In his blog post, he threw out some pretty broad statements that by themselves are ignorant and appear to be dogmatic. But he did say, "And therefore I will cancel any plans to vacation or otherwise visit in Arizona until I learn more." Now if Mr. Frommer wants to tell us what he has learned or why he believes it was dangerous when nobody got hurt, etc. etc... that would be engaging the community. If he just wants to be dogmatic, that's an entirely different matter -- one where I will not be buying or recommending his books or those from his publisher. And I buy a lot of freakin' books in my line of work. I would be good if the gun community could engage with Arthur Frommer.

Now if Mr. Frommer wants to tell us what he has learned or why he believes it was dangerous when nobody got hurt, etc. etc… that would be engaging the community. If he just wants to be dogmatic, that’s an entirely different matter — one where I will not be buying or recommending his books or those from his publisher. And I buy a lot of freakin’ books in my line of work.

We also have the right to say we are going to boycott his guide, I have had several people respond to my article who have said they will no longer will purchase it. They do not even own guns. But to not like his attitude toward freedom of speech and expression. Steve Frommer has a right to speak his mind, and so do we.
