Perhaps you get along with other adult human beings fine, but, let me say it again -- you killed animals for fun as a child. That's ####ed up. Socrates once said the unexamined life isn't worth living. Examine your life.
You went out as little kid, killed things -- blasted their bodies open -- for fun. You took their lives for nothing. Abso-lutely nothing.
It isn't about population control, it's about nothing else but having some fun by taking life. Population control, in the case of your dead coyotes, is just a beneficial side effect. You didn't kill them for that -- like you said, you did it for kicks. That isn't taking guns seriously, not even close. I hate to make the analogy, but if I go kill a person for fun that's about to be fried in an electric chair and is better off for it anyway, that doesn't make what I did any less ####ed up.
I feel affected by this whole ####. This school shooting, the constant excuse making in the United States, the refusal to own up to despicable actions. Over and over I read on websites Americans refusing to acknowledge the ####ed up gun culture that possesses their country. They just refuse to do it. Children get massacred and they just won't do it. It's going to happen again, and still nothing will be done. All because of . . . what?
I think I'll take a break from the internet for a few days.

Yeah you probably should because you're being a pretentious #######. Who are you to judge what's right and wrong? Im not calling you a dip#### because you didn't do the stuff I did. I don't believe I have put anyone down for any of their differing views here. Why? Because it's not for me to put people down for what they believe.
Anyone could make an argument to put someone else's views down. I could say , you probably drive a car. You drive a car because you like to , or it gets you somewhere faster .... however do you know how many bugs you kill, CO2 you release into the air , natural resources you use up by driving cars? yet you still choose to drive a car.... What an #######
or Calgarians love going to the stampede. It's fun they enjoy it but with going to and supporting that event they are perpetuating a cycle of chuckwagon races where horses die needlessly. What #######s
( Note: I dont believe either of these things but just pointing out arguments people could make about what other people do)
I could go on and on...
You should worry about yourself and less about what others do. I shot turtles as a 7 yr old kid because my dad said, see if you can hit the turtle on that rock across the pond. I didnt think twice about it and I still wouldn't. Guess what, there are still as many turtles in that pond today. I didn't get off on killing things because I was killing things. I was doing because that's what people did and I just did it . Is that right or wrong? Who am I to judge? but more importantly who the hell are you to judge?
I'll give you a couple Socrates quotes you can chew on too..
"The only true wisdom is in knowing you know nothing."
"Strong minds discuss ideas, average minds discuss events, weak minds discuss people."
and finally
"“When the debate is lost, slander becomes the tool of the loser.”
