STOP supporting the bullshit violent culture!!! JUST STOP!!! [View all]

Do not support movies, tv shows, or video games that celebrate guns. No more Mortal Kombat, Call of Duty, these disgusting CIS shows, these movies that glorify military men blowing the shit out of other people. Just STOP SUPPORTING the culture in general. We are a culture that glorifies violence and it is so sickening. Its not just the NRA assholes, It is every person who buys their kid Call of Duty and think that its normal for a teen to spend their days blowing away imaginary bad people. From an evolution perspective, it is terrifying what we are doing to our kids. YES we need to BAN assault weapons and more, but a major step for us, as a society, is to reject what the manufacturers are trying to sell us. Stop buying fictional books about military operations and shooting people.

Imagine what a great society would look like, and create that. A great society would never have any of these elements in it.

Our gun problem will not be solved until we, as a whole, reject the culture as we reject the guns themselves.
