James Yeager is the Guy Fieri of the gun culture

Mi2Tall whipped out that gem in conversation today.  Tam said he was the Honey Boo Boo of the gun industry as well, but I like Mi2Tall's assertion better.  Why?  because I refuse to believe that anyone likes and admires Honey Boo Boo.  I feel people watch that shi... uh, show like a trainwreck.  Abject horror and fascination.

Fieri, on the other hand has people that actually look up to him.  People that rally want to 'ride the Guy Express to flavortown'.  He is a douche in shitty sunglasses and frosted tips.

ALL I AM IS MARKETING!!!!

In case you have not been following the Saga of Yeager, here it is in a nutshell:
-James Yeager is a natural born tool that comes back from a being a contractor in the sandbox and starts a firearms training school
-Some controversy starts about Yeager's service
-Yeager starts making training videos with cameramen downrange
-Yeager makes a whole bunch of videos online that are completely mock-worthy
-And he gets his panties in a wad when people mock them
-Then he challenges people to a duel
-Now he makes a series of videos that says he will shoot gun grabbers.
-... and he gets his concealed carry license yanked for being a public menace

Would you trust this guy?  Not me.

Yeager is a tool. He has done damage to our cause.
