2 A Word From The Publisher October is my favorite month of the Year. The weather is usually terrific, cooler temperatures have arrived with Fall. Fall brings hunting season and many folks will be focused on that and less on Skeet shooting opportunities. That is okay too, but why can t we have October weather in June, July and August when we really need it! Election time is upon us and if you are not sick of it yet, you soon will be. I try not to get in to politics here, because I don t want to offend anyone. I would like to think there is hope for you even if you don t agree with me on politics. Those of you who know me know that I am a very conservative person so you can probably guess I am one of those folks who clings to his guns and religion. Actually, I am not real happy with any of the candidates. I would personally like to resurrect Ronald Reagan and put Sarah Palin in charge of the Department of Energy and the EPA. I respect your right to disagree with me. What I do not respect is anyone who says they are undecided in our Presidential contest. No candidate is perfect, but if you don t know who you will vote for yet, perhaps you should stay home on election day. It scares me to think that our futures are about to be determined by people who are struggling to make up their minds. Are they so uninformed that they don t understand their choices? Or is it, they are embarrassed by their choice last time and don t have the courage to admit they made a mistake? If you don t know what you believe in and you don t have the cognitive thinking skills to be able to analyze the choices and make a decision, stay home on election day! If you are concerned about the America we will be leaving to our Grandchildren make your voice known. As for me, I live in Louisiana and I am used to holding my nose when I vote. [That comment makes sense to those of us who live in Louisiana and remember Edwin Edward s instructions to voters in his last gubernatorial campaign.] If you are going to the World have a great time. I can t make it this year, but I am cheering you on. While you are in San Antonio, be sure to eat at Los Barrios or La Hacienda de Los Barrios [see Dining on the Road in this issue] and think of me when you do it. Until we meet again in these pages or on the Skeet field, I am wishin you 8. Doug Frey Page 2

3 HAT SHOOT EVENT Raymond Haik, MD shot a 50 straight in the 20 Gauge Event at the Dog Days Open I Skeet shoot at Red Chute Shotgun Sports Club on Barksdale AFB on August 18, Raymond s efforts not only earned him a holey hat, but he won the 20 Championship outright. Raymond continued to shoot very well that day and finished with a 193/200, earning HOA Champion honors. He was also tied for HAA with Wayne Tanner with a 234/250. Raymond came in second in the shootoff taking HAA Runner Up honors. Raymond s home club is the T. O. Toby Bancroft, Sr. Memorial Gun Club in West Monroe, Louisiana. He has been shooting registered Skeet since Good shooting Raymond! Page 3

4 HAT SHOOT EVENT Gary Edwards shot his first 100 straight at the Arkansas Open in July taking RU in the 20 Gauge. He followed that up with a 100 in the 28 Gauge Event at the Terrell Rifle and Pistol Club/Ellis Co. Sportsmans Club joint shoot. He shot another 100 straight in the 28 Gauge Event at the Zone VI Championships and a 100 in the.410 Bore at the Southwest Classic. At the Cowtown Open Gary shot a 100 straight in the 12 and 28 Gauge events and claimed the HOA with 396/400. Gary tells me he has shot two more 100 straights in the 28 since then. Gary has been shooting registered skeet since Page 4

5 SKEETER S PONDERINGS In my experience, mistakes are usually predicated by erroneous thought processes.. Then, sometimes they are predicated by a total lack of thought." Skeeter s Word of the Month: Hipatitis (N.): terminal coolness. Page 5

7 Dog Days Open I Fifteen shooters gathered at Red Chute Shotgun Sports Club on August 18 to participate in the Dog Days Open I. The weather guesser predicted a 60% chance of rain. Skeet shooters being the eternal optimists we are, we did not put much stock in that forecast. The rain held off until the shoot-offs were finished. The clouds provided relief from the sun's heat and we all had a great time. This shoot was a 50 target venue with all guns and doubles. That certainly makes it a bit easier for the referees and shooters alike in the August heat. The other side effect is an increased number of shootoffs which means more fun! Clay Rich, Wayne Tanner and Doug Walker [pictured below] got things started off right, each posting a 49. Page 7

8 Dog Days Open I Raymond Haik was hot today! He shot the only 50 straight claiming the 20 Champion honors. Wayne Tanner won a no show shoot-off with Walter Williams for 20 Gauge Runner Up. Pictured below from left to right are Doug Walker, Bill Schodlatz, Raymond Haik, MD, Wayne Tanner and Troy Scallion. All of these gentlemen are regulars at the shoots held at Red Chute Shotgun Sports Club. Their support is much appreciated. Page 8

9 Dog Days Open I Clay Rich was shooting well today. He posted a 49, as did Walter Williams, III. In the picture below are Clay Rich, Katelynn Price, Doug Frey and Caleb Castro. This was Katelynn s first registered Skeet shoot. This high school senior from Marshall, Texas has been shooting skeet in the 4-H program and wanted to shoot in a registered tournament. Welcome to the sport Katelynn! We were also happy to have Caleb Castro from Maurice, Louisiana shooting with us this weekend. This is Caleb s first year shooting registered targets. We will see more from Caleb who shoots with the Crawfish squad from Lafayette. Page 9

10 Dog Days Open I Raymond Haik really was having a great day. His 49 in the.410 Bore event earned him the Champion honors in that event and clinched his HOA victory as well. Walter Williams, III shot a 48 in the.410 Bore earning the Runner Up honors. Pictured below are Ben McIntyre, Codie Lindsay, Bill McIntyre, Referee Kip Kiplinger, Orville Winover, Jr. and Walter L. Williams, III [shooting low 8]. Page 10

18 The Dog Days of Summer Everyone knows that the dog days of summer occur during the hottest and muggiest part of the season. Webster defines dog days as: 1. the period between early July and early September when the hot sultry weather of summer usually occurs in the northern hemisphere 2. a period of stagnation or inactivity. But where does the term come from? Why do we call the hot, sultry days of summer dog days? In ancient times, when the night sky was unobscured by artificial lights and smog different groups of peoples in different parts of the world drew images in the sky by connecting the dots of stars. The images drawn were dependent upon the culture: The Chinese saw different images than the Native Americans, who saw different pictures than the Europeans. These star pictures are now called constellations, and the constellations that are now mapped out in the sky come from our European ancestors. They saw images of bears, (Ursa Major and Ursa Minor), twins, (Gemini), a bull, (Taurus), and others, including dogs, (Canis Major and Canis Minor). The brightest of the stars in Canis Major (the big dog) is Sirius, which also happens to be the brightest star in the night sky. In fact, it is so bright that the ancient Romans thought that the earth received heat from it. Look for it in the southern sky (viewed from northern latitudes) during January. In the summer, however, Sirius, the dog star, rises and sets with the sun. During late July Sirius is in conjunction with the sun, and the ancients believed that its heat added to the heat of the sun, creating a stretch of hot and sultry weather. They named this period of time, from 20 days before the conjunction to 20 days after, dog days after the dog star. The conjunction of Sirius with the sun varies somewhat with latitude. And the precession of the equinoxes (a gradual drifting of the constellations over time) means that the constellations today are not in exactly the same place in the sky as they were in ancient Rome. Today, dog days occur during the period between July 3 and August 11. Although it is certainly the warmest period of the summer, the heat is not due to the added radiation from a far-away star, regardless of its brightness. No, the heat of summer is a direct result of the earth's tilt. Copyright 1999, 2011 by Jerry Wilson Printed with the permission of Jerry Wilson Page 18

19 Dog Days Open II On Sunday, August 19th, 2012 the T. O. Toby Bancroft, Sr. Memorial Gun Club hosted the Dog Days II. This shoot is a companion to the Dog Days 1 held at Red Chute Shotgun Sports Club the day before. Louisiana shooters who participated in both get credit for a Fixture Shoot towards All State Team qualification. Seventeen shooters participated on this warm day. Manny Pilgrim and Harry Hawthorne [pictured below] were in a shoot-off for 12 Gauge Champion. Page 19

23 Dog Days Open II The weather guessers were off again, as predicted rain did not materialize. There was cloud cover and typical Louisiana humidity. By the time the Doubles Event came around, everyone was, well let s say Less than fresh. Competitors were getting wet from the inside out. That said, everyone was still having fun, as you can tell from the smiles on the faces of Carla McNamee. Caleb Castro, Glynn Kiper, Walter L. Williams, III, Harry Hawthorne and Charles The Hammer Richardson in the picture below. Harry smoked 48 of 50 targets in the Doubles Event claiming the Champion Honors. Charles Richardson took Runner Up with a 45. Page 23

Williams and Charles Richardson Manny Pilgrim and Raymond Haik Glynn Kiper Ben McIntyre In addition to good targets we had a delicious barbeque brisket feast with potato salad, beans and all the fixings for lunch. There was a smorgas board of homemade desserts. Page 26

27 Dog Days Open II Having a great shoot is not possible without good referees. Finding them is the challenge. Who would want to come stand in the hot sun and watch everyone else have a good time? We were blessed to have Paul Williamson and Carla McNamee [pictured above] referee the Dog Days Open II. Thank you Paul and Carla! Thank you Walter Williams, II, Harry Hawthorne, Charles Richardson and the members of the T. O. Toby Bancroft, Sr. Memorial Gun Club for putting on a great shoot! We look forward to shooting with you next year. Doug Frey Page 27

28 What Not To Do On A Skeet Field 1. Don t show up late. 2. Don t talk when someone is shooting. 3. Don t stand too far to the left or right of a shooter, so that you are in their peripheral vision. 4. Don t scream for the target or speak too softly. I was recently spooked by a panther scream call. I lost a target. Loud calls make it difficult for referees on the adjacent fields. Soft calls make it difficult for your referee. 5. Don t tell a shooter he has a good score going. 6. Don t throw hulls when you miss. Ever! 7. Don t call a target dead if the referee didn t see a chip. It does not matter what you see. I t o n l y matters what the referee sees. A few months ago I was visiting with James George at a Skeet shoot. James made a comment about things he saw people do that they just should not do when they shoot Skeet. I told James that he should write those down and share them with our readers. James agreed to do that and a few days later he sent me his list of Don t Do s on a Skeet field. Some of these are manners and sportsmanship and some are things that effect your game. Thank you for sharing James! 8. Don t shoot your option shot without resetting. Lots of options are missed on that one. 9. Do say [to yourself] over and over again, I can hit this target. If you keep saying that, you will be right. Speak [think] only positive. Don t beat yourself up. 10. Don t practice missing. Don t stand in one spot loading and shooting as fast as you can. That does nothing to improve your chances of breaking a target. Work on the seconds just before the pull moment and your scores will improve. Problem targets should be practiced on when you are shooting well. Practice doing things correctly and not the opposite. 11. Some fields have a blind spot due to the background or the sun. Don t shoot until you can see the target. Page 28

29 What Not To Do On A Skeet Field 12. I saved the biggest no-no for last! Don t lift your head! Stay in the gun. Many shooters I see have it in their mind that it s a race to see how fast they can dismount their gun. You will never see AAA shooters dismount from a shot fast. I can teach most shooters how to stop this bad habit for $100. We will take ten $10 bills. We will place one on your stock between your cheek and the stock each time you shoot. I get to keep the ones that drop when you shoot. It will not take you long to learn to keep your face glued to the gun stock! Some of these Don ts have been mistakes that I have made. I am working on them and improving my game as time goes on. One thing I have gotten better at is making adjustments and staying positive. The last three are the most important lessons to learn. Master those and you will see your averages go up! James George Thank you James! We are always looking for articles of interest to Skeet shooters. If you have something that would be of interest to our readers, we invite you to share your information, writings, photos, and experiences with us.

31 QUOTABLE QUOTE I know no safe depository of the ultimate powers of the society but the people themselves; and if we think them not enlightened enough to exercise their control with a wholesome discretion, the remedy is not to take it from them, but to inform their discretion by education. I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them. I m a great believer in luck, and I find the harder I work the more I have of it. Thomas Jefferson 3 rd President of the United States of America Page 31

Directions: 1. In a bowl combine bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese and basil. Mix well. 2. In another bowl beat together egg whites and salt. 3. Dip eggplant slices into egg whites then the crumb mixture turn to coat both sides in crumbs. 4. Spray baking sheet with Olive Oil cooking spray. Place eggplant slices on the baking sheet. Spray each slice with the Olive Oil cooking spray. 5. Bake 15 minutes and remove pan and turn slices. Spray each slice again with Olive Oil cooking spray and bake for 15 minutes more. 6. To assemble the casserole, spray a 13 x 9 baking dish with Olive Oil cooking spray. Spoon 1 cup pasta sauce over the bottom of the dish, put a layer of eggplant slices, and put more sauce and then top with mozzarella cheese. Garnish with dried parsley. Bake uncovered for 20 minutes.

36 Dining on The Road Los Barrios Mexican Restaurant, San Antonio, Texas If you are going to the World Shoot and you are thinking about eating Tex-Mex food, you will have many choices. Los Barrios is one of my favorites. We wrote about it in This article is a rework of that article. We enjoyed Los Barrios so much, we just thought we should tell this story again for our new readers. About 17 years ago (as best I can recollect) Debbie and I took our kids on a family vacation to San Antonio, Texas. We spent about 5 days there touring the usual sights, including the River Walk, the Alamo and other missions, and Sea World. We enjoyed the offerings at a number of restaurants, but one in particular was a life changing event. Early in our trip, we visited Los Barrios Mexican Restaurant. This restaurant is located on Blanco Street and is not really close to any of the sights we were going to see. It was featured as the cover story on one of those tourism magazines you pick up in places that provide tourists with information, maps, brochures, etc. The cover of the magazine featured a plate of Steak Fajitas and a Botanas Platter that looked so good that Debbie and I just had to check it out. We walked into the restaurant and handed the magazine to our waiter and said we want this. Our son, Michael, was a very picky eater. He liked steak, pizza and hamburgers. The hamburgers had to be served with meat and bread only. He would not touch it if it had mayo, mustard, lettuce, tomatoes or anything else normally found on a good burger. So Michael (who was about 8 or 9 years old) ordered a burger. Debbie and our daughter, Kathleen, enjoyed the Botanas Platter. I had the Fajitas and Michael had a burger. Michael asked during the meal if he could taste some of my steak. I said sure Buddy. Now two days later, after leaving Sea World, Debbie and I started to work a plan to con the kids into going back to Los Barrios to eat. While stopped at a light, I posed the question as to where would we want to eat the next night. Before we had a chance to say another word, Michael says Dad, can we go back to Los Barrios and eat some of that steak? Naturally Debbie and I pretended to acquiesce. From that day on, Michael became a Fajita eating machine. I must say that he now usually orders the chicken and steak combo. Michael is a now a United States Marine stationed in Okinawa. I want you to know that he actually found a restaurant in Okinawa that serves fajitas! Page 36

Mrs. Barrios is no longer with us, but her children, Louis, Diana and Teresa have continued her legacy with a nationally recognized restaurant. Over the years, we have sent many friends to dine at Los Barrios and all have enjoyed it. The restaurant has become quite famous since Diana Barrios Trevino (daughter of the founder Viola Barrios) trounced Bobby Flay in a Puffy Taco Throw-down on the Food Network. The family owns two restaurants, Los Barrios, at 4223 Blanco Rd. inside Loop 410 in San Antonio and La Hacienda de Los Barrios, at Redland Road, San Antonio. These restaurants serve Tex-Mex and Continental food. Their breakfast menu includes American and Tex-Mex offerings. Monday - Friday they have lunch specials from 11AM - 3 PM and Early Bird Specials from 3 PM to 5:30 PM. The Dinner menu includes the Tex-Mex standards like Fajitas, Tacos, Tamales, Enchiladas. But there is so much more. The Botanas a la Mexicana is excellent. They have four variations on Nachos alone. The menu is lengthy and choices are numerous. Come early as you will want to take some time deciding. While attending the World shoot in 2009, Debbie and I visited both restaurants with John & Barbara Ellis. The food was every bit as good as we remembered. Doug Frey La Hacienda de Los Barrios Redland Rd.

38 True or False By: Paul L.P. Giambrone, III The last few tournaments that I have been to, I have seen several younger shooters coming on strong and it got my mind driving down memory lane. I had the blessing of being able to shoot with my father and close friends for a number of years in my early and late teen years. Those were some of the best times of my life and I think most of us feel that way about those teen years, especially the Summer time. Thinking of those Summers spent traveling around going to different places with our friends and family and not worrying about school! That was the life! Going back to those times reminded me of school and tests and all that good stuff How were we measured in school? By grades! I grew up on an 8-point grade scale, some are 10-points, and some are only 6 points! Think about that You had to be 90%, 92%, or 94% correct in order to get the highest grade available. That seems very tough! I know when I got an A that it was an achievement and it didn t require me being 100%. The point being is that it takes a lot to get a good grade or pass a test! It is hard work and a process. What about passing a driving test or a skill test? Most tests out there do not require people to be 100% perfect and most answers are either right or wrong, not a lot of gray area, except of course, on essay and short answer questions where it is more discussion (keep this in mind for later). Let s focus more on the multiple choice or better yet, true/ false tests where you have one right and one wrong Your Foundation for Perfect Skeet with Paul Giambrone, III is available for purchase! The DVD shows you how to build a solid foundation for your skeet game and also helps shooters troubleshoot some common problems they may face. You can order the DVD now for only $59.95 plus shipping! Please info@gsclinics.com to order your DVD today! answer. I know I have taken guesses here and there on multiple choice tests and some were right and some were wrong. Most of the time, when I went with my first instinct, I would be correct. When I would think or try to analyze too much, I would more than likely change my answer from the correct one to the wrong one. You would think after doing that a few times that logic would kick in to where I wouldn t do that! I continued to struggle with this throughout my years not only in school, but in skeet shooting as well. See, on some days where I was feeling a little off I would start off ok and feel fine, then I would start paying attention to my breaks. If I broke a couple of targets on the back end or the front end, I would start worrying and try to Page 38

39 fix the problem. The issue here is that there is no problem with my shooting, but your brain starts to think that there is because you are looking for that dead center break, instead of just letting it happen. Hey, sometimes we make a great shot and just put slightly too much lead on the bird. That doesn t constitute as a bad shot, just means you were slightly on the front edge of a target that is only 4 and a half inches in diameter at 20 yards. Sounds like a good shot when it is put that way, doesn t it? True or False (Continued) Some of the hardest hits I have on targets come from being totally relaxed, yet focused. I am focused on seeing the target, not the break or the end result. Think about some of your best moments and hardest hits. How much of this thinking were you doing? If I had to guess, I would say not very much. It is a common topic I bring up to my students. Thus far, everyone has told me that when they were really shooting well, very little thinking was going on, but when they did not shoot well, they were analyzing every little thing, mostly their breaks. So would logic suggest continuing down this path when you start to shoot poorly, or try to relax and let things happen instead of trying to force them to happen? I can think of several times where shooters have told me they shot poorly for a round or two, then finish up with a couple of very strong rounds. What happened here? Their minds finally settled down after a few misses and became focused on the targets, instead of the endless things that could be going wrong. You all have A s right now; you just have to maintain them. Let s take a step back and take a look at a true/false question on a test. When I would come across a question I wasn t sure on, I would certainly try to take my best guess. If that guess was the correct answer, I would be relieved that I got it correct, but would also tell myself I could study better for the next test. Keep in mind during that test I would not change anything. I said that I would prepare better for the next test. The reason I like this test question best is because there is only one right answer and one wrong answer. Just like in skeet, we only have Page 39

40 two options, either we hit the target or we don t. There is no partial credit; there is only full credit or no credit. So why do we get caught up so much on the partial hits? What are we so worried about if we are getting full credit for the shot we just made, even if it wasn t a perfect shot? We are human! We are going to make some non-perfect shots and still break targets because we are shooting shotguns. In order to break a 100 straight, there are generally a couple of these non-perfect shots that shooters have to make in order to score the 100. Most of the time, a 98 or a 99 is just as good performance-wise as a 100, the shooter just didn t get that 1 or 2 extra targets they needed on those non-perfect shots. Anyways, back to grading the breaks, I know sometimes that your hits can tell you what you are doing, but most of the time it is more of a distraction than a helping aide. For example, if you are consistently hitting the front of the target, also known as the money side of the target, why would you want to change that? My argument is if you are breaking it consistently in the same spot and feel you are doing everything correctly, why change? The old phrase If it isn t broke, don t fix it comes to mind.

44 Help Wanted Most gun clubs have a few individuals who are passionate about shotgun sports and who do most of the work putting on shoots and dealing with the multitude of details involved. If you are one of those people, thank you for your hard work and for caring enough about the shotgun sports to do something to preserve them for future generations. Most gun clubs have many more shooters who really enjoy the sport, but somehow never have the time to pitch in and help. They usually justify this in their minds many ways and I don t want to get into anyone s business here. That said, if skeet is to prosper, perhaps even survive as a sport, it will take more involvement from more people. What can you do? There are many little things that you can do to help. There is a list on the next page of this issue. At the Red Chute Gazette, we are doing what we can to help promote skeet through providing free advertising to clubs holding registered skeet shoots. All we ask in return is that the clubs provide us with a shoot report and a few pictures so we can show everyone how much fun they missed. The Red Chute Gazette Deal is a deal. Unfortunately, the clubs are having a very hard time getting volunteers to act as Club Reporters and provide us with a write-up and pictures. If you would volunteer to help promote skeet at your club, please contact Doug Frey at (318) or publisher@redchutegazette.com Page 44

46 Louisiana Ghost Story This happened about 6 months ago in Louisiana on Hwy 57, just outside of Dulac, a little town in the bayou country of Louisiana, and while it sounds like an Alfred Hitchcock tale, it's for real. An Ohio businessman, Saul Rubins, abandoned his disabled vehicle on the side of the road, and attempted to hitchhike. The night was pitch dark in the middle of a thunderstorm. Time passed slowly and no cars went by. It was raining so hard he could hardly see his hand in front of his face. Suddenly, through the sheets of rain, he saw a car moving slowly, approaching and appearing ghost-like in the rain. It slowly and silently crept toward him and stopped. Desperately needing a ride, Saul jumped in the car and closed the door. Only then did he realize that there was no one behind the wheel and no sound of an engine to be heard over the rain. Again the car crept silently forward and Saul was terrified, but too scared to think of jumping out and running. He saw that the car was approaching a sharp curve and, still too scared to jump out, he started to pray and beg for his life; he was sure the ghost car would go off the road and into the bayou and he would then drown! But just before the curve, a shadowy hand appeared at the driver's window, reached in and turned the steering wheel, guiding the car safely around the bend.. Then, just as silently, the hand disappeared through the window and Saul was alone again. Paralyzed with fear, Saul watched the hand reappear every time they reached a curve. Finally, scared nearly to death, Saul had all he could take, jumped out of the car, and ran to town. Wet and in shock, he walked into Buster's Coffee Stop. Voice quavering, he ordered a cup of black chicory coffee and then told everybody about his supernatural experience. The room became silent and everybody got goose bumps when they realized Saul was not just some talkative drunk but was telling the truth about what had happened to him. About 30 minutes later two Cajuns, dripping wet, walked into Buster's and one says to the other, "Look, Boudreaux, ders dat idiot that jumped in our car when we wuz pushin' it in the rain!" Page 46

55 To all Louisiana Citizens Several uninformed "authorities" have recently released false information about the upcoming Act 874 that will be on the Louisiana ballot in November. Under our current Louisiana constitution, the legislature is not supposed to pass any laws abridging our right to keep and bear arms unless the law involves concealed carry. Note that they can pass any restriction on concealed carry that strikes their fancy, even an outright ban. That in itself should cause you to support Act 874. The legislature, however, on any number of occasions has refused to believe that constitutional limits apply to its power. Laws that restrict our gun rights do get passed. Enter the Louisiana judicial system, the branch of government that is supposed to protect us poor citizens from the legislature when it oversteps its constitutional authority. Unfortunately, the Louisiana Supreme Court has ruled that a law that infringes on your right to keep and bear arms is constitutional if it passes the "rational basis" test. Under the rational basis test, the court asks itself whether the legislature had a rational basis for passing the law in question. If the court can discern any rational basis for the law, it will declare the law to be constitutional. This is the current state of Louisiana law under the existing Article I, Section 11 of its constitution. The 1974 Constitution currently reads: 11. Right to Keep and Bear Arms Section 11. The right of each citizen to keep and bear arms shall not be abridged, but this provision shall not prevent the passage of laws to prohibit the carrying of weapons concealed on the person. Act 874, should it pass in November, provides NO carte blanche authority for the legislature to restrict concealed carry. If the new amendment is passed, the Constitution will read: 11. Right to Keep and Bear Arms Section 11. The right of each citizen to keep and bear arms is fundamental and shall not be infringed. Any restriction on this right shall be subject to strict scrutiny. It states, in very clear language, the standard of review that must be applied by a Louisiana court. "Strict scrutiny" review requires that the court either find a compelling state interest for the law or declare it unconstitutional. Finding a compelling state interest is a much higher threshold than merely needing a rational basis. Further, under strict scrutiny, the restriction must be tailored narrowly to only restrict the targeted behavior, while protecting the rights of those not targeted. Page 55

56 To put it another way, under rational basis, the presumption is that a restriction is valid unless there is no way to support it. In stark contrast, under strict scrutiny, the presumption is that a restriction is invalid unless there is no way to avoid it. This is a HUGE difference. Act 874 is very good for gun owners. Several key Louisianans have done us a great disservice by making disparaging statements about this potential improvement to our constitution. In some cases, the statements are made from ignorance. To believe otherwise would be to believe they are being made by anti-gun activists attempting to trick gun owners into voting against a significant pro-gun amendment. The Ballot on Nov 6th will read: Do you support an amendment to the Constitution of the State of Louisiana to provide that the right to keep and bear arms is a fundamental right and any restriction of that right requires the highest standard of review by a court? (Amends Article I, Section 11) Hopefully we have enlightened our members and ask everyone to support Act 874 on November 6, Please VOTE YES on November 6 and urge others to do the same! Daniel E. Zelenka, II President, Louisiana Shooting Association Attorney-at-Law For more information contact the Louisiana Shooting Association at the link below: Page 56
