I hunt (ethically), trap, hold multiple carry licenses/permits, shoot on a regular basis (not much lately, winter and I hate indoor ranges) and played FPS games since I was a teenager (original Doom, Quake, Unreal, etc). I don't feel like a game like Battlefield or CoD desensitizes me from the taking of a life. It's a game. It isn't real life. Absolute LAST thing I want to do is use a firearm in self-defense. Even if I'm completely in the right, I don't wanna have to kill someone.
My parents are REALLY late silent generation (late 30s/early 40s). Aunts and uncles are Boomers. Formula was basically go to college, graduate, get job by walking in and filling out paper application, then rake in an assload of money. They TRULY believe it is still that easy to find a good job, rather than being assigned a number on an ATS and maybe, sometime getting some robo-email rejecting me, but likely not. They have sucked this country dry. I assign a shitload of blame to them but I also blame my grandparents generation for plopping that socialist FDR in office four times.
I didn't say I wouldn't massacre a bunch of motherfuckers who are trying to kill me. I won't hesitate if they're endangering me or my child.
Not sure which one I hate more. FDR for…well, fucking over every man, woman, and child in America or Wilson for bending over for the Rothschilds.
