      This has been a thing forever and it’s usually the people who didn’t go into the military that get a hard on for wanting to shoot someone

    these are what you call AMMOSEXUALs, they really do fantasize about it, and its exclusively conservatives, they are also paranoid asf.

    once followed some ytubers that turned magaty, and they were literally “euphoric” at the thought of shooting someone(a “intruder”) and one of them even has multiple guns stashed at thierhouse in case of this.

        And for some reason they always assume they won’t be a victim in the purge. Like when people think it would be cool to be a 40k space marine when there’s a 99% chance you end up as a servitor.

          Yeah unfortunately in the Apocalypse, most people, by definition, are dead, so the chances are that you are also dead and thus cannot live out your Mad Max fantasies.

    And then when it happens they don’t do it because they never practiced with a firearm in a high stress situation before.

      You are spot on!

      I practice. I run from one end of my camp to the other with my slung AR-15. Shaking and sweating I can put steel on target (10’x10’) at 40’. That’s gotta be good enough. Did I mention I have emphysema?

      BTW, I have a brown, immigrant wife, so this is a practical exercise vs. fantasy.

    Fucking hell, just go and play airsoft or paintball…

    Actually don’t… we don’t want your types turning our rather fun games of honesty into shouting matches over what is simply just a game.

      I can’t speak for all, but I have a safe that is bolted to the floor. If they get in there, they did more work than robbing the gun store.

        Burglars might score a single-shot shotgun or two from me, like the one over the door, if they notice it. Now let’s see them figure out how to use one!

        No one sane puts those idiot signs up. Over in /r/liberalgunowners the mantra was, "Keep that cutsie shit on your rifle case, not public.)

        Only if every soldier knows how to operate and maintain any kid of gun they can possibly come across, and only if they can magically build supply lines to move the right ammo to the right places without knowing where it all is ahead of time, and only if nobody booby traps anything. There’s a reason soldiers don’t procure on site unless they have to.

      You’re ignorant, shut up. It’s either on me or unloaded in the safe. The ammo is in another safe in another room.

    (Shoot to kill now, shoot to kill)
    Oh, I’m prayin’ somebody tries to break in here tonight 
    (Shoot to kill now, shoot to kill)
    I always keep a Magnum in my trunk

    Fuck all of you ignorant assholes. Shooting another person is the last thing I ever want to do with any of my guns. That’s not why I have them, that’s not what I like to do with them.

    After the Hunger Games movies came out, there was a huge number of young girls taking up the hobby of archery because they wanted to be like Katniss Everdeen. Are you going to accuse them of penetrating themselves with their arrows while they fantasize about killing people? Of course not, because that would make you a sick weirdo.

      I get tired of this piss ass notion. Those that want to kill go overseas to be PMCs like in Ukraine, and yeah I have some buddies that did that. I have permit and it’s mainly for comp shooting these days. It’s like the fuckcars fork. I’m sorry I like my late dads car and the sound of the engine is comforting.
