MODERATORS
It’s rather complicated. In the “in-between” times, firearms were considered a coward’s weapon, making the user a “sniper” and thus less honorable than those who used more traditional arms. This faded with time however, as most ideas do.
Yeah, because the people that thought that way got fucking shot.
"what're you going to do, coward? shoot me?"
Also because they became more accurate and more skill dependent. Early guns were just RNG. That's why muskets were most useful fired in barrages.
Words of wisdom
The Pope tried banning crossbows
In latin languages it's even called "besta" to indicate it's from the beast (Satan)
Bro American Sniper was a fucking badass film. No politics or anything. Just a guy shooting terrorists.
Bro really called "just a guy shooting terrorists" apolitical
It has the same quality as that nazi propaganda sniper movie from inglorious basterds. Just different insignias
Wow. That's such an unhinged viewpoint.
I just hate military propaganda with passion
Showing all these cringy hero scenes with lofty music black hawk down etc. We are the good guys, heroes and all that horseshit.
