Two (original) thoughts:

1. Teach a man to fish and he’ll never starve. – and –

2. Put that BB gun down before you put your brother’s eye out.

And the world still turns.

To the leftist we are all miraculously hatched from the ether as identical amorphous blobs sort of like skinless potatoes then, as we get older, we decide on what attachments, colors, interests and even chromosomes and genes we want the government to award us.

You can substitute a gun for a sword made of wood. For a small young boy. This was very normal 300 years ago.

In pre colonial America. The Indians had boys learning to make the bow and arrow. And going on hunts with the abult warriors of the tribe.

Thomas Jefferson wrote that a gun should be substituted for a ball. In a boys young life. So he can learn about safety. And not have accidents.

Teaching boys. And girls how to shoot and be safe with firearms, should be made widely normal in America.

They way it use to be.

Children learning about guns from an experienced father. A grandfather. An uncle. Or a brother or nephew. This was very normal before the “welfare industrial complex.” Replaced the father in the home. With a government check.

Most people have no idea where the term Military Industrial Complex originated from. They think it was President Eisenhower.

But 140 years ago. The USA was getting its military rifles from Germany. Because the 1903 Springfield was a licensed firearm. America paid a fee to German gun makers. For the right to use the Mauser rifle action. In the Springfield design.

So when America entered the “Great War.” The pacifist Left correctly said.

“Both sides are using the same guns. And making gun makers very rich.”

The firearms industry was the foundation of the military industrial complex. Not Raytheon not Boeing. Not Bell Helicopter.

Rebels are first using small arms. Not tanks. Not battleships.

It’s the “gun”. That will cause a government to fall. Not the expensive B52.

Tyranny really hates a gun in the hands of the ordinary citizen.

And these man hating (probably le zb,;i@n) professors also hate guns in the hands of any age male.

You can find similar statements being made well over one hundred years ago. I know I’ve researched it.

These people long age were attacking the Boy Scouts. Because the Boy Scouts were teaching a little boys about guns. The Left has a very long history of attacking the idea of boys and guns being together.

This is just another attack on the image of the male. And smearing it.
