Access isn't the problem, the lack of being raised properly is the problem

Access isn't the problem, the lack of being raised properly is the problem | I GREW UP IN A PLACE WHERE PRETTY MUCH EVERY KID OVER THE AGE OF 6 LEARNED TO USE A RIFLE, HUNTING SEASON WAS FOR EVERYONE AND THE SHOOTING RANGE WAS SECOND ONLY TO BOWLING IN FAMILY POPULARITY. EVERY HOUSE HAD A GUN, USUALLY ON A RACK ON THE WALL. SAME WITH THE SCHOOL; I ALSO COLLECTED PEN KNIVES, JACK KNIVES AND SWISS ARMY. WE ALL DID, WE'D GO TO THE MARKET, BUY THEM (AS 11-14 YEAR OLD KIDS ON OUR OWN) THEN BRING THEM TO SCHOOL TO SHOW THEM OFF OR TRADE, SAME WITH BB GUNS AND AIR RIFLES, EVEN FOR 'SHOW AND TELL'. AND ON FREQUENT OCCASIONS IF MY PARENTS WANTED CIGARETTES, WE'D SIMPLY WALK INTO THE STORE AND BUY THEM. ANY AGE WAS FINE, NO QUESTIONS ABOUT IT. WE HAD UNLIMITED ACCESS TO GUNS, KNIVES, TOBACCO AND YET NO SHOOTINGS, NO STABBINGS AND ONLY THE 1 KID FROM THE BAD FAMILY SMOKED; SO...WHEN LIBERALS TELL ME THAT THESE THINGS CAUSE RELATED PROBLEMS IN THE MODERN DAY AND WE SHOULD BAN THEM BECAUSE OF IT... | image tagged in wut | made w/ Imgflip meme maker

I was born in 87 in England so we didn't have the rifles, hunting etc but the pen knives and the buying tobacco was the same more or less because you could pretty much buy anything

Ironically I didn't start needing i.d for anything until I hit my 20s
