Hey Desert Fox. I watched the video.

I've been thinking about this for awhile and I've come up with a couple of ideas. I think people have been dumbed down SO much, they don't even believe in themselves, let alone others. People don't believe that others are still honorable, sensible, and are not running around like characters in a video game. Just because one owns a firearm, doesn't mean one is running around just looking for someone to shoot. We live out in the sticks, with coyotes that like to come right up to the door, poisonous snakes, big cats (not the kitteh type!LOL), feral pigs, strange people that may or may not be harmless, and a very large county with few deputies. Our nearest neighbor is about a mile away. The only people I can count on live right here. The law is just too far away, usually. I know almost all of them, they are good guys and I trust them. They just can't get here soon enough to help.

I grew up with guns in the house, but I didn't learn to shoot until I was 19. I'll never go to Camp Perry for the rifle matches, but I will hit whatever I'm aiming for. The first thing I learned as a child was never point the toy guns at anyone and later, never draw your weapon unless you intend to use it.

Too many people have learned to like the taste of kool-aid and have forgotten their roots.
