America is truely a strange and scarey place.



Sometimes. But, I have a friend who's married to a nice lady who absolutely
hates guns. He wanted to go to one of those full-auto events out in Nevada a
few years back. He bet his wife that she'd love it, and that if he was
wrong, he'd wash all the dishes for a year AND sell some of his guns, in
which she thought he had too much money tied up. (She was right). He won the
bet. She loved shooting stuff. She had to stop complaining FOREVER about
guns in general. And, he still sold some of his collector's pieces, about
$30 grand worth.

I didn't say shooting stuff wasn't fun. I NEVER said shooting stuff
isn't fun. I own guns. Handguns, in fact. At the shooting range there
are man targets that I love. To take them down with the 22 requires a
good head-shot and I can do it 5 out of 5 times. The 9mm I can't hit
the broad side of a barn with.

BUT the sight of that sweet looking 6 year old girl goin' to town on the
machine gun - it's just bizarre. Video games are bad enough for
habituating children to senseless violence, let alone letting them play
with live ammo.



I don't see it as much different than demolishing old drywall with a sledge
hammer, which ends up being very relaxing.



It is VERY different, the fact that you don't see it proves my first
statement (ie, America is a strange and scarey place)
