Cant ask for a much better response than that.
I emailed them at 800pm and had this response by 835om.
I didnt know if I should post this or not so I deleted the name of the CEO. Im sure things are getting mighty cold for Mr Zumbo about now......and rightfully so.

Someone in his position has a great responsibility to make sure what they write does not harm our right to keep and bear arms. Simply put Mr. Zumbo failed run a sanity check before he made his blog entry and gave the anti-gun crowd ammo to use against us. He should be treated as the traitor he is and exiled by the gun owner/hunting community.

IMO Zumbo said what he meant. I would respect him more if he stood behind his words. I read his apology, it was riddled with excuses!!! I have no problem forgiving him, but he has no business being in the shooting sports lime light any more. He should be dropped immediately by all sporting good sponsors. I am pretty sure the BRADY BUNCH will pick him up. I believe he may have done some good things, that is great. If he likes, he should continue to do good things for hunters. However there are alot of good people who do alot of good things without being in the lime light.
If Zumbo respects us, and his sport, then he will bow out gracefully. He would not put pressure on his friends and sponsors if he was a man of his word.
There are a few words that we as sportsman need to quit using. They are"Sniper", "Tactical", and "Assault Weapon". Please stop using these terms today. Tom.

Everybody needs to renew their membership with The NRA immediately. Once this get started there is no end. Remember who our speaker of the house is? Nancy "I want all your guns" Peloci. TSIHTF!
Mr. Zumbo has given the Brady coalition a tremendous stick to hit us in the head with.

We need to quit using the word "weapon" all together. A firearm isn't a weapn until a person makes a concious decision to use that firearm as a weapon.
