laser tag promotes gun violence [let it die]

[b][u][just let this thread die now, nobody wants to listen so it's a waste of space][/u][/b] I'm going to be honest with you guys and say that our society promotes firearms and shooting each other with them way too much. We have dedicated facilities where we pay admission to hunt each other down and shoot each other. The thing I realized about laser tag is that little kids can start playing at younge ages. I was ten or eleven when I first played, I'm ashamed to say. [spoiler]ill admit I was and still am a bit of a Tomboy.[/spoiler] there was so many children running around shooting each other. I was in a daze. The time flew by in minutes, some kids resorted to shoving and other physical violence and others cried in defeat. Is this the message we are trying to teach kids? That hunting others down and shooting them is alright? It happens in paintball too but a bit more painful. So the next time there is a mass shooting and you find yourself wondering what sort of crazy shoots a school up for fun... Remember, you're the kind of person who would pay to hunt some one down and shoot them. [b][u][just let this thread die now, nobody wants to listen so it's a waste of space][/u][/b]

  • Nice bait, you almost got a legitimate response out of me. From your post alone it tells me you have never gone paintballing, airsofting, or maybe even lazertagging. All in all, you still have a very sheltered mindset. I can't wait for you to actually get out in the real world and realize its not sane rational kids that do these school shootings, which are very rare, but mentally ill people. Insane people are insane, they need medical help, it sure wasn't lazertag that inspired them to shoot up a school, it was those little voices in their head. Aw, look at that, you did get a semi-legitimate response out of me after all.
