I was going to take this post elsewhere and decided that I need not start a battle, but he will probably grow up to be a fearful person who shreiks at the sight of a firearm. It is all part of what I call the pussification of America. Guns are bad, bad people will hurt me, and I can only depend on someone else to help me when the shit hits the fan. Kids don't fight anymore, and if they do, they get suspended from school, expelled from school etc. My elementary school defused any fights by sending us to our gym teacher who geared us up with a headgear and boxing gloves. One kid got the shit kicked out of him and the situation was over. We were taught to stick up for ourselves. Kids were given BB guns and firearms at a young age, and killed with them. Firearms were in many homes and looked at as tools for food and recreation. How many kids today can say that they shot .22 in the back yard at cans? Now kids are drilled with GUNS ARE BAD, GUNS ARE BAD, GUNS ARE BAD. God forbid my kids are ever involved in a situation like happened at Virginia Tech, but god damned if they aren't going to look at the kid next to them and say, "The next time this fuck goes to reload, we are going to slam him over the head with a desk". I don't want to train my kids to be urban warriors, but give them the mindset that when the situation warrants it, they need to have a warrior mentality. Fight back if it is your only option. The other option is a bad one. No one fights back any more. They sit back and hope someone will save them. Sorry, I am treading in dangerous territory where I would rather not step, but I think you get the gist of my rant.
