#delete later#i fucking hate it when fucking assholes go out and shoot places up#it makes me anxious about it happening near me#and it makes me anxious about a sport that i love being taken away from me#i have been a competitive small bore prone; 3p; and 4p shooter for going on 5 years now#my father has been in the sport for 20+ years#i was raised with guns and gun safety- i didnt actually shoot a live round (that wasnt a bb gun) until highschool#when people talk about stricter safety laws they include that hobbies that require guns#that arent hand guns that said firearms should be kept on the premis of the hobby#for me thats a no can do thing- i trust next to nobody to even TOUCH Nova#much less trust a club safe where other people are also storing their guns where my gun could be tampered with or broken#for my gun sich a rule is over kill anyway#yes it shoots real this can kill you ammo— but its a 10lbs single shot bolt action and its a bitch to even ATEMPT to shoot without gear on#like theres no way i could walk into a place and fire a bunch of rounds without meing seen#i agree we need to do something about this#but as a competitive shooter who has delt with major depresion; is autisic; and has ADHD (amonst other things)#i believe the first step is the rather unpopular opinion of teaching gun safty and such in school#(also hot take YOU DONT ACTUALLY NEED A GUN TO TEACH BASIC GUN SAFTY)#i am probably worringvoner nothing... but this shit makes me mad; anxious; and a billion other things#and its all because some fucker had to go do this fucking shit#sorry#i just feel the whole world is against me whenever this shit happens#because i know what growing up around guns; not being allowd to even shoot a bb gun till i was like 10#and then not shooting live rounds (alone without an adult literally hovering over me and off sand bags only and then rarely) till i was 15#i was only ever alowed to point a nerf gun at anyone and when granddad let me use the bb guns#we only ever shot at old and blank cds at targets#the closest ive EVER gotten to ‘’shooting’’ someone would be paint ball and lazer tag#both of which the ‘guns’ only vaugly resemble guns#i mean i shot fecking archery with girl scouts before i EVER touched a gun#but lets fix the problem by sheltering people and making them more afraid of fancy hole punchers
