More of a rant about other shooters...
There was a local looking guy, young about 20s in a red shirt who continued to grab stuff from the bench after a ceasefire. Argued and dissed the RO.  Supervisor came out and told him he was going to kick him off the range if he didn't listen.  There was another guy in a black cowboy hat who argued with another RO about why je can't go the bench during a ceasefire.

Man. >:(

Saw that. The guy was about four tables to my left. Don't know exactly what the guy was doing. Looked like he was accessing a bag. Perhaps some people don't realize that you cannot approach the bench even to access your goody bag to get target supplies.

Banning someone from a public park takes due process of law.

Amazing & sad.  Gotta give props to the ROs since they probably deal with these careless idiots (uneducated or ignorant person) daily.  Not to diss these two guys, but the rules are for everyone's safety.  And, granted that the ROs may not always seem to be the happy go lucky type (some may even say grumpy), but can you blame them?  They are responsible for everyone's safety and have to deal with guys like this.  I realize that we need to be responsible as well . . .

Please remember to thank the ROs when you are there because they got your back.   :shaka:

It was nice out there today.  It was a good day as I do not have any new holes in my pistol frame.   :D
