The current gun thing really puzzles me. I grew up with relatives and
their offspring going hunting in the fall. Nobody had more than one
or two long guns. They hiked to spots and checked the area out for
potential game, came back in the fall and first day of hunting was
Thanksgiving day. If they each got their deer they were done for the
season except meeting their quota for duck and goose. Everybody knew
the safe way to handle a gun. Everyone and their male offspring
was/would be in the military. To this day back home, nobody has any
of the military styled assault weapons. I just don't get it at all.
War and killing people is a gruesome, painful thing. I can't imagine
fantasizing and playing war. I'm thankful I never had to because I
know I would kill to protect my own and I would suffer for it
afterwards.
