Jorge Amselle is a writer for the firearms industry, such as Tactical-Life.
During conversations at an industry event in Florida both Thursday night and Friday morning
he stated to me, with a number of other industry professionals present and listening, that he

Supported Hillary Clinton for President and was going to vote for her.

He felt other issues such as immigration (he's Hispanic) were more important than the Second Amendment
Stated Obama hadn't been bad for the 2A and Hillary would be basically a third term.
He stated he would rather see Hillary Clinton appoint justices to the Supreme Court and not Trump.
He stated he was not a single-issue voter and the 2A was not at the top of his list.

Jorge can vote for anyone he wants. It's his right.

However, his readers have a right to know Jorge Amselle both supports Hillary Clinton for President, plans to
vote for her. Hillary is well known for her outspoken plans to destroy the Second Amendment.

And he places other issues, such as immigration above the Second Amendment.

I have been a member of the firearms industry since 1998. I can't believe a member of the firearms press would openly
support Hillary Clinton for President. In my opinion supporting Hillary Clinton for President in this election and supporting
her picks for the Supreme Court are much worse than what Jim Zumbo, Jerry Tsai or Dick Metcalf did......

He is another Team Wendy.......

I went back and forth with him, with other writers such as Tim Yan, Todd Jaderborg, Richard Venola, Neal Shera and even my employer present, and made my thoughts known to him in a crystal clear manner.

What are your thoughts?

If I made my living in an industry as unforgiving as this one, I'd be more careful about letting that sort of opinion cross my lips.

He is obviously a single-issue voter, it just ain't 2A.

Was it a discussion, like a public round table or something, OP?



Or was it over lunch in a social conversation or the like?







If the latter, no matter how odious his views, I think you're out of line, unless you told him it was your intent to broadcast his observations to the world.

There is some trust involved when speaking with colleagues. And discretion.
Even those with whom you strongly disagree. That promotes free expression and dialogue among colleagues

It started out as a social conversation Thursday night, I let it slide.

Friday Morning, he started it again and during our conversation with other industry people present
I made it clear that what Zumbo, Metcalf and Tsais had said was not as bad in the eyes of the industry
and he could have walked it back at any time. He was given multiple opportunities to walk away, walk it back, drop it.
Other industry professionals who were present all made the comment, "You gave him multiple chances to drop it, walk it back
or change what he was espousing."

He referred to people being mad on his Facebook about his views which he is very open about.
He is in no way trying to keep it a secret.

I generally agree with you on the principle here, but not in this instance.

The time for respecting the position of antis is long past. They have no qualms about using anything and everything to take our rights.

Expose these people for what they are.

In this case an industry writer who would trade the 2nd amendment for amnesty and open borders.

I can't find any fucks to spare the guy.
