28. Maybe the hunting

staters should spend some time in Chicago or other large city and see how guns are used there. And visa versa.

But I just don't understand why anyone would need an AK47. For hunting?

I've fantasized about all the elk, moose, deer, bears, antelope, wolves, bobcats, etc. would gather together and stampede the hunters dressed in orange. Show them who is boss.

I mean, look at the over population of humans!

I grew up on a farm w/ my grandparents. They did not hunt...no guns at all. Just raised beef cattle, dairy, corn and soybeans. Grandpa didn't even kill groundhogs...now my uncles and cousins think it's great fun and required. I don't know what has happened. These dudes get together and all they talk about is guns. It's surreal. I really have no respect for them and spend as little time around them as possible.

I've asked my mother....are you sure I'm not adopted? LOL. The family is all bible-thumping repugnants.
