Honestly I have yet to have an auto fully completed outdoors. They get big. I’ve had a couple almost 48”. But I’ve tried them 3 years in a row and every time I’ve had to finish indoors because of freezing in September.
I share your revulsion. Yet I can convert a perp. Gun psychos???? NO. If we could legally bitch slap those in need of an attitude or moral adjustment? The world would be more civil. Guns and laws protecting those of means give you and many a false sense of "something."
