Hey Marcus! You, Doc Cam and K Graham all think this kind of scenario never happens. The dad is pistol whipped, the girls hiding in the closet are found by the intruders. The twenty year old son shoots and kills one of the three intruders. In your insane Progressive world, the son would've had to of faced three intruders unarmed. You guys are xxxcin sick!! You live in an alternate universe.

Do you think it's dangerous my kids have access to weapons? The guns are loaded and a round is in the chamber.
This is irresponsible behavior and condoned by NO ONE. Please don't allow children access to loaded guns.
Accept by the parents in the videos that let their children have access to loaded weapons so they could shoot robbers. You just can't handle the fact not everyone agrees with your Progressive Narrative, can you?

When we were Young, 12 to 15, my mom would drop us off in a rural city. We would walk about a mile and a half down the train tracks carry a 22 caliber rifle a bottle of oil and around 200 rounds of ammunition, a gallon of water along with cans of vienna sausage and tuna fish. We would sit on the train trestle waiting for muskrats to swim in the Creek and shoot them so we could sale the pelts. She would pick us up when it got dark 12 hours later. 2 to 3 boys, each with a 22 rifle and hundreds of rounds, shooting all day on a train trestle. Every 80 or so rounds we would clean the rifles and oil them, no adults!

Never let perfection stand in the way of a good solution. I’d bother to explain why society’s inability to achieve perfection is simply an opportunity to do nothing for the malevolently inclined, but I just exceeded my post’s word limit for the 2d brains who troll the forum for attention.

I'm beginning to wonder of discussions about guns are actually about guns at all.
It’s just grievance theater the moment the topic moves off datapoints.

I see you still have your pink vagina hat on. What about the kids shooting in 3gun competitions? Should their parents be locked up? Would you, the male Karen, call the police on them?

😂🤣😂🤣 Classic!! I see you won't answer the question. You keep saying ""please don't allow children access to loaded firearms"" so I'm showing you children with loaded firearms, Karen!! But you won't answer!😂 Why not?

Should parents that allow children to shoot competitively with firearms have the police called on them? That's what you said, correct? You would call the police if a neighbor allowed children access to loaded firearms?

What if a dad takes a12 year old hunting and sits the kid in a tree stand by himself, 30ft up in the air with a 12 gauge shotgun, then walks 200 yards down and climbs another tree stand? Is that acceptable Marcus or is that an irresponsible parent?

Your imaginary scenarios are entirely irrelevant. I am commenting on what YOU said about the universe you tell us YOU actually live in. Talk about that:

😂😂Still won't answer the question because you know I'm correct and if you answer the way you actually feel, everyone will know you're a KAREN! The tree stand story is my life. We couldn't afford expensive metal tree stands so we would steal wood from construction sights at night and build tree stands as high as we could. Don't be upset because I had an eventful childhood. Hunting with guns is huge in the Americas. You should try it, Marcus. But I would suggest trading your pink vagina hat for a blaze orange hat 🤣😂🤣😂.

That's because they couldn't afford double French doors, a home security system, and two guard dogs in a gated community. What else was he supposed to do?

Anyone who has guns for self-protection like A-Mike does knows that if the gun isn't readily accessible if not on your person, the chances of protecting yourself or family during a home invasion is very low. Even with accessibility, your chances still aren't great because the invader has a supreme advantage -- the element of surprise. That one time it happens in 30 years could be in broad daylight or three AM. If you're just a little two slow, that's the deadliest scenario because if the invader sees you going for your gun, he's got no choice.

It's amazing Marcus is still alive. Gun locked up in a cabinet with trigger lock and everything.

re: kevin / PG

I personally know two people very well who killed themselves with guns. One guy was totally unhinged and bragged about his shutgun regularly, and the gun was for self-defense and chest puffing only. I don't think he'd ever shot a clay pigeon.

The other guy I'm pretty sure didn't own any guns an certainly wasn't into them. He got a rifle while staying with family (he was well into adulthood) and the family definitely weren't into guns, just happened to have a couple.

People don't kill people. Guns do.
