THIS IS ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL. AND WHO SAYS WE CAN'T LEARN FROM KIDS?

A remarkable phone call from a 12-yr old boy to Houston radio station KSBJ FM 89.3. So profound, the station has it posted on their website. Click below to listen to it. It's short .

thats pretty nice, well spoken little kid.
 
I agree a very well spoken and intelligent kid but i wonder how he put the cow out himself?
''this morning i went out and put her down myself''
 
Now that's a kid who's parents spent time with him, not like most of the kids around here.

i assume he shot it, thats how we always had to do it when i was ranching/farming.
 
intelligent as he may seem ,it alarms me that he uses a gun.. or do all kids use guns at his age when working on a farm ? ?
 
I believe it is very common in ranching areas. Besides they learn that guns are a tool that demands respect from an early age.

exactly, when i was in school we could have guns in our cars and i remember when i was young having kids bring guns in for show and tell. not anymore though I'm pretty sure they changed all that.
 
I am glad you are all enjoying this. I thought it was very nice, So thats why I shared it with my all of my RCNT friends...:)

I started shooting when I was 5 I grew up on a ranch also nothing big just some horses and pigs and stuff like that. I shot a 12 ga shotgun when I was 7 in a skeet shooting competition and won. My parents always taught me to respect gunsand to treat every gun as if it were loaded and all my friends got taught the same so we were out hunting by our selves at 10 years old with 30/30's 22's shot guns. Its all how your raised I guess. I have put many animals down weather it be hunting or just cause they hurt themselves or for "harvest" Its really just a part of farm life. I can't say I agree with the kid cause i'm not religious but He is very well spoken and passionate. Good post.

Aye. I've been living in Montana for a few years now after spending my whole life in California. Guns are veiwed in a totally different way here. And I gotta tell ya, Armed robbery, drivebys and that stuff, just doesn't happen here. I was pleasantly suprised when I met my 13 year old son's friends he's met here. Just the same kind of kids as the one in the video. Very well spoken and more polite than I've ever seen in....you know....the C word. NO not THAT C word! I meant California!!!


You should come to northern california its a whole different world up here :)
 
And so a child shall lead them!

Man, got to get a glass of tea... feeling a major knot in my throat.
 
Don't get me wrong I'm not knockin CA or anything. Just parts of it. I grew up in Northern Cali but not quite as far north as Oroville (San Jose/SF bay area). Used to dirtbike in Redding a lot. Of course I've been all over CA and there is some of the most beautiful country in the world there. It just also happens to be full of a-holes.:D

...not to go off on a different tanget or anything...:)



Oh I agree I dont go south of sacramento if I can help it lol
