It will be more fun than you can even begin to imagine, sounds like you have been watching to much TV. You need to spend some time out with your Dad shooting. My 6 year old daughter will tell you how fun it is to go hunting, she has been going with me since she was 2, hasnt missed a season yet. :wink:

Why are are you a "socialist"?

Why is it against your beliefs to have guns?

Please explain what you believe to be the advantage of these positions.
They may talk of a "New Order" in the  world, but what they have in mind is only a revival of the oldest and worst tyranny.   No liberty, no religion, no hope.   It is an unholy alliance of power and pelf to dominate and to enslave the human race.

Sierra Rose;
   From another Upstate NYer;
   Try paying as much heed to Dad's ways as you probably are to your evidently Marxist-leaning teachers.
   At your age, you probably are quite young to have settled upon Socialism as a likely philosophy....balance the Socialist propaganda you're getting by listening to Rush Limbaugh just as much....then decide for yourself.
   Meanwhile, enjoy Dad's company while he is hunting or shooting...
 
   A rifle or shotgun is an honorable sporting implement, just like a baseball bat, golf club, camping knife or hockey stick.
 
   Used in an evil way by an evil person any of these can kill someone....depends upon the person....
 
   Ask Dad to start you out plinking with a .22....then soon, I bet he will be willing to get one that "just fits you".
   
    In the category of shooting .22 target rifles, women can often as not, beat men at the sport...
 
   Spend as much quality time with Dad as you can....you will soon be grown up and these "together times" are memories you will always treasure....


      Blessings; ...Ironglow

Given your tender age you may or may not carry the current set of values too adult hood. There may be a peer enviorment that has given you your current ones it sounds like your family values differ some and your interest may prevail. By all means go with your feelings to shoot and hunt with your family. Good luck  :D

Ha!  Nothing get's past you Jim?  Maybe it's all that moderator experience you've chalked up?  People seem to be falling for ALOT of things around here lately.  *smiles*

Why are you here? I dunno. I've asked myself that question several times after reading your posts. If you don't have an answer perhaps you should go and think on it and decide what it is you really want to do and what you really believe. I honestly don't think the answer is here. It might be between you and your dad you can figure out what it is you want. As for me I think you hate what he does yet want to please him and think coming here will do that. But then I don't even know you so perhaps I'm totally wet on that evaluation.

Not so fast guys;
  The poster may or may not be genuine...so what !
 
   If she was genuine, she gathered some good advice, if not....then perhaps some young lurker was in need of just such counsel...

   Very few things are just " accidents" or " coincidences ".

   I would prefer to think that there was a young person out there that needed those answers...whether it was the poster ...or someone else!
