So last night I was sitting here in bed with him as he watched a video about an English guy who lives here in America, saying that an American from Texas is trying to get him deported because he wants to take away some type of guns in America. As he watched, I listened to parts and was completely embarrassed by the end.
This man from Texas became everything I hate about this country in a matter of seconds. It was infuriating and I don't know how anyone could side with him. He was completely rude by talking over the host of the show and evading the questions by picking on little things about the man questioning him that weren't relevant to the conversation.
He then went on to say Americans NEED semi automatic guns to defend themselves against robbers and thugs as well as saying that they have caused more good than harm even though all of the really bad shootings that have been in the media lately have all been used by these guns.
Where I live people aren't always waiting for hunting season. It's not a pride thing that most of the people do. And I'm glad for that cause it just makes me sick. There is no need for hunting when there are other animals to eat. But I don't give a crap what you do on your own time. If you want to go out and kill an innocent creature, by all means. But to say that you NEED a certain gun is fucking ridiculous.
All guns can cause some type of harm in some way or another. You don't NEED the biggest baddest gun to go out and shoot an animal that has no weapon of its own. You just don't. In fact, you don't need a gun at all. If you REALLY want to kill an animal that bad, grab a knife and go do it yourself. "But it's dangerous" then don't do it at all! The natives didn't need a gun and neither do you.
As for self defense, you also don't need a big ass gun. How about a hand gun or how about a pocket knife? I really don't see the need to have guns at all. Cops, I can understand. But does a woman really need a huge gun to scare a thug? What ever happened to mace? What ever happened to these...
But the thing that ticked me off the most is when this man told the English guy he needed to go out shooting with him so he could become a real American. FUCK THAT! That is exactly the type of people that give this fucking country a terrible name! THEY are the people that give this country the rep it has and make us all look like a bunch of red neck assholes.
To think that people like that are freaking out and making a scene only makes our country look worse. And by the way they act on camera just adds to the problem. I am completely embarrassed to be called the same thing as those people and I just wish people could see that America isn't a few idiots.
It's like, if we had a large group of Christians together helping the community and then a couple of them decided, hey this God thing isn't for me, lets worship Satan, you wouldn't automatically assume the whole group is like that just because of them. But it's happened with America and I'm afraid it will never change. It's sad cause I didn't even see this much hate in Mexico and that place is scary!
America isn't a bad country. It's a place like every where else. Just with a lot more voices yelling out and mucking the water.
