U.K.'s Daily Mail marvels at a typical American girl

Post by OakRidgeStars »

It looks like someone across the pond has just discovered what we already knew. Girls like to hunt too.

And it probably doesn't hurt either that she's cuter than a box of puppies :wub:

The language of the article is not very supportive, but at least they ran it. Good for her and thankfully there are many like her in this country. Always need more though.

I do not know if she is hot or scary!
The article was decent outside the Palin references. Any positive press for gun use is a plus in my books.

You have to remember that this is a UK paper, and the fact that it was printed at all is a big win.

The UK are very Anti-Gun overall and look at us Americans as Cowboys with a gun shooting up the town (No Offense Cowboy T). I have this fight, or should I say my wife has this fight with her mother all the time (my Wife is from Scotland) when her mom asks where I am and my wife says that I am out hunting or at the range my Mother-n-Law goes off the deep end about me hunting or being at the range. She is always saying that I should not have a gun and I should not keep them in the house and all that BS.

Anyway I was really surprised to see this in the Daily Mail and consider that it was even shown(probably because it was a young pretty lady) in a UK paper a big win.

That's an easy one...hot.

I was noticing certain terms and phrasing which seem to be intended to bias the reader such as: "killer," "blood sport," "But killing comes easy to this young lady." The Palin references aren't really needed either.

From reading some comments, the same prevailing attitude that almost cost the UK WWII is still alive, and steady I see.

Good luck with your high crime rates, and Radical Muslim populations! :roll:

Yup! The gun culture is a just that, a culture. We don't take our guns out on special occasions...it's the rare occasion we don't have them! And yes, we shoot everything from paper to bison.

They are a gullible lot. My daughter dated an Irish lad and his perception of the gun culture was based on our entertainment industry...he saw it in the movies.

Advise to the rest of the world about firearms, if it is in our movies assume the opposite!
