Yeah, I’m still in emotional overload. Lots of shit on Facebook is getting
“hidden”. And the Screaming Gun Nuts ™
are getting blocked, regardless of the probability of me ever interacting with
them again. And of course, everyone and
their damn dog is tagging me on their various Gun “Debates” of all
flavors. Yeah, count me the fuck out of
that. Granted, it’s nice that these
individuals (the ones that tag me on these posts) sincerely want my opinion,
because it’s an unusual one – I’m pro-gun, but WITH restrictions. I’m a born and raised and mostly proud
Texan. I grew up in a very small town,
in a very country family and thus, I grew up around guns. But I grew up with all the gun SAFETY drilled
into my head since before I could even form words. I love shooting guns. I love shooting high caliber guns
even…semi-automatic even. But I don’t
believe a civilian has any business owning a .50 cal. I am pro-gun…within reason. But the Screaming Gun Nuts ™ make it sound like any sort of gun restriction is the removal
of one of their beloved testicles and you would assume from the screaming and
flailing and behaving like a 5-year-old, that it's being removed with a rusty
knife.
Honestly, I think this is the
perfect time to start distancing myself from Facebook. I squander wayyyyyyyy too many hours
there. Hours, that honestly, should be
focused on all the classwork I need to get done. And how many times have I said this
before? Hell, I swear I have an
addiction to social media. ::shakes her
head:: Beyond that…I have an addiction
to the Internet.
