When I was in high school, guys left their hunting rifles in the gun holder mounted across the back window of their pickups, with the pickup unlocked in the parking lot of the school. We didn’t feel like that made us like inmates in a prison.
My brother in the 1950s used to walk to school with his .22 rife hung across his back. He locked in his school locker and used it for his sharp shooting club. No one thought a thing about it.
Now kids walk through metal detectors, have pat downs and lockdowns, bag and locker searches, drug sniffing dogs walk the hallways, and solitary confinement rooms.
