re: #161 klys (maker of Silmarils)

I feel like part of what we are watching is the end result of a culture that encourages an attitude of entitlement towards firearm ownership with no restrictions whatsoever.* If the law disagrees with that, well, that law is for other people. Real criminals. People with real mental illnesses.

I don’t know how to fix this. I’m not certain, right now, that there is a way to fix it.

* Yes, thank you, I am aware of the second amendment. If you think that’s what I’m talking about, I’m not sure this conversation would be productive and I’m not going to indulge in it.

Honestly, it’s an entitlement culture about everything, not just firearms. Americans are conditioned to believe that they deserve whatever they want. There are a lot of self-centered people out there who are “chasing the American dream”.
