As a gun owner and deer hunter, I can’t begin to describe how disgusted I was to see the picture of gun shop owner Tom Engle in a creepy macho pose with his Colt AR-15 assault rifle and boasting of tripling his inventory of assault rifles by the end of the week, while just a few hours down the highway 20 sweet, innocent children and their devoted teachers lie fresh in their caskets.

Besides his incredible insensitivity, it should be obvious to every citizen — gun owner or not, hunter or not, anti-gun or pro-gun — that Engle is devoted to quick profits way more than he is to any twisted idea he has of freedom of arms.

Every responsible gun-owning citizen should be offended by his attitude and outlook.
