Whatever happened with JCCC?

Teaching something that young to kill something is crazy to me. This isn't the stone age. We can go to the market now for groceries.

I think they figure it out on their own.  At least I did.  I mean I was handed a BB gun and some Coke cans and eventually ended up shooting a robin even though I was specifically told not to.  Anyway, I hope you don't think the only reason people hunt is for food.  It certainly isn't for me.

yeah, that's literally exactly why its a dumb idea.

Why, because a bird died?

Kids disobey parents. That's just what they do. So it's just foolish to give a kid a gun and say "never under any circumstance point this gun at anyone".

Well, aside from the needless loss of life, shooting a songbird carries a pretty hefty fine and possibly jail time as it is a felony under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act. As a hunter, I absolutely despise dumb fucks who shoot anything that moves...let's give your life the same courtesy, after all, you're only one of 7+ billion, right?  At least I kill for food and population control where necessary...yep, that means does only when deer hunting, brah.

I know this isn't the parenting thread, but this is a parents expectations problem. I see this crap all of the time. Parents tell you what there kid is going to do wrong and then the kid does it wrong. Kids do their best to live up to their parents' expectations.

While I agree kids to disobey parents, they are still capable of making judgement.  It's not like at midnight an 18 year old's logic and reason floods into a person's mind.  My friends and I spent a lot of time shooting BB/pellet guns unsupervised and we never shot each other.  I also have to consider that my parents didn't really give a crap if I shot a bird.  I mean, I'm sure my dad cared, but more about the person I might grow up to be than breaking some law that is never prosecuted or about this particular bird's insignificant life. 

Did you guys ever speed or disobey other traffic laws?  If so, were you parents stupid for having given you a car?

Yes, constantly. They were very stupid. Kids are terrible drivers. Daris can confirm, pretty sure the wrecks he responds to are mostly in the zoo lot.

School shooting season really got off to a slow start this year.

The guns are under attack again

[bubbles4ksu]

I was looking at some old pics the other day and came across my 7th grade football team. We had 15 guys(8-man fball) and now, 12 years later, five of them are dead. Four from car wrecks and one from some sort of organ failure. We would have had 16 on the team but one of the 8th graders got shot in the eye with a pellet fun a couple of years earlier.

Teens shouldn't drive. (I'm guessing they didn't all die in wrecks as teens but still).

Related to Jameis and the school shooting, some ESPNU student correspondent from Alabama basically destroyed her hopes at a journalism career by tweeting that she hoped the shooter was looking for Jameis

That's terrible. Her school should do her a huge favor and force her to change her major.

I still don't get the insane hatred for Jameis that everyone in the SEC has.

A moron and a liar, she should post here in the pit, she'd fit in well.

The "my twitter account was hacked" is such a boss move when you get caught being a moron.

I remember when Joel Goldberg got caught trying to score on twitter, said he got hacked.
