You haven’t seen what’s popular for XBox and Playstations now days? “Entertainment” companies profit hugely by encouraging learning how to kill quickly. It’s exciting and attracts the lowest common denominator of humans. Evolution makes things better and better, right? Yeah, right!
@WildBill40You’ve not met my cat, Taika, or for that matter I once had a Whippet that would kill any critter that moved within 6 ft. of him.They preferred pet food, however.
For those who are comparatively younger and are upset about the “violence”, please know that this was a common game in our neighborhoods – a parcel of daily kid life – and the world didn’t seem to be nearly as violent or dangerous back then.
@JohnnyDiego if a kid tried that with me, while his parents watched, i’d screwup my face, curve my fingers into claws, slowly stagger towards him, and croak, “starving..your BRAIN !”

And the next words out of Hobbes’ mouth will be something to the effect that Calvin couldn’t hit the broad side of a barn even if he were standing right in front of it!

It is suitable for children, Hobbes is not being hurt in any way.

We needed better imagination and cooperation in pre-paintball days. I had the greatest stick, er gun, till Dad raked it up with the leaves.

Here is a very young Charlie Brown, age 6, like Calvin. This is from 1951, only four months after Peanuts began:Peanuts

I’m amazed that everyone has been sidetracked from the actual point of the strip, namely, that Hobbes cheats at every game that he plays with Calvin!

There is nothing more infuriating for a little boy than to see a mock-gun-fight-cheater…

Calvin’s aim isn’t so steady due to being hopped up on Sugar Frosted Chocolate Bombs. His hands are shaking like those of a caffeine addict.

Well, at least Calvin and Hobbs can distinguish fantasy for reality.

Great thing for a child to learn, or anyone for that matter. Killing. Humans are a very nasty thing indeed.

Calvin has to control Hobbes better for this game to be fun.

My theory is that Hobbes unloaded Calvin’s gun, and he never reloaded. . . .
