I think that this small piece of Teds resume may make some of the nay-sayers aware that this man LIVES his life for his passions and is more than qualified and articulate enough to perform the task at hand. Also, he's been a deputy Sheriff in the state of Michigan since 1978, before concealed carry laws of almost any kind existed.
Shooting sports are my hobby and I carry because I can't outrun em anymore. This mans entire life has been involved in hunting and shooting sports.
