"Fudd
Slang term for a "casual" gun owner; eg; a person who typically only owns guns for hunting or shotgun sports and does not truly believe in the true premise of the second amendment. These people also generally treat owners/users of so called "non sporting" firearms like handguns or semiautomatic rifles with unwarranted scorn or contempt. "

Was browsing through videos over at YouTube and came across one where the person talked about how much ammo one should have on hand. His argument was that history and studies show that one doesn't need much for self defense, hunting or SHTF. Then I started reading the comments and started thinking that there's a lot of radical people out there who have a lot of guns and lots of ammo. Some were calling the video FUDD propaganda and I had to google search what they meant by that.
On a side note, there is also this definition of FUDD which interestingly got far more dislikes then like:
"A slur against "casual" and/or non-militant gun owners, employed by pro-gun extremists. Derived from the Warner Bros. cartoon character, Elmer Fudd, it implies that anyone who does not carry an assault weapon, militarize their hunting & shooting practice, belong to a militia, and/or advocate for the same with fanatical zeal, is somehow stupid, incompetent with their weapon, and out of touch. Essentially, this allows the extremists to marginalize and discount any gun user who isn't crazy."
