Democrat want to ban school archery teams because of guns

Democrats are so stupid, they apparently don’t know the difference between guns and bows and arrows. New York Democrats are now looking to ban school archery teams because of guns or something. So progressive from the state that’s brought us Eliot Spitzer, Anthony Weiner and Eric Schneiderman. The reason why Democrats want to ban school archery teams is because you “fire” a bow with an arrow and it promotes gun culture or something.

A New York Democrat wants to ban all high school shooting programs in the state — including air rifle teams and archery clubs.

Archery – as in bows and arrows, America.

“Schools should not be supporting the spread of gun culture in society,” State Assemblywoman Linda Rosenthal told Associated Press. “If parents want their children to have shooting instruction, there are opportunities that have nothing to do with the school.”

Ms. Rosenthal is spearheading legislation that would outlaw archery teams as well as rifle teams.

She said young people “should have limited exposure to guns because they’re not a normal, everyday piece of equipment.”

Her proposed legislation has caused a firestorm of controversy across New York.

“It was shocking to me,” Jillian Zakrzeski told Associated Press. “Nothing bad has ever happened in marksmanship programs.”

The reality is that are about 5,000 shooting and archery clubs for high school and college students — and to the best of our knowledge there is no evidence linking gun violence to air rifle teams or archery teams.
