[–] DragonTypeWyvern@literature.cafe 3 points 2 years ago (1 child) Just saying there are places you can pay to fire a mini gun. Not at cops, but it's pretty fun. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] merc@sh.itjust.works 15 points 2 years ago Yes... in the US. That's kind-of the point. Europeans get to play at being a slightly-exaggerated version of an American, living out their fantasies about letting go of all their inhibitions. But, they wouldn't want to actually live in a place like that. Americans can put down the game, but then have to live in a place where an average Joe can go pay to fire a mini gun, then go to Wal*Mart and buy an AR-15 just for funsies. permalink fedilink source parent
