On Friday's episode of Real Time With Bill Maher, out MSNBC host Rachel Maddow revealed that she really loves shooting guns. At targets. Not people. In fact, her first date with her partner Susan Mikula was at a gun range. Maddow said Mikula's sister is a lifetime member of the National Rifle Association. 

But don't go thinking Maddow is a gun-nut — after talking about how much she enjoys shooting guns in controlled environments, she makes it clear that she doesn't believe those weapons should follow people home. And then she eviscerates Republicans (including those sitting next to her) for blocking gun control legislation. Yep, that's the Maddow we know and love.

Watch the clip, via HBO, below.
