Then again when I want a laugh I watch that Alan Partridge-esque Positive shooting training video he put up on Youtube:

Strangely the same happens to me from my Girlfriend when I tell her that I am visualising in my minds eye spending physically intimate times with Cara Delevingne!

Re: Mike Yardley, he'll never change...
Of all of his FB posts over this weekend gone, THATS the one you choose to show he'll never change??
I can only assume Mike was smashing through some serious port and sloe gin this weekend considering his spectacular rants relating to shooting, oh and machines/computers taking over the world and killing us......
I presume he was also watching a Terminator marathon as well...
I'm now not entirely sure which form of shooting he actually finds 'acceptable' and his version of 'true' shooting, considering he was ragging on airsoft, CSR, practical shooting, large (native) game bird shooting and overseas big game shooting
I think clays and F-Class are still ok in his wacky mind, but i'm sure there'll be a problem with those soon enough too

That's the one I chose because that's the one that kicked off all of the other posts... (I'd suggest mainly my influence).Blackstuff wrote:Of all of his FB posts over this weekend gone, THATS the one you choose to show he'll never change??![]()

He wasn't getting his way on that thread though because he doesn't have the power to delete viewpoints he disagrees with, so started posting on his negativeshooting page.
The mans deluded and a hypocrite of the highest order.
Re: Mike Yardley, he'll never change...
Looking at his Facebook page he is having one of his meltdowns when people are not patting him on the back and complementing him on his wisdom! He is moaning about being bullied poor old Mike and making pointless complaints to Facebook as well as doing his usual hollow legal threats.
It is his own fault, he burnt the bridges and decided to throw other shooting disciplines under the bus to "Save shooting from fundamentalists"! It is his own fault that the industry is increasingly regarding him as Persona non grata!
The irony is I agree that to the general public CSR might well look scary ... just the same as his Big Game Hunting. Funny how he thinks that it requires better explanation to the public when it comes to hunting but you can't do the same for CSR!

Really asking that? Take a look at the comments from the general public when that guy went on that BBC to discuss UK shooting.froggy wrote:The irony is I agree that to the general public CSR might well look scary

Let's not be naive.
