Also, America has a gun violence crisis. I know men with entire arsenals in their garages, who go out with their whole families on weekends, looking for things to shoot and kill. And even if the "amusement" is merely target practice at a gun range, of what purpose is that unless ultimately you get to kill some living thing.? As in the old saw with playwriting, "if there's a gun on the wall in Act 1, it better go off by Act 3."
