This event by the College Republicans is gonna piss off the liberals:
The political-minded club holds a shooting social every February, and the theme for its upcoming event on Feb. 22 is “Fall in Love with the 2nd Amendment.”
“It’s kind of like a propaganda thing,” said Rebecca McLaughlin, club chairwoman and business administration junior. “Fall in love with the Second Amendment – find out what it is and appreciate that you have the right to protect yourself and bear arms.”

I appreciate what they’re doing, but Rebecca needs to learn that the word “propaganda” has extremely negative connotations since it implies deception and lies. We’re not Moms Demand Action, Rebecca, we don’t need to lie to win converts to our side.
She said that after shooting for the first time at the social, she felt like Sandra Bullock in the movie, “Miss Congeniality.”
“It just felt really empowering, in that I would actually have a way to defend myself if ever put in a situation that would require it,” she said.
As long as you support the 2nd Amendment, you can feel like Rambo as far as I’m concerned.
“As a Republican club here on campus, we do avidly support the Second Amendment,” she said. “We believe that it’s a right that should be ensured, not only for us, but for future generations. So this event is trying to promote that and help people understand that guns aren’t scary.”
And I congratulate you for hosting it.
