I'd like to see a poll. One where people who don't know what a BB gun is, and they're kind of scared, they go and shoot some pop cans.

The poll would be. Did Knocking A Pop Can Over Radically Change Your View Point?

It's so much fun.

SCIENCE!!!

My grandmother ran a Catholic retreat center for people went on a Walk of Emmaus retreat and they had a serious pigeon problem so I would get paid 50 cents a head to kill them with my bb gun.

My grandmother ran pigeon races.

I was paid 50c every time I shot an annoying Catholic. ($2 for clergy)

Shooting the gun camping was the first time I've shot a gun since Duck Hunter. Not scary, hit the cup twice, super fun but I look stupid in the pic.

You ladies, and Danny, are being awful logical when discussing teenagers, one the least logical group of people in the world. Teens are nothing but raging emotions without the experience to gauge anything. High school seems like eternity and everything seems like life or death.


But also Keith you were totally wrong to bring that annoying ass gun on the trip.

DAMMIT
I LOVED KUBO

it had talking animals and FIGHTING and Matthew Mchoncay in his least annoying role in 10 years.

How did it not make sense? His mother was a magical star witch who was hiding him from his grandfather but then he was found and he needed to get the magical armor to defeat his grandpa

there was always at least one kid in each friend group growing up who had a BB stuck under their skin somewhere. that's how we all learned. it's crazy how it'll break the skin and your skin just sucks it up and you can't get it out. not with a stick or nothin'.

i can't fathom a little BB pistol like that causing such a stir. shooting is a traditional part of camping. or having children over. or having just taken a nap.

Nope
It's a traditional part of gun culture

Being comfortable around guns happens because you grow up around guns.

I didn't so I find it deeply disturbing, I don't see how shooting is a cute thing to do when hanging out in the woods.
But don't get me wrong, I do understand hunting, deer and boar is fucking delicious but I don't need you shooting cans next to me casually day drinking.
