I just posted that elsewhere on the forum this morning. I've been using AOL as my primary email account provider since the late 90s and ever since they bought Huffington Post, their headlines have made me want to vomit from time to time.

I do have to say that once you read the article, not only is it tasteful, but some of those the women are absolutely stunning.

That headline though, grrr.

The former federal prosecutor Stephen L. Meager is the one who finds them disturbing, not the one writing the article. The author was commenting on his essay. Apparently a female cop with shotgun is unsettling to a federal prosecutor? :facepalm:

One of the competition shooters had a finger on the trigger but none of the others did that I could see. Photos were well done as well.

Read about the book being worked on, and the story of the author, a year ago. Glad to see it is done.

I'm sure the HufPo could find a photo of a woman in the Kitchen unsettling as well. It would be demoralizing and demeaning and stereotypical and...
Take one of her in a business suit at a board meeting or in a vinyl cat suit beating a man to bloody shreds and they'd be fine with it. THEN its art!

Rosie O'Donnell is a good example of a female that looks unsettling in the kitchen. Oh wait, she looks unsettling with a gun, or a shoe, or a plastic Walmart bag...

The issue is even finding a kitchen she could fit in.

She's holding the wrong gun.

Shame on me. I am ashamed. I try to take back my comment but am failing.
