Squaregrouper

This was simply a request for a cold range at 3:30. I could not have said it better than squaregrouper. As for "semantics" it sounds to me as though it was mishandled and mis-communicated all around. "cease fire" should never be used to bully someone into a request for a cold range.

Go back and re-read Post #1. You seem to be the only one in this thread who misread it. Actually, I will make it easy for you...

"Like normal, at 3:30, I called cease-fire when I heard the RSO on the speakers at the rifle range, everybody passed the call down the line, and every shooter responded accordingly... except this dude."
This was not a request for a cold range. It was a command.
