Gun manufacturers quietly target young boys using social media

[BasicHumanUnit]

The plan is to reduce the number of Americans who own firearms while increasing the number of Americans terrified of them and their owners.

They've been pushing this plan for over 50 years now. They are about 1/3 the way to their goal.

When the present generation dies off it's gonna get a LOT easier to ween America off it's 2nd Amendment.

i dont care what any of you say: this is pure evil. PURE. EVIL.

A woman being able to defend herself and her children is "pure evil" ?

You're messed up. BADLY. MESSED. UP.

Companies like Smith & Wesson have "influencers" and "sponsored shooters" to connect more with younger audiences

This is such a load of crap

I read the story waiting to see examples to
back up the headline

But there were none

Back when i was in High School, we had military recruiters show up and quietly try to get us to enlist. Once in we were allowed to touch fully automatic weapons..

So what?

Malarkey.

What a trash article and headline. Do you even know what is an influencer? No, and your "source" doesn't mention one except in the fake headline.

IF you really want to save the lives of our kids, reach out and demand that our Southern border be closed. In the past year, 100,000 people have died from drug overdoses with Fentanyl leading the pack.

Along with the thousands crossing our Southern border are members of the most violent gangs in existence.

Do you believe those gang members are "INFLUENCED" by Facebook to buy guns?

Yeah, with all the defund the police movements going on folks are getting rid of all their guns. Now we're getting to know that we'll be safe calling the police since an unarmed social worker will come out first.

I feel safer already! Don't you?

When I was in high school, we had a recognized sport in shooting. I would pick up my rifle from the armory, put it in the trunk of the car and we would drive to our next match.

You are definitely evil.

Do you want to see PURE EVIL????

I never thought I would see someone that was dumber than a rock, but there it is!

She was somewhat older than that when I took that picture. I was thinking, as I posted it, that perhaps I need to take a new picture of her with her shotgun, as that is really not a very good picture.

With a beauty like that, aren't you scared to leave her at home?

It's a tool. You don't freak out about Matchbox targeting youth but automobiles kill on average about 37,000 Americans per year. I suppose you would prefer the youth remain ignorant. OH...do you just wan them banned?

That little guy at the bottom is holding a 410

I received my first gun, an H&R 410 at 10, and was taught, from the start, exactly how to fire, clean, and handle it before a round ever exited the barrel.

We have turned into a nation of people frightened of our own shadow, completely dependent upon the blessing of the state.

SMH.

When I was in high school, I was in JROTC. We were taught, among many other things, gin safety and marksmanship.

Since I turned 12, I always practiced gin safety (don't spill it) and never misses my mouth.

Why were they quiet?

For no rational reason whatsoever.

Thank you for exposing your bigotry.

Young boys have always been enamored by guns. They have played with toy versions of them for as long as guns have been around. There are toy guns on display in Colonial Williamsburg that the boys played with before the Revolutionary War.

"Quietly". LOL

From Boy's Life magazine in 1965 (published by the Boy Scouts). These ads, and many others like them, were in the magazine every month for decades.

wow, you are an idiot

73 million kids in the country….. how many used guns illegally in mass public shootings versus the thousands who use guns for sport and hunting?

You morons cant stand kids learning to use guns responsibly and safely….
