Banning the Daisy Red Ryder

[Beet]

There was an engineer, a physicist, and and a mathematician on a train in Scotland. The train goes by a field with a black sheep in it.

Engineer: "Wow, Scotland has lots of black sheep"
Physicist: "Actually, we only know that there is at least one black sheep in Scotland"
Mathematician: "No, all we we know is that one side of something that looks vaguely sheep like is colored black in Scotland"

Philosopher: "All I know is that I am thinking of black sheep in my mind, and I am thinking of making conversation with an engineer, physicist, and mathematician"

Everett, the liberal camp is the one that wants to disarm people.  Populists, conservative, moderate, and libertarian factions have no desire to disarm people, so what group is left?

We grew up with BB guns, and I remember having huge wars in the woods with them, with cousins and their neighbors.  We would all just shoot directly at each other with no regard whatsoever for safety.  My brother and I generally wore jeans or trousers, and so were less vulnerable than my shorts-wearing cousins, not to mention I wore heavy, thick glasses.  I remember one of my cousins got a BB buried in his leg.. fair amount of blood trickling down.  Minor injuries were common, but luckily we all kept our eyes intact - pure luck.

Wow.  Did your parents realise you were doing this?

Presumably - it was they who bought me the BB gun.  I'm just saying if parents buy kids BB guns, they should expect them to shoot one another with them.
