Well, it pretty much just modern/'superior'/'advanced' weapons that are the issue.
Imo, some of those are a necessary evil. If you want to protect your family and people from invaders, you need to be able to do it well, and that's just with muskets and matchlocks. Even most modern weapons were created in the world wars, and I feel like that's a good reason to have some good weapons. Excluding the atomic bomb. That should never exist
But if the weapons hadn't been invented, how would people invade in the first place?
With less advanced weapons, or with their bare hands if necessary. And don't say they wouldn't. There are historical accounts of knights dropping their weapons (most likely due to damage) to duke it out fist to fist
Yes, but hand to hand combat would lead to far less losses on both sides. The stronger would win. Advanced weapons just increased the amount of people killed before one side surrendered.
God made man. Guns made man equal.
Weapons were inevitable. Violence will always be employed as long as there is any kind of struggle left in this world.
The living must eat. And what they eat must die.
Okay why is this such a raw line? I will be quoting this at some point in my life.
I assume you mean the first line.
“God created men, Col. Colt made them equal" is the actual line, and was a slogan for some gun company way back when.
I meant the whole thing, despite it being three lines and me just saying line.

Shot some rifles which was neat. (And the camp also had shirts with targets on them you could use as targets and then wear back home as your "I got to shoot a gun!" shirt. Though I didn't buy any of those.)
Did a little with shotguns. Seeing the clay pigeon explode was neat. Plus reloading a shell was a unique experience. And then shooting the bullets you made.
Some Black Powder rifles at Philmont. Again, neat. Lots of smoke. And the loading process was fun to learn.
I've also got a friend who likes guns. Haven't done any shooting with him. But he enjoys showing off when he gets a new one.

Not much either. Not much going on today. Biggest thing on my mind right now is avoiding a nap since I know I want to be able to sleep earlier since tomorrow will be a busy day. (Overall should be pleasant since it's an event type I like working. But long and busy.)

True. Forgot about that.

It was accurate, even if I'd prefer it wasn't. Also dramatic and compelling. Do you do poetry?

I just thought you were normally ambivalent toward it. You don't really say much about it most of the time.

Quiet appreciation is a thing. Just not for me. Most other people do it.

I don’t say anything about a lot of things. If I pointed out everything someone posted that I enjoyed, you’d never hear the end of it

Hello, Isaac.
See if you can try it some time.
I got my opportunities back in Boy Scouts.
Shot some rifles which was neat. (And the camp also had shirts with targets on them you could use as targets and then wear back home as your "I got to shoot a gun!" shirt. Though I didn't buy any of those.)
Did a little with shotguns. Seeing the clay pigeon explode was neat. Plus reloading a shell was a unique experience. And then shooting the bullets you made.
