When we were kids, we drove around with uncased shotguns and rifles that were in a gun rack that was mounted in the back window of your pick up truck for all to see

And people left their trucks unlocked when they went into the store. That did change though as the years passed by.

Youâll be happy to know that in small towns in America. A lot of people still donât lock their vehicles & they still leave their keys in them and they donât lock the doors to their homes.
Yes, times are changing, but some areas are still resistant to it.

Yea you do that now and they wonât be there when you walk out of the store lol. What kills me is something that will NEVER EVER be seen again and that is in high school here at lunch break or when school was out for the day be it deer season or just hunting squirrel or rabbit the guys would pop open their trunks of their cars and show off their shotguns ( normally 16 ga. back then, it was the most popular round ) and no one cared at all and sometimes a teacher who hunted would stop by and say â thatâs a nice one there â and the thing was no one ever got shot ever! Not like this nutty generation now where kids pollute their minds with video games where they can shoot a hundred people a day for points! And if anyone says â Awwwh your nuts about all that stuff â Well just have a look at the statistics and match how many kids and anyone else is killed by some dumb raised by their mom who worked every day and left her kid there all day with a stack of microwave pizzas and some Mac n cheeses and his games and their X boxes that never had a real father figure to teach them anything
Itâs not video games.
Hear! Hear!
Took my hunterâs safety and firearms safety course in our townâs elementary school gymnasium. All the guns and ammo lying on the table in front of us. Nobody played around with guns.
We had never even heard of such a thing as a âschool shooterâ. Had we even heard mention of a thing like that, we would have looked at you like you were out of your mind.
Before school in junior and senior high, we loaded our shotguns in the trunk of our car with ammo and headed to school. Showed off our shotguns in the parking lot to friends and teachers passing by. After school meant time for a pheasant hunt, then head home for chores and dinner.
But that was when America still believed in you.
America donât believe in you nor freedom anymore. America believes now in a strong police/ surveillance state.
And you got it, suckers!

Maybe not exclusively video games but the fact that most kids anymore donât have a father figure to show them their azz from a whole in the ground and if that isnât true we live in two different worlds⊠fresh, do you just like disagreeing with someone or something? I know dan good and well I didnât go to far off the reservation geesh

Video games are fine for normal kids who play responsibly and realize itâs just a fun game.
Theyâre not fine for abnormal kids who are loaded up on psychotropic drugs, have âdepressionâ, talk constantly about killing and then ask single mom for an AR-15 for Christmas, to which single mom replies, âSure, hunny, whatever you say.â
If video games arenât dangerous and effective, why then does the army utilize them to train soldiers, pilots to fly planes, etc.?
Video games are just like anything else. Too much of it and especially in the wrong context, is no good.
Even happy, healthy kids get yelled at for screwing around with smashing electronic dots for hours on end and not getting their homework done.
For an excellent discussion on the subject of video games and their effects, read Lt. Col. Grossmanâs books: âOn Killingâ and âOn Combat.â Really, really excellent stuff!
