1. I did not call "everyone in [your] country" anything.
2. I have no expressed no disapproval about guns thus far.
3. Please gain a little perspective and a sense of humour, or at the bare minimum, learn to pick your fights a little better. I was quite clearly not out to vilify or offend anyone, I was simply making a snarky response to a bizarre advertisment in a community designed expressly for that purpose. Regardless of my opinion on gun ownership, any ad that talks about a boy's innate hankering to shoot stuff as part of his heritage is ripe for poking fun at. I gather that you support gun ownership or shooting, which is fine, but I see no reason for you to attack me as a means to expressing this viewpoint. At no point was my tone towards you hostile or critical; it's a shame you couldn't have extended me the same courtesy.
