That is the second time you mentioned this. I am wondering if you think someone else doing something stupid it makes it OK for this grown man to do something stupid? 18 is considered an adult. By the way.
Can't imagine why you would think or wonder that. It's quite an erroneous stretch. However, you would not be the first one on here to make such an error .

I think it is absolutely terrible and idiotic for someone to do this. I think it's even worse for a mature adult to do it with real guns. Look at where we are because of stupid stunts such as this. The point in an making is obvious. There are still those that are pushing the retailers even though the negative pressure against the RKBA is greater than any time I remember.

We would all be better off by not making such erroneous assumptions about what people think or intend. If you have a question or don't understand, just ask without making negative attributions. .

By the way, it is proven scientific fact male brains aren't fully developed until some time in the early to mid 20's. There a reason people aren't allowed to vote, by alcohol and tobacco until a certain age. Why do you think insurance companies charge more for makes until the r reach 25?
Your comments actually gave every impression you were excusing his stupidity based on someone others stupidity. Don't get upset with me when you made the posts. The reality is that this young man did something extra ignorant when one considers the climate of Americans all being scared to death of a new nut job shooting up the next location. We don't live in a vacuum. We are on the heels of three mass shootings.
Again, you made false assumptions or didn't understand my point. A simple question without false attribution or negative assumptions would have been much more appropriate.

There are posts on this forum of forum members saying they are going to our have been open carrying in Walmart to test Walmart response after seeing that they have indicated they do not want people open carrying. Your last couple of sentences are exactly why I'm stressing how stupid it is to do so.

You and I have both been on this forum a long time and have many posts, you may want to consider giving the benefit of the doubt instead of making false assumptions.

It's a shame you can't see we agree with each other.
:iagree: and I see your point now. I have also read others post of "testing the water"" and now is a really bad time for this IMHO.

C'mon folks. There are upsides to millennials too. Without them, there'd be far fewer people to make fun of :biggrinjester:
True. In addition, they sure make us boomers look good. :mrgreen:

There are no jokes for boomers. We were the last generation with a brain.

and they vote! :shock:
The voting age should never have been lowered EXCEPT for active military! For everybody else, it should have been raised to 30.
:woohoo
Yep, or least until they are old enough to know how to use a set of head pullers. I don't know if the directions are on the internet so most of them will never figure it out.

I blame the people that raised the Millenials, gen Y'ers and gen Z'ers that do stupid stuff and make stupid decisions.
Yep... it is a fact. I am not sure how one puts that Genie back in the bottle. I believe the internet and social media contributed.

Well it does in this case. Using the word "millennial" does apply to Y and Z. Like it or not.

https://whatis.techtarget.com/definitio ... generation
A Time magazine article placed the Millennials at 1980-2000.
Overall, the earliest proposed birthdate for Millennials is 1976 and the latest 2004.
Argue over who is and isn’t a millenial all you want, making broad statements about an entire generation is as narrow minded as racism, sexism, or any other prejudice. There are good and bad in every generation including your generation. May I also remind you, who raised these “millennials”?
Virtue signaling 101.

ScottDLS wrote: Sat Sep 07, 2019 11:06 am I think with people having children later the colloquial definition of "generation" and age cohorts is getting wider. The "baby boomers" were post WWII (all the men coming back from the war) 1945-1965. I am the next cohort 1966 and my dad doesn't really fit "boomer" 1940 (WWII/end of the depression era). His older brother (RIP) tail end of depression era 1935. All are loose categorizations to try to group age cohorts with similar broad life experiences.

And whether one chooses to call them millennial's or post millennial's, they are all part of the last two generations of mindless morons.

According to this link they fit the category.

https://www.urbandictionary.com/define. ... Millennial
Both Generation Y and Generation Z can be called "Millennials," with the primary difference between the two being technology.
Maybe by urban dictionary but I’d trust Pew Research

https://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2 ... -z-begins/
So are you just looking to play internet combat? The vast majority of links show Millennials as gen Y and Gen Z. But meanwhile... back on topic. :tiphat:
