I was walking around with a gun when I was eight years old. Its called hunting. Cops saw us all the time and never bothered to shoot us.
I got my own first gun at the age of twelve at Christmas, so to answer you-YES!
So let me see, you were walking down a city street by a playground with a gun then right?
When I went hunting it was on a farm or forest setting.
As I said to another poster, there are lots of things we could do decades ago. Gangs, increased violence, hey those were the days.
That’s the way it is.
