Lord, what idiots. “Even if this isn’t a problem, we should force people not to make it a problem.“
BARF!
March to December is an odd time frame
It’s amazing to me how people can get their minds twisted into such incredible tight knots that they lose complete control of how to reason.
Stupid people raising even more stupid kids who don’t know the difference between toys and the real thing because they are too scared to come within a 100 yards of a.... shhhh, gun.
parenting is a problem for a larger portion of the population. This gives rise to the nanny state.
IF ONLY ONE....
IF ONLY ONE of the ghetto drug dealers was terminally punished in public........
IF ONLY ONE of the CORRUPT politicians was hung in public......
IF ONLY ONE of the illegals was publicly shipped back south of OUR border publicly.......
IF ONLY ONE of the freaks trying to wear to wear a dress to hide their penis was taken out behind the woodshed.......
IF ONLY HUNTER BIDEN & the ENTIRE CORRUPT BIDEN CLAN was rounded up by Elliott Ness.....
IF ONLY...........
Time to put an end to making guns that kids can easily mistake for toys
It also practically took my arm off when I fired it. I carried that memory to adulthood when, at age 43, I fired a handgun for the second time in my life. I was 6’1” and in very good shape (hit the gym daily and bicycle commuted to my job). My friend handed me his Glock 17. I cringed and pulled the trigger...and it was no big deal. With two magazines, every shot but one was within a 5” oval at the standard range distance.
It’s why I now carry a Glock 19.
To a kid, everything is a toy! Pots and pans ... You name it,it is a toy. If you want to ban anything, ban the video games where a gun is represented as a plaything.
“Time to put an end to making guns that kids can easily mistake for toys”
Time for you to GTFO of this country.
How they look is irrelevant.
That is why Orang tips were put on toy guns.
This is precisely how my dad introduced me to gun safety back in 1951 (when I was four). The gun was a .22, so recoil wasn't an issue, but the difference between the real thing and my toy guns was imprinted on all senses..visual, aural and tactile. "I" never had any problem distinguishing real from toy after that one exposure.
“We’ve taken similar steps with other products. Cigarette companies and liquor manufacturers can’t market their products using cartoon characters, for example, and cigarettes can’t be sold in flavors that appeal to children, like strawberry or chocolate. Why? Because we’ve decided as a society that it’s important to shield kids from the health risks of smoking and drinking.”
I forget which Amendment to the Bill of Rights describes an individual right to a cigarette or strong drink? Anybody?
