Joe Doakes from Como Park emails – reiterating something I myself posted on Facebook the other day:
Since the tragedy in Orlando, this sign has been popping up and gun sales to GLBT buyers are soaring.
Great – if you know how to use one. I’ve been shooting 40 years. My sincere offer: if any GLBT new gun owner would like lessons, let Mitch know and we’ll arrange it. No politics; no judgment; no fee: just safety and accuracy.

I did in fact make this offer on Facebook.
And I’m with Joe – if you want an intro to firearms, I’d be happy to help. I neither confirm nor deny that I own any firearms – but I’ll rent something – on me.
Perhaps better than that? I do know at least one member of the LGBT community who is a licensed firearms trainer. He’s a professional; let me know, I’ll make the introduction.
Send me a note via my contact-me page. We’ll figure it out.
I’m no trainer, but I can take you to the range, teach you the safety rules and help you become comfortable with your firearm. Then we can talk about which of the many great instructors might be a good choice for you to contact next.
And I’m sure I could get a dozen more of my friends who’d do the same for anyone who wanted to learn.

This is an exceptional opportunity to reach out to people who’ve been kept on the “Progressive” Plantation too long!
