I will even go so far as to suggest that some never actually read what Zumbo wrote, or what was written and done after he realised his gaffe.
I read what he wrote, the day he posted it, and followed the firestorm which followed as people started replying on his blog.
Given that similar statements from people identifying as shooters were trotted out in support of bans on semiautomatic firearms here in Oz. I had no sympathy for him. He stepped on his own dick, but in doing so betrayed his fellows.
Until this thread I had largely forgotten him. If he's worked to mitigate the damage that is no more than should be expected, but better than some others have done.
