You made a good point. If the parents OK it, who's going to stop them. Perhaps we need to see some much stronger action taken against parents whose kids have access to the guns and use them illegally. Most of those kids don't have functional parents Any parent who gives a functioning .22LR Rifle to a little kid, one less than 16 at a minimum, is not a functional parent. We did not a problem for years with kids and 22s. Was also required to take a hunter safety course if you wanted a hunting license. Now, the kids get their firearm training from action computer games, such as Grand Theft auto. I have a Sony PS4 that I bought for winter entertainment mostly for sports games like the "Madden Football series and some golf games. I also tried and liked the "Uncharted" series and the Laura Croff "Tomb Raider" series. I bought a couple of those "Modern Warfare" games to try. Didn't care for them at all although they are big hits with kids. Too gory, with constant killing of people with modern weapons. Some of the stuff is very realistic. I can see why young people can become desensitized to blood, guts and killing. |

I can see why young people can become desensitized to blood, guts and killing. Very true. He B westerns of my youth had people killed. But not gory. Now it is a slow motion view of blood and guts. Both removes imagination from movies and desensitized people. |
