Wat’s Carbon Water-N-Stuff Thread - Concepts In Iron And Wood!!!

Interesting report on 60 Minutes tonight that chronicles the effects of blast overpressure on the brains of individuals who frequently fire guns:

https://www.cbsnews.com/amp/news/veteran-traumatic-brain-injury-60-minutes/

The key lines from the report:

"And with the explosion comes the formation of something called the blast wave," Perl told 60 Minutes. "And it is sufficiently powerful to pass through the skull and through the brain."

“Perl found scarring in Ryan Larkin's brain, but there was one big difference: Ryan had not been hit by a roadside bomb. Most of what he endured was low-level, repeated shocks from his own weapons, like a large caliber rifle notorious for leaving gunners dizzy.”

😳

That ^ explains soooooo much, and it is yet another argument in favor of gun control legislation.

There are likely MILLIONS of gun "aficionados" who NEVER EVEN served in the military who are suffering from the type of brain damage outlined in the report. Gun "aficionados" who are armed to the teeth and waiting to have that “one bad day”. (Looks at Wat, etc.)

Something definitely needs to be done about the brain damaged ticking time bombs that are the gun “aficionados". (Looks at Wat, etc, again).

At the very least, gun "aficionados" should have their brains scanned to see if they’re mentally / psychologically compromised. (Looks at Wat, etc, again.)

All the faults of our mind – our selfishness, ignorance, anger, attachment, guilt, and other disturbing thoughts – are temporary, not permanent and everlasting. And since the cause of our suffering – our disturbing thoughts and obscurations – is temporary, our suffering is also temporary.
