Violence - for your consideration

Unread postby sunweb » Mon 21 Jan 2013, 11:04:10

It’s about violence. Guns are an excellent tool for violence. It is violence that needs to be on the national agenda.

Most male kids when I was young had a holster and a “play” gun and if we were lucky we had caps. We had cowboys shooting at cowboys and the good guys always won. We had cowboys shooting at Indians and the “good” guys always won. We had Saturday morning cartoons with brutality.

Now we have such gore in movies, on television and in video games of such realism that it is all a big show. Our culture and society than and now was and is infused with maiming and killing. The violence today has tools undreamed of when I was a kid.
We are a warrior nation.
