    There’s literally nothing stopping them from passing down their cultural love for hunting while only lending their children guns.

      You’re not wrong, but it’s still why they do it as far as I can tell from having friends that hunt and were taught by their fathers.

        Well I grew up with a dad that hunted and took me hunting, I was even an Eagle Scout, but I didn’t actually own a gun until later in my 20s. There’s just no good reason for kids to have their own guns and it needs to stop.

        Also, gotta be honest, now that I’m older I think hunting is kinda fucked up in itself. I’m not gonna try to fight that battle tho lol
