re: #231 Unshaken Defiance

Weapons as sexy are one of those “cause and consequences” aspects of our violence culture. Guns and violence as sexy instead of repulsive. Celebrating violent people, from Jack The Ripper on up to modern day gang culture.

I have no problem saying this but I really dislike guns. I dislike gun culture and I especially dislike attacking one’s masculinity if he has the balls to say “You know what, guns aren’t all that awesome.” I’m not saying btw you’re a bad person if you like guns, I’m saying I shouldn’t be shamed or called a pussy for not liking them.
