I was surfing my High Def channels before packing it in tonight and caught a program called 'Lock & Load'. It was about a family owned gun shop in Colorado and all the cusomers who came in to try out & buy shootin' irons. Couldn't believe it...I bet about 40% of the customers brought their small children in...mostly toddlers. Some of the older (8-10 ) kids were passed what looked like auto assault weapons to play with. Man...talk about a gun culture...a lot of the customers already owned numerous weapons. Up here the cops and a local camera store are giving away Sony point & shoot cameras for each handgun/rifle passed in. After the turned in guns are examined and checked for any history, they are destroyed. Your suck buddy Harry LOVES to talk about his guns. |

After the turned in guns are examined and checked for any history, they are destroyed. My son and daughter, now 25 and 30 were brought up with guns. Each got to shoot at age eight. My grandpa gave me a .22 when I was eight. My dad had to take me to shoot it, which he did until I was a little older, and I snuck it out. Then, I bought one when I was about 12 and kept it at a friend's house. My son shot a twelve gauge at eight. My daughter fired pistols and rifles one time, and after that never had one ounce of interest, AND NO CURIOSITY TO GO SNOOPING IN THE GUNS. She saw what they were, understood what they did, and she was a smart kid. My son still likes to shoot, but just graduated, and is working on masters and doesn't shoot or hunt or fish much. Kids raised with guns are different than kids forbidden to touch guns, or kids who are raised with guns and the wrong attitude. Steve |

I let them fire a handgun, while I kept a grip on it, with hearing protection of course. After that they didn't want anything to do with them. |

Steve I assume they moved away from bum**** (and your influence) and haven't felt the need to shoot anything. If we're lucky, the ignorance in your bloodline will stop at you. |
