Superstore chain Fred Meyer to stop selling guns, ammunition

16. Agree to what you're saying, but...

What I said was somewhat in jest to point out some of the paradox and oddness in our American system of consumerism. Guns in grocery stores? Cigarettes in health/drug stores? Maybe I'm just odd and old-fashioned (I am).

I personally would prefer guns and ammo only be sold in gun shops where sales can be tightly controlled and not put on public display to be glorified in family-oriented outlets. I'm saying that because of our out-of-control gun culture - a culture nothing like what we had in my youth in the country. Guns were almost entirely for hunting and varmit control and were highly respected for the danger they can pose.
