(13,081 posts)And, like I said, all of my guns were inherited from dead people. I got rid of them (except for a couple that are literally suitable for, and willed to, a museum).
Shootin' shit is fun.
I don't think people really think about when they're carrying it too far or when they're promoting a national culture that's simply unhealthy. Never considered what the "practice" part of "target practice" really means (hint: y'all ain't practicing for more paper targets. That's why it's called "practice."
. Have you noticed how virtually all of the recent "lone wolf" mass shooters have been wearing "tactical gear?" It seems to be all of the crazies, at least.
Too many of these people are running around the desert, dressed up like soldiers, running "militia" websites, listening to "alternative" facts, and playing Army Man. Fucking overgrown man-children.
I think eventually, for some of these boy-men, they get tired of waiting for their hero fantasies to come true and instead decide to be the villain.
