I'm not sure how the idea that we hand undisciplined teenage boys firearms and power over the rest of the population any less horrific than what I described.


I'm not saying it's not horrific, it just to me kind of makes this otherwise surreal state of affairs make sense. A grown man who doesn't know how to responsibly wield power to me seems extremely similar to a teenage boy not knowing how to properly behave with new strength and freedoms. Put a bunch of these similar people together with no responsible authority to control them, and you often end up with toxic and dangerous cultures.
