My two cents is that Nugent is not an asset to the shooting or the hunting community, that his net impact is negative rather than positive. He feeds the paranoia of the anti-gun crowd with his outrageous sheenanagans (going on stage with a "machine" gun -- the form of a machine gun -- really? that's supposed to help us out?).

I can understand one hunting regulation error -- we are all subject to error -- but not several. You have to know the laws. You should know the laws. You shouldn't depend on your guides to know the laws. I know it is sometimes complicated and intricate to know these laws, but notwithstanding you should learn them.
