Take some time to looks through these real quick and tell me what you think

Maybe I'm looking too much into this but IMO the photographer is using kids to try to make whatever point he is going for.. So every American kid's bedroom looks like this?

Another way to look at it would be to understand that this guy is a hack because I'm sure the kids in Scotland don't all look like the one he chose to be in this article.

I want the world to think there is a rifle behind every blade of grass in America

If he was trying to make a propaganda point, it went over my head.

It said "...he thought about his own childhood bedroom and how it reflected who he was."

I can see that point. It is up to the viewer to determine if the Kentucky boy's reflection is negative. Obviously, I don't.

Think I don't want to mess with the kid with the bone axe.

Looks to me like the kid with guns has nice things and the others not so much...

to me it was just like "American kids in the south just have guns laying around their bedroom"

idk it just sat wrong with me


how many bedrooms for a kid have you seen like that?


hell I killed my first deer and duck at ages 7 and 8 but I never had my shotguns/rifles lying around

My thoughts pretty much are the same as Choirboy's. I want the world to think all American's grow up around and are extremely proficient with a gun.

My only gripe with the article is his note at the end. WHY must Americans always be the ones to provide the rest of the world with things they do not have?

I missed the propaganda. I just saw a bunch of kids from around the world. Some look like sad cases, and I find it sad that some kids have to grow up living on dirt floors in slums. As for the kid in Kentucky, seemed like an odd choice for the only US kid, but I guess he likes to hunt. I find it odd that his guns are typically just laying around like that, and wonder why they aren't in a case or cabinet or safe...

Also, those kids are people, and while a 6 year old girl might work all day in a mine, she still would probably like to play. I just find that sad.
I just took it as a reminder that we are pretty fricking fortunate here.

I'm guessing that's not what his room normally looks like. Just dressed it up for the camera with the shotguns and bow.

I would think the reasoning is that because we do have them??

The hack behind that article obviously has some misplaced guilt. He could have found snapped a few photos of the bedroom of a son of a Qatari sheikh, or the pad of a Russian billionaire's daughter, or maybe found a spot in the Appalachian foothills and found an American bedroom to match the majority of the rest he snapped.

Most of them look dressed up to some extent.
