re: #468 LudwigVanQuixote

Actually, it is not clear that owning firearms or not makes you a woosie liberal. Also, I think that urban vs. rural makes a big difference. I grew up in rural Pa. I mean schools got an extra day off for deer season. Everyone knew how to shoot.

You really will not see that in the typical suburban environment, and the inner city kids learn about weapons for different reasons entirely.

As to not liking guns. My great uncle was a Merril’s Marauder. He was hardly a pansie woosie anything. He considered that one of the things he was fightin for was to prevent his kids from ever needing to have a gun. He said he had used them enough.

The pointed end of my comment was directed to those who denigrate gun owners and race enthusiasts - also known as hicks among the enlightened fantasist camp. Hell, I don’t folow NASCAR either, but that is not my point.
