Drew came home from December's camping trip with a rifle shooting merit badge. It wasn't until last week that I saw this picture, though. It makes me laugh and cringe at the same time. I showed it to a few folks and this is what they've said:A mom: Oh, the poor dears! It's obviously too cold to be outside. Look at his little nose! Get these boys inside and warm!
A former boy scout: When I was in scouts and we were at the rifle range ... (he then talked for 10 minutes. I don't remember much of the one-sided conversation except that it had to do with squirrels.)
A fundraiser: Why don't they go to the indoor shooting range? Do you need some ideas for raising money?
A teenage boy: Lock and load!
Another mom: You LET him do this?
Yet another mom: This is why they don't take moms on their camping trips.
A 30-year-old single man: BLEEP! (This comment is not fit for the genteel blogosphere.)
Scholarship Dude: YIKES! Children with rifles?!?!
So I'm still laughing and cringing.
