What if it Snows?

Training a child to shoot is vastly different than letting them play with a gun.

 

Now you're talking. We throw ketchup at you when you ask for it. Lol

 

Not really anymore. Today with the cancel culture, if you train a child to be around and properly handle weapons, some do-gooder will report you to child protective services and have you brought up on charges. I also started shooting at a very young age, and in high school in the mid 70's, myself and most of my friends had our rifles and shotguns hanging in the back window of our unlocked pickup trucks ready for an after school hunt. Now days if you swat your child on the back side it's considered child abuse, when in reality, raising a child with no limits to their behavior is more abusive.

 

For the most part, this doesn't really happen in real life. The internet is a very amplified version of our culture and beliefs.

Of course you occasionally run into that one person who didn't get the memo, and they #### everything up.

 

I've lived in California for over 40 years. Tell me again how it doesn't really happen in real life. My state government writes the memos and forces them down our throats.

 

Yep. That little monster grows up to be a self centered hole, until that 1 faithful night in a bar. When he runs his month and a 40 yr old does a tap dance on him.

 

Yeah, what I said before does not apply to California. People are insane out there.

 

Call it whatever name suits you, they all fit. I've lived in several parts of the country and grew up in the Midwest. From the perspective of natural beauty and perfect weather, there isn't anyplace that can beat it here. But too many nut cases moved here over the decades and voted these morons into office who are running the state into the ground. People are leaving the state at a level never seen before, and at the same time they're still allowing more homeless and illegals to come in. Like Margaret Thatcher once said, "The problem with socialism is that eventually you run out of other peoples' money.". That's happening quickly in California as the taxpayers flee, even the progressive ones. My mother in law is in poor health and in her 80's and my parents are both in their late 80's. When they're gone, the wife and I are outta here. Until then, we put up with all the ####.
