    Shitheads get into all hobbies. Some hobbies are more dangerous than others, and need more safety than others.

    You know what’s a dangerous hobby that ALSO appeals to masculinity-troubled people? Modding cars to go faster and drift harder. You can tool around in them legally and if you drive like a shithead you can drive through a crowd. Modding pickups is also a big shitwaffle magnet. Still a hobby.

    I avoided the whole “are guns the problem” subject in my comment for a reason. My comment served to illustrate that collecting large numbers of “Object” is a hobby. Whether or not the hobby is good, or bad, or dangerous, or safe, was not my comment.

      Again, using hypothetical other people to dodge what this person did: executed a family member with a legal firearm.

        No, it was a correction of how people collecting guns is not like collecting the same toaster over and over, more like different toasters, specifically not addressing anyone’s use of them.
