Since the thread drifted off-topic, I'd like to make a point before returning to topic. Moderators: Feel free to delete this post if necessary; I'll delete it myself in a couple of days.

Imho, and in the opinion of millions of others, there is nothing wrong with a father and son learning about firearms, as an activity akin to archery, competitive target shooting from pellet airguns to high powered long distance rifles...even the very heavy weapons seen in the Shooting-Range video (off-topic as it was). Hunting of wild game is not only acceptable, it is required in many cases in the modern era when many types of animals grow in umbers to such an extent that they encounter starvation as a result of excessive numbers for the acreage and food sources available. But I digress....

This Shooting-Range activity by a supervised child is far different from the “brainwashing” of children (or otherwise ‘forcing’ children) into becoming killing machines. Those who worry about children and weapons should reserve their offended sensibilities for cases of true ‘abuse’ of children when it comes to firearms (weapons). They should consider focusing their outrage, opinions, and ‘reform’ efforts on the real organized evil in the world, not upon Americans' Constitutional ‘right to bear arms’.
To wit…
Hezbollah junior wannabees:


Hamas:


Palestinian in Lebanon…real handgun:


Pakistani Shi’ite…Admittedly, Toy guns in this case, but which is worse? This or target shooting with Dad.



Somalia:


Sierra Leone:


Sudan:


Golden Triangle Drug army “soldiers”:


Burma:



Uganda child solders

I don't think anyone would mind if every post from #537 to here were deleted (including this one), do you? It's only two pages worth of OT. I wonder what the mods think?
