So what did you do for Valentine's Day? For 22 budding patriots in Florida, the answer was obvious: Go to an Appleseed!

The day started out chilly (for Florida, that is), but by noon it was in the high 60s, dry and clear. A perfect day for shooting. This was a new bunch of shooters that included three adaptive shooters. And it's a good thing they were there: They outshot everyone else. And, yes, we did have a large family that did not show up because of "the cold."

One minor injury: An older shooter ran down range to check a target and pulled a leg muscle (but he's recovering nicely, he says).

A very safe shoot, lots of good attitudes, good storytelling, and good shooting.

The only two shooters to make the score were -- drum roll please -- two of our adaptive shooters -- Brian and Scherri!  But the others will be back in April.   
The Second Amendment is a doomsday provision, one designed for those exceptionally rare circumstances where all other rights have failed -- where the government refuses to stand for reelection and silences those who protest; where courts have lost the courage to oppose, or can find no one to enforce their decrees. However improbable these contingencies may seem today, facing them unprepared is a mistake a free people get to make only once.

-- Justice Alex Kozinski, US 9th Circuit Court, 2003
