    I’m a lefty in a very red state. Everytime I go to the gun range, there is some idiot without ear pro. Now I took care of my hearing, even going so far as to wear earplugs at concerts(which invited a ton of teasing). Even then I have had short bouts of tinnitus and it fucking sucks!

    The one pleasure I draw from this is knowing their unpleasant future.

      I bet they don’t wear ear pro at the range because they’re already deaf. Even at the most red-necking shooting parties, hurling skeets in the quarry, we’re stringent on safety and covering our damn ears. One friend of a friend refused and I was like “You either put on the ears or I will lovingly hold your head while you shoot, you pick.”
