Gene Hoffman On The CBS Evening News

As SayUncle said, “Hey, I know that guy.”

Gene Hoffman was interviewed by CBS correspondent Ben Tracy yesterday on the CBS Evening News with Scott Pelley. He gave a great interview and explained the popularity of the AR-15.

Interestingly enough, they never mentioned that Gene is the chairman of the CalGuns Foundation which is probably just as well. They only identified him as an “Internet entrepreneur”.

One of the better quotes from the interview:

 “Look, the right to firearms, the civil right to firearms, is dangerous
and that’s why it’s a right. This isn’t something that’s free or easy.
There will always be people who disagree with it.” he added.

And another great quote:

“The AR-15 is the kind of mainline rifle these days. It’s the most
popular selling firearm. It’s kind of like talking about a Chevrolet,”
Hoffman said.

Gene is a great spokesman on this issue. He is a good public speaker and comes across really well on TV. He looks like the guy next door which is exactly the image that we need to get out there.

  1. At least it is not an attack piece by the media. And the video-game gun shown doesn't look like an AR-15, this looks more like a 9mm HK sub.
