If I was in 6th grade and a girl asked "Do you like me" when she sent that video... I'd probably move to another state instead of saying "no"

Annie (ex step-daughter) was a crack shot with a .22 rifle, even though she did not shoot much, she learned the basics. I think (almost) everyone should know the basics of gun safety and how to shoot. = but on topic: She used that factoid to change how some young men related to and treated her. Not threatening, but more of a "treat me equally and with a little respect" kind of thing.

And Dan, her dad might be following her on dates with night vision goggle and a ghillie suit. Or not, cause she's got a .38 snubby on her.

But seriously, Mom or Dad might be military, cop or gun-nut, and daughter was just around it a lot and likes it. Once you've done a live fire combat training course, video games just don't have the same appeal. I want her on my team.
