Yes Jim has done many good things for hunters and shooters. He has built up a huge castle (figure of speech)of pro hunting/ gun work in the past to help protect us all. But when you drop a nuke, like what he said in his blog, you just destroyed that castle and everything around it for miles.

Many people do many things in their lives to help other people but every now and then one of these wonderful people short circuits, flys off the handleand kills someone for no aparant reason. Should we all look the other way and forgive and forget, because of their humanitarian past, the fact that they murdered another person or should they rot in a prison? Yes this is more dramatic but the samereasoning applies.
