    Nobody knows you from a bar of soap, its common courtesy to introduce yourself to others, get involved in conversation etc before you go making it seem like your sole purpose for being here is to get something for yourself, money or no money is beside the point. We let a few select people on our property to shoot and its because they have been polite, courteous, we have got to know them and we trust them to leave things as they found them, take all safety precautions using their firearms,take heed of our own on farm health and safety policy etc etc, no caretaker of the land worth their salt lets anyone roam round their property with a firearm because they waved some cash under their nose.
    What if you filled multiple glasses with varying amounts of beer, and tapped them in a way which produced amazing music? Are you trying to argue that musicians don't offer anything of value to society, and that a humble glass cannot be used as an instrument?

    Also - it's obvious the OP isn't a bar of soap. Have you ever seen a bar of soap get behind a computer?
