Guns For Kids

I was amazed as I witnessed a bunch of kids flock near a Daisy gun display at a Walmart and behind that aisle was the adult guns with rows and rows of bullets. I am not a fan of the gun culture. What is astonishing is how previous generations had no qualms about guns and kids. The girls had the Barbie dolls and the boys had guns. The super-soaker is a “washed down” version of the same principal. Guns do kill and the idea is not instilled in kids at a very early age. At some point we have to stop selling this idea that guns are fun for kids and educate them about violence and how guns kill. Human life is worth something and not devalue it.
