But hey, I let my son play video games at times and I let him run around shooting real "semi automatic"guns too. He has a profound respect for firearms and is a damn good shot. Common sense is to teach kids all about firearms, remove the "mystique" at an early age. Get more firearms in the hands of people who want to own them. If they dont want one fine,but shut the #^&#^&#^&#^& up that they're scared of them, grow a set. Too many PC pansy ass people in this country and the up and coming generations are being raised the same way.

I'm not arguing with you as I agree with your general ideas at times. But there is no such thing as "common sense gun laws" thats a liberal catch phrase. Its bull s h i t.

"common sense gun laws that don't violate the 2nd amendment" - No such thing"

Of course there is such a thing. I don't think that laws that, for example, prevent 12 year olds from buying an Uzi, are unconstitutional.

I agree, there are crappy parents out there who doen't know what their kids are watching/playing/listening to. If everyone was a good parent, we wouldn't be having this conversation. But given that there are so many unsupervised kids watching TV and playing video games all day long, society would be better off if they were watching more "Leave it To Beaver" and less "Reservoir Dogs".
