minus-squareBlemboTheThird@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up7·9 hours agoI’m guessing it’s a BB gun, but still not good to point at people
minus-squareshadowedcross@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up4·5 hours agoCould still fuck your eyes up.
minus-squareMangoPenguinlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up7·8 hours agoYeah it makes no difference, a gun is a gun.
minus-squaresamus12345@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up14·11 hours agoIt was surprising to see Everett say he didn’t have the right to spank him when he beats the shit out of guys all the time with nary a thought.
minus-squareSeleni@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up15·8 hours agoKids back then were seen as property of their parents (in case you were wondering where that idea comes from when it pops up now and again today), and thus technically their discipline was also the province of their parents.
