two men pull guns on each other

Golfers called off the course as two men pull guns on each other during argument

Maybe, JUUUUUUST Maybe, we've got a gun issue. Oh, and this is NOT the way to stop sandbaggers.

I thought this was going to be a thread about Rory and J. Day playing a practice round together today.

Why do so many idiots have access to guns? Maybe we can screen for that. Is there an idiot test we can administer? I guess we could start with the USGA, but after those folks, ...

I'm going with yes. I mean, you can only kill one at a time unless it's a REALLY big window, and it would only impact people that fit through windows so I guess all the fat people are safe (which seems to be the majority of the population), and really, how many tall buildings are there to create a high enough fall to kill people unless you live in a city (and lets be honest, the cities are too crowded anyway), and most windows that high are probably bullet proof so... I think we're good.

Tall buildings and weak windows don't kill people; gravity kills people.

Or so the NTBA's tag line would say ;)

When idiots are allowed to easily buy almost any gun they choose it becomes a gun problem. Therefore we have a gun problem.

Don't tell the USGA that. They've never heard of gravity.... it's in the rules.

Good luck waiting for someone to help you or you family if God forbid it is needed..... Then again, some people like chalk and yellow tape...... We have an idiot/criminal problem.... No moral compass

Well I guess one of them had to be the good guy with a gun right? Cause that is the only thing that can stop a bad guy with a gun.

No need for me to wait I'm locked and loaded. And I'm done with the gun thing.

It's "more likely than not" that this thread will turn into exactly what you think it will turn into.

In the "wild wild west", where everyone carried guns at all times, it was very common for law enforcement to disarm everyone that entered the city limits around people, or be sent to jail if caught breaking the law and lose their weapons and/or lose their lives getting in a gun fight with law enforcement over the matter. So this issue has been going round and round for a LONG time.

I'm trying to envision a reason why I'd carry a gun with me onto a golf course in the first place.

Bears? Gaggles of Canadian geese? Rabbid raccoons?

The way some get worked up over slow play and cargo shorts I see a recipe for disaster.

19th hole... nothing better than some raccoon my friend.

Actually, I think in this case the guy felt his handicap was padded so he left and got his gun and came back to the course to confront the man. Must be a hell of a nassau.

If I lived in Alaska and played a course that was known for grizzly bears, I'd pack some heat. Problem is, this happens at the local muni in the suburbs now.
