Agreed… crazy how much has changed yet we don’t think about it that often.
If a kid played cops and robbers with a cap gun now, the ATF would show up in 5 minutes.
Pretty much. And if a dog gets out of someone’s yard they call animal control.
Growing up my parents had a ton of woods behind there house. All summer we’d spend all day back there riding bikes, building forts, setting shit on fire with magnifying glasses, digging deep ass holes, you know general kid tomfoolery. We’d come home filthy scraped up bruised, etc and our parents would just say “looks like you had fun, go clean up for dinner”
They still have cap guns in walmart lol
Yeah they do. I remember the cap gun would usually break before you ran out of caps. That’s how I discovered hitting them in full roll form with a bat was way better.
Shift hide n seek game.
I don’t know where you guys live, but there are 20 kids that roam my block in packs. The one’s parent asked if it was OK if their kids hunted squirrels in the neighborhood. I saw him running around with his brothers hiding and shooting a pellet gun. The kid promised to use all of the squirrel. LOL
I always took them off or painted them black
good idea paul
You just brought back my childhood
