Quote from: Ecurb Noselrub on August 01, 2016, 10:35:33 PMIt gets aggravated in the south because of the heat.

I was born and raised in the south eastern portion of the United States of America. I have never gone hunting but I do like shooting guns for target practice. I don't "feel" like I'm on a power trip whenever I go shooting. It's just fun. Like roller coasters, some people like the thrill...some people don't. I love fireworks, my dog whimpers and hides every fourth of July. I have a niece who is terrified of sparklers.

For me, shooting at a target and seeing if I can hit it is just plain fun. Some life forms just don't like the boom.

It is fun.  I enjoy it myself.  Nothing wrong with it.

I must say, this is kind of refreshing to hear. :)

I like target shooting. Not done much small bore of full bore. But I have a .177 air rifle which requires care and skill to get the most out of it.

Yup, nothing at all wrong with guns IMHO - in the right place, the range, a hunting area or in battle.

NOT in the streets or other public places except in situations requiring qualified official use.

I have a fascination with the ingenuity that mankind applies in order to kill itself. A rather guilty fascination.
