    THAT is an American tradition.

    For a country as obsessed with firearms as the USA the level of knowledge on how to use them safely is shockingly low.

      That’s what happens when gun ownership is a right. It doesn’t matter how fucking stupid, irresponsible, or psychopathic you are, you still get access to firearms and there’s no pressure to learn how to handle them safely.
