(2,547 posts)it wasn't an attack, it was a visualization of other methods to take wild animals. It has nothing to do with you, per se, just the notion that somehow, a different method of supplying meat for a hungry family would eclipse the firearm. If there were other methods, as efficient, as cost effective... firearms would be collecting dust in the attic.
Nothing, not a crossbow, not a compound bow, not a hoopak, not a sharp stick, will do the job of providing food for the table like a fire arm will.
If we're talking about feeding one's family, I'd take tried and true, over some idea that if we would all beat out guns into plowshares, we could still eat by other methods. Maybe get a group of villagers together, and chase a mastodon off a cliff onto sharp rocks.
