Gun Control Reform Activism
In reply to the discussion: Why I don't go to public shooting ranges. [View all]Smackdown2019
(1,284 posts)When I was 8, my friend across the street had a BB Gun and what does 8 year olds do... shoot BBs. Well, he shoot his BB gun as I was standing next to him and one ricochet off a tin shed and grazed my right arm. Nothing serious, but it was a lesson learn on how dangerous guns are, even BB Guns. The world dont need guns, mankind IQ is far more deadly than a bullet. History shows that bow and arrows were dangerous prior to the gun, guns are now more powerful and faster to hit a target. Yes guns can level the playing field if one faces a nut job, but there are other ways to protect. I watched a video of a victim of a gun massacre in texas in 1991, who proclaimed before Congress if she had her gun, her parents would of made it. Why a gun was my thought? Sorry, but if I was in that restaurant, pepper to the eyes would of been my choice. One, it blinds the person, two can not be reused onto you. Three, if you miss with a gun and hit others, you are not helping the problem.
If one goes to the public shooting range, money was spent on shells for what? Ego or power trip? Again, the IQ plays a big part of the wannabe protector with military style gear. All it does label you as a wacko!
