A fun past time, minus the Nazi shit. Many weekends I recall spending in middle of nowhere West Virginia getting hammered on weird chemicals that had just been invented 4 days prior with fully automatic weapons and my homegirl road dawg. Even more that I don’t recall.
Well, my country is a shithole and I was born and raised in the heaviest gun culture on the planet. I don’t remember ever actually not knowing basic firearms safety, handling and operation. Lotsa fun (imo) but I do get weird looks and reactions from people who aren’t from the US and even many people who are from here.
Deep south born and raised, it’s changed in the last twenty years, but guns used to be a fun tool. Most people owned long guns with much fewer handguns. Guns were for hunting, varmint management, and plinking. City folk don’t really get it. Shotgun in the corner of the living room is normal.
I have an acquaintance from West Virginia that is similar. They’re also a non-binary, super queer, sexually sadistic top. We met in the BDSM community.
I’m from Ohio and I met a lot of folks through that same scene with similar attitudes. My ex was armed to the teeth and unsure whether it was more because she was afraid of the state or her ex husband. Hell I’ve met women who’ll tell you it is a gun in their pants, but they’re also happy to see you.
I got issues with guns. Everyone having access to semiautomatic weapons while we undergo a radicalization crisis, and a ton of people living in fear and concealed carrying doesn’t make for a good society. I grew up without guns in my household and was taught to see them in a negative light. This was partly because back in those days it was scandalous for middle class suburbanites to have guns regardless of political affiliation, and also because those were the days when gun tragedies involving kids were them shooting themselves on accident.
All that said, I still want a bolt action to blow an afternoon with
That’s what I was referring to about very few handguns. It was all wood stock rifles and shotguns. And, this was among conservative rural types. We’re in a very different place now.
Oh it’s great. When I worked for a Japanese company a lot of the businessmen liked going shooting while in America. Like, I don’t think the fun is worth the safety of people given all the mass shootings, but guns are really fun.
