GUN CONTROL QUESTION AHEAD

Hey fellas. I was at the march yesterday, and a questioned popped into my idiot head. See, I like shooting for sport. I don’t carry, I live in the suburbs so I don’t need some home defense gun, but I also am starting to really hate guns in general. Really, I would be fine with just banning all the guns because we really don’t seem to be able to handle them as a country.

But until then, I still like shooting as a hobby. How can I reconcile those things? Is it possible to participate in the gun control fight while still enjoying a shooting hobby?

I feel you. I am in the same boat pretty much. I have a DD M4 and a Savage Scout(which is bolt action) that I love shooting, but I understand that something should be done about these mass shootings. I don't think owning an AR makes me a monster, but I hate a lot of right-wing views on gun ownership too. It's complicated I guess. I was an 11B for six years and I think its weird seeing civilians be gun crazy. I know a guy with multiple ARs, body armor, AKs, etc...

I just recently started looking into recurve bows, it looks fun. Might pick one up in April.
