My responses on the Nuge board
Later somebody posted we should keep things in perspective and not be so harsh.
And that's it for Ryoushi concerning Mr. Zumbo, it's warming up and I need to get to the range. I do hope Ted Nugent comes through this OK he was just trying to be a friend.
Mr. Zumbo,
I have been on of your biggest critics on, first on the OL blog site then on The High Road Forum. I've also been very vocal saying we should hear you out after you've had a few days to get your head together. And give you a third chance to redeem yourself. It sounds to me though that you STILL only view legitimate private ownership of firearms within the context of hunting.
I think it's time to hang em up sir as far as representing shooters in public.
Happy hunting

Yes lets do put this in perspective. I don't want Mr. Zumbo publicly representing American shooters in any kind of media any longer.
The NRA will no longer be accepting or publishing any of his articles. There's a good reason for that.
Everyone at NRA Publications is angered and confused by the thoughts expressed by Jim Zumbo. We all know him well; he has been a periodic contributor to our magazines and a staunch supporter of the NRA for many years. But we cannot understand what led him to believe or write such things. Of course he's entitled to his opinion, but his opinion is certainly not one shared by the NRA staff. All semi-automatic firearms are just that: semi-automatic. There can be no differentiation between them simply based on external appearance. Mr. Zumbo has never been an employee of the NRA, and we have no plans to publish any articles by him in the future. Contributions by him to NRA media are hereby suspended, effective immediately.
Please know that your support and interest in our publications are deeply appreciated.
Sincerely,
John Zent
Editorial Director
NRA Publications
