I have caught this one pit bull over 5 times near my brothers house. You should see it. Almost every time I’ve pulled up and the neighbors are all scared to death. This particular dog is a mix of something because he’s massive. The best part? He’s super friendly. I mean stupid friendly where anyone could just steal him. Ive put his muddy *ss in my truck and drove him home in the rain twice. I’ve told the lady that owns him he’s gonna get killed by some cop who’s scared to death and can’t read the demeanor of a dog. Finally the lady fixed the fence.

Yeah like black rifles

Perception is important here too. Most are still indifferent to certain guns. With each shooting though thousands are convinced they are nothing but negative. They don’t see the father/son shooting at the range on Saturday mornings. They don’t care now either.

The more militaristic guns look the more dangerous they look to the general public. That’s an issue the companies know. It’s also what sells the guns. It’s a trade off.

Hahaha you crack me up. just because you happen to be below average in certain aspects doesnt mean i'm closer to average. dont be so hard on yourself centra

By average, I mean how others make assumptions about your background based on what you do or sound like. I do "academic" and have an ascent that is foreign (southern Indiana / Kentucky drawl). Assumption is I come from city and have not experienced based knowledge in area I profess. Reality has a background heavily seated in agriculture in rural area, not just some bedroom community for a city. Had to do actual farm work from the get go yet have to deal with an audience that feels need to describe to me what pig shit smells like or what it is like to hunt. I really love it when whipper snappers assume you do not know how to operate a tractor or hive a swarm because they have been doing it for a whopping 10 years. I could go on and on. damn

That is not the kind of shooting at issue.

No sh*t. That’s what I just said. I personally think target shooting is utterly boring beyond becoming proficient with the guns you own. For me it’s hunting and mainly shotguns. Honestly with all the modern tech involved in guns nowadays it’s no big feat to hit targets out to 300 yds and beyond. To each their own.

I'm Not going to read all of it cause I'm sick in bed resting so I can move more junk.

It's this simple you can have a bad apple in any bushel but raising and socializing is where most fail. We obviously all know a tank can do more damage than a 22 but comparing apples to oranges the same when your neighbors sweet family lab goes nuts vs aintjamamas toy poodle... it doesn't matter as both are aggressive issues that most overlook because their oh so sweet looking dogs and ain't no bad in them crap When it could not be farther from the truth.
I'll keep my dogs and the breed they are in my eyes an heart can not be trumped by any other as I know how they truly are, and they ain't no changing that or my mind about them.

I deal with the same issues as you, I grew up on farms I just look city so people assume i don't know my way around a farm. I was even in FFA lol I live in a town of less then 200/ half of them are christian cultists prepping for the apocalypse, other half mennonites. I have much more in common with those types then I do my peers.
