It’s ok those kids are all AI generated… So this guy can sell 3D printed fake guns to actual kids.
God I fucking hate it here.

This insane. I had to check if those were real.
They are.
What the fuck.
That’s definitely the how’s it going…in fact…

We had toy guns in the 70s that absolutely looked real. Hell, I had a BB/dart gun that would pass for a 1911, even up close. Heavy metal too. I have several real guns that weigh less, and worse, some look like toys. The kids got a demonstration of that reality.

True quote.

Thanks. Teaching them gun safety was far easier than I thought. Now they’re hyper-aware of where the muzzle is pointed, though my daughter sometimes slips her finger onto the trigger walking to the target.
In any case, they will not touch a gun unless:
I also taught them what proper handling looks like; Unloading, showing an empty chamber to the person you’re handing it too, etc. Never know when some asshole friend will break out dad’s super cool pistol and pass it around.
