Fuck Zumbo. He even had that antigun "Pro gun" group the AHSA run to his defense. Fuck be on all of them.

 

Let's see the pics!

I wasn't a member of this site at the time... But I remember learning about what happened...

A positive outcome was that I remember Field and Stream publishing a bit on it, and soon after that they started having more articles on AR's in "hunting" applications.

I think more folks got the message than just Zumbo...

As far as trying to make a guy an enemy who has offered an appology, I am not so sure that is *wise*.

When I was in college, I became friends with a girl, and spent some time with her and her family. Her parents were near retirement age, and her dad, when he got upset with his wife, would mention her boyfriends, and youthful indescretions with said boyfrieds, from *before* they were married. At first, I thought she must have cheated on him, from his (in front of other people) anger and resentment. Nope. From before they had even met. Now there was a guy who couldn't let things go.

Sometimes, you got to let things go.

And in this particular case, we have a guy who has obviously been punished. We have a guy who offered an apology, and for all intents and purposes hasn't made the same mistake again...

Is there "real" angst for the AR among FUDD's? Absolutely. I have seen it at my local range. Mouthy comments from guys sighting in their hunting rifles. The first time I thought they were trying to be funny. Then when I realized they were serious, my knees almost buckeled. I know how to talk to liberal douche's about gun rights, and the 2nd Amd. but how do you respectfully talk to a guy sighting in his hunting rifle about the 2nd Amd. and the need for more than "five rounds in a rifle." I said something stupid, like "well, what if more than five guys try to break into my house..." And I said it, trying to be respectful, but also defending my position. He said, "If more than five guys are trying to kill you, they are going to win, no matter how many rounds you have." I said, "Yeah, but I will give it my best shot, you have a nice day, mister." I was absolutely floored. I am telling you that my knees almost buckled. It was like somebody kneed me in my stomach. I was out of breath, and stammering. I couldn't believe it...

But in this particular case, we have a guy who made an apology, changed his stance, and publicly stated that the AR has a place.

I can accept that.

Forgive your enemies, but don't forget their names.

The blog entry that started it all:

I must be living in a vacuum. The guides on our hunt tell me that the use of AR and AK rifles have a rapidly growing following among hunters, especially prairie dog hunters. I had no clue. Only once in my life have I ever seen anyone using one of these firearms. I call them "assault" rifles, which may upset some people. Excuse me, maybe I'm a traditionalist, but I see no place for these weapons among our hunting fraternity. I'll go so far as to call them "terrorist" rifles. They tell me that some companies are producing assault rifles that are "tackdrivers." Sorry, folks, in my humble opinion, these things have no place in hunting. We don't need to be lumped into the group of people who terrorize the world with them, which is an obvious concern. I've always been comfortable with the statement that hunters don't use assault rifles. We've always been proud of our "sporting firearms." This really has me concerned. As hunters, we don't need the image of walking around the woods carrying one of these weapons. To most of the public, an assault rifle is a terrifying thing. Let's divorce ourselves from them. I say game departments should ban them from the praries [sic] and woods.

 

And his boy friend Cooper.

 

We need a whole list of anti-freedom gun people and companies, here is a few

badguys:
Zumbo (writer) - anti AR-15
Cooper rifles - supported Obama
H.S. precision stocks - Lon Horiuchi fan club
Robinson Armament  - Romney backer
Smith & Wesson - sell out agreement with feds

reformed:
Ruger Firearms - Bill Ruger is dead, current company even producing 10/22 high caps
