“drinking” culture, “bicycle” culture, “car” culture. It’s just a way to express society’s attitude towards those in animate object, and how our lives are impacted as a result.

Appropriate regulations would allow the responsible carrying of weapons while stripping people like this of the ability to, well…do that. It would also probably help to normalize the culture in the eyes of the people who speak up against it.

“P…p…pull my trigger, senpai?”
