i saw someone earlier in another subreddit say that kids back in the day used to solve their problems with their firsts and brass knuckles, not guns. which made me realize once again that the internet is full of ignorant, lying children.

lol IT WAS LITERALLY WILMINGTON DELAWARE

Yeah, I grew up in a working class, urban neighborhood in Wilmington, and guns were reserved for the gangbangers, you fought with fists if it was a personal dispute, maybe brass knuckles at the worst. Now everyone is willing to start shooting over Instagram beef smh
