Nazi soldiers high on drugs going through psychosis while unloading a machine gun into a tree at night
Didn't the french notoriously hollow out trees and turn them into fortified turrets?
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.
I live in Australia, i've never even seen a gun before mate lol
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
Yes, I am looking at you weirdly.
Me too, but I'll be honest if I grew up thinking guns were normal and you could just have one whenever you wanted, I think I'd be up to that shit too
Yes, it's probably good fun, but he just made an excellent example of how "gun safety" is often thrown around as an oxymoron by people who don't actually practice gun safety.
In my ears it sounds like "I'm a good driver when I'm drunk."
Look ive always wanted to fire a gun though. I went to paintball once and had the best time lol
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.
seems unwise to do anything dangerous when some random ass chem undergrad from shaanxi takes you on an adventure that you'll never remember
I was severely exaggerating, lol. Yes, there have been lots of weekends like that, but I do actually recall all of them. I know that's not really the point, but it's all I got. I did dumb shit with my homie, hundreds of times. We survived, and never even were injured, but I do understand that injury or death was a real possibility when combining the things that we did.
