Untill then there's lots of schools.

What they don't realize is that Keanu Reeves does a ton of training, and even occasionally does competitions

Murders of Haile Kifer and Nicholas Brady - Wikipedia

(en.m.wikipedia.org)

TLDR: man lures teens into his home by leaving his house wide open so he could shoot and kill them.

The absolute sicko made audio recordings where he floated about killing them.

Also, it's a movie, not real life. John wick would have died hundreds of times in those movies if even some of those events were real.

The black man that volunteered for that must have a death wish. He had to have gone into that thinking there was a very good chance the police would shoot him on sight.

See if you can find yourself a group with operation blazing sword. Whatever you do LGS usually have just FUDDs who want to talk how turnip daddy is going to make everything like it was back in the 50s again...most of the sane ass people who are into owning and shooting are online now (there are still a shit ton of magats but just avoid those places). It also helps if you can find a group that has a private range, it'll make it a lot easier to setup times to go enjoy shooting.

I think the kids filming the experiment were as shocked by the results as anyone watching the video. Very possibly a camera being at the scene of the ~~criminal misuse of police power~~ arrest saved the black guy's life.

That's the sort of person who shouldn't own a firearm. That should actually be added as a question for the background check form.

Man, I would be pretty upset if I dedicated a bunch of my time to compete, and then a guy who got paid millions of dollars to train with some of the best experts in the field showed up as a competitor. That would be like entering an amateur competition and there's a fucking Navy Seal in line next to you.

They don't usually outright say it, but some make it clear in other ways.

Like showing up at the range in full combat gear. Dude, simma downa!

A couple years ago I joined a private shooting club. They have a range with targets from 10-300 yards. It was so cool to shoot there, and all the other members were total marksmanship nerds. Seeing all the great equipment, and ridiculous scopes was always fun, and the other members were nice to talk to. There were no soldier LARPers there. We operated as our own range masters, and everyone took safety very seriously. It was a refreshing change from the public range. Unfortunately I moved a couple hours away from that range, so it didn't make sense to continue paying the membership anymore. Now I just go to the mountains to shoot, because some of the people at public ranges make me quite uncomfortable.

Yes. Thankfully not everyone who owns a gun is like these weirdos though.

When the average right winger treats guns like toys it's a good sign for every leftist to also own guns.

I think nearly everyone in the firearms community realizes how much time and effort Keanu puts into training.

I'm not in any way trying to defend what he did, but am I missing something? It's written that the teens broke in with the intention to rob the house? Still a planned murder of course, but I think it's important to mention it, they weren't just good Samaritans checking in on a neighbour whose door was left open

I would love to talk about the amazing mechanics and different approaches guns have to firing an exploding charge to move a mass of metal at supersonic speeds

You need to hang out with gunsmiths. Those are the folks having those kinds of conversations.

As someone seriously considering their first firearm purchase, my main thought is "I hope this is a gigantic waste of time and money".

This case is horrible, but you have misrepresented it in your comments. The teens broke a window and entered his house with the intention to rob it—it was not left wide open. The recording devices were turned on because he knew they were robbing the house. His first shots to stop the intruders were legal.

Where the crime occurred is that the original shots did not kill them, and then he executed them after they were downed. He also did not report the bodies for a day.

Don’t get me wrong, dude is a psychopathic asshole, but misrepresenting the series of events doesn’t help anybody.

Lol I have several guns. Some I don't know if I even have ammo for them at all.

I can't imagine the mindset these types of owners have. They are afraid and they want to murder someone. I can't imagine

Hell, the few rifles I have are stored with the firing bolts removed and locked up separately.
