the fact that a boy shot an intruder backs up my claim that it's ok to teach children firearms - entirely up to parents.

it's a fact that normal American family do teach their children in firearm safety, laws, danger and the consequences of using firearm on a person. you seem to think nobody is taught with that.
I read that the kid who was the shooter at Sandy Hook was taught gun safety by his mother who was an avid gun owner and survivalist. So much for teaching children gun safety.

sounds like you're one of those city slickers traveling around superficially because you found some slick deal from groupon and brag to people with your selfie shots next to some landmarks and bisons.


that is strange... very strange.... how is it that you and I have come up with completely different observations? I live in NJ - right next to NYC where people are irrationally afraid of guns and I have many friends in several states in this region who do hunt for food and store them. buying meat at grocery and paying for it is a foreign concept to them. they gave me some deer meat and it's quite good. better than store-bought which is full of chewy fat.



It all has to do with who you hang around with, I hang around with normal people and you are hanging around other gun nuts and hunters.




where I vacation at.... a "supermarket" is pretty far and a local grocery doesn't sell meat. so I don't know exactly where you "vacationed" at but my money's on touristy places with A/C, internet, and 4-stars hotels.

And they let you go out and hunt for your food and then prepare it for you?

but.. this was the kid with serious mental problem. how do you stop a crazy sick person who planned very thoroughly to kill people?

and that didn't answer my question. where did you get the info that mother forgot to lock up the gun?

I've hunted squirrels and rabbits... and let the grandma cook it for me.

beside... don't they have meats stored in the fridge? would you eat it? would you hunt?

No, he relies on real men and women to do it for him.

really sad and embarrassing that they had to go out of the way to buy food for him... a city slicker...
 
Jiro said:
yes you did. you calculated and assumed that only 7% hunted.
.


I'm sorry, but there is no other way to say that more than 7% of americans are hunting. If you have 314 million people in the country and only 12.7 million hunters than what you have is 7%.

do you know for certain that only 7% hunted? how many states do 7% live in?

It was in the papers and the articles I read, She knew her kid was nuts and still left the guns where he had access to them.

I thought it pretty much accurately answered his question, and he didn't have to look anything up, just had to find a mirror.

I'm only going by the statistics if you can't add subtract and divide I can't help it. 314 million americans, 12.7 million hunters = 7% Sorry Jed, I can't change the numbers that were provided.

You proved my point. You don't have a logical definition for "gun nut." You just like to make cheap shots.
 
lol oh dear oh dear... as Reba said... if you are using a quote button - you don't need to add [/quote] but if you are manually copying-pasting a quote or modifying a post... it starts with [ quote] and ends with [/quote]

again... the numbers don't lie but your calculation and assumptions are incorrect.

you don't know for sure if it's only 7%. I believe there are a lot more. and you can't even answer my question on how many states where do these "7%" lives in. you keep saying that I said "many people" when in fact I've never said that.
