These are basically adult versions of tag.
Here's a question, why can't you do your shooting with non-lethal/bullet-using weapons?

Why cant I do my shooting with non lethal/bullet using weapons ?? What would be the bloody point ?? "Non lethal" rounds are infact very capable of killing and maiming just as much as live rounds, so your point is moot.
I'm not confused, I dont know why you think that. I know what a bullet does when it enters the body, it twists and turns, tumbles and reduces flesh into mush, destroying vital organs severing arteries, either exiting the body or staying inside causing massive trauma. I know what guns do and I know clearly the difference between gaming and living.
You enjoy gaming ? You enjoy shooting pixels ? You enjoy the fact that you are shooting at representations of humans without the blood and gore and know that you are not actually killing anyone ?? Well guess what, WE ARE DOING EXACTLY THE SAME FUCKING THING, ONLY I SHOOT REAL GUNS AT PAPER TARGETS AND YOU SHOOT PIXELS THAT LOOK LIKE HUMANS ON A COMPUTER. We are not hurting anyone and WOULD never hurt anyone. Do you comprehend ? Criminals with illegal guns should be the target of your dislike for guns, not people like me who follow and obey the law to the letter.
You think mass killings wouldnt occur if guns were banned ?? How stupid are you to believe in something like that ?? Guns are readily available all over the place, banning them wont stop anything, dont you understand ?? Black market arms is BIG business, those arms dealers make shitloads and they sell to whomever has the cash. No law, no worries, it's all about money, you got the money, you got a gun, not a problem at all.
Licenses should be made harder to get, psychological tests should be given, background checks, and whatever else is needed to make sure the licensee isnt going to go postal. If new technology that is being created is made public, guns will only be able to be fired with a special ring on the handlers finger. The gun and the ring work in conjunction, without the ring, the gun is useless. Firearms with this particular application built in would make them much more safer.
I never forced my opinion on you or any of you, I stated my feelings, and you stated yours. You think guns are dangerous by themselves, I dont. I like guns, you dont. Simple as that. If you dont like guns, I'm not going to change to suit your needs and neither is anyone else. The majority of people in my country want guns banned ?? Since when ?? The chance of their kids being blown away accidently would be reduced if the owner was smart enough to lock away his weapons, keep ammunition seperate from the guns and locked away in another compartment.
I'm sorry you feel as though you are being given a raw deal here, being made to live with gun owners and all. Seriously, theres nothing you can do about it, so stop your whining. We have put up with shit from people like you for years now, and we arent going to back down, simple as that. Get used to it.
End of discussion.
