We have become so desensitized with killing now with the Tendo and these other games that people think that, you know, when you're doing this, they don't realize the impact of a game versus a real game.

a real uh uh uh instrument uh that person if you shoot them they're not gonna get back up again on that gang they will so you kind of like well if i shoot them you know they'll jump back up that's not happening or i can just shoot them in the leg and that you know and and i think that there's a there as as you just said there's a desensitizing that we've done that we need to really have some conversations about and the reality is this the other thing i want to make real quick is that

A lot of people don't want to bring up topics because they don't want to lose their friends. You know, you know, they're just certain, you know, everybody's so sensitive and politically correct. And, you know, so you can't really talk about a lot of things.

But yet those things that you don't talk about are the things that's hurting you and your family or could potentially hurt you and your family. And so you would rather risk saving a relationship versus sometimes saving your own family. And I mean, so that's what health chatter is about. I know I'm on a limb here, but that's how I feel.

Is there any thought on that? I think, Stan, this is glaring. I think that part of what we have to acknowledge is that there are systemic things that are happening in this country. There's systemic pressures that are being applied to certain groups of people. There are certain kind of unrealistic expectations that are placed on people. And people are, you know, somebody used the term traumatized.

And I try not to get too far into that lane, but that's the reality. People are underneath the pressure. And so we live in a, when I was growing up, we lived in a John Wayne kind of society too, where if you're going to handle your problems, you know, you beat them up or you shoot them or whatever that kind of thing.

I mean, so you can develop a certain kind of, whether it's a kind of unknown or it's kind of suppressed feeling about, about certain kinds of things. And that's how you handle, how you handle your problems. And so I think that part of,

what's happening is that based on what you see on TV, based on how people present things, based on the rap, based on the media, I mean, there is a certain kind of image that's placed on people so that they, fortunately, their life is imitating art. It's not that art imitates life.

Think about that. Think about that. What you just said. Or safer. Yeah. No, no, no, no. Think about what you just said. Isn't it sad that that. we know that there are certain pressures applied to certain groups that may not necessarily be applied to other groups. The hope is that we don't let our group become affected like that group. And that's sad because all of us should have a sense of safety.

All of us should have a sense of protection, but that's not true in this country, you know? And so, I think that those are the kinds of things that we have to be honest about as we start talking about this issue of why do we have so many unlocked guns? Why do we have so many guns? Why are our children impacted by this? What do we as parents say about these issues?

And then how do we effectively message so that other people can take more safety measures in order to address the issue?
