When I was in high school in central Florida, students often had rifle racks in the back window of their truck. With rifles in them.

There was a related post on FR yesterday, but I can't remember the title to find it and post a link.

Humor and figures of speech are concepts foreign to woke leftards. Telling a joke was considered “counter revolutionary activity”, as well as “promoting insurrection “, with a one year sentence in the DDR (Kiss my arse, I’m in the west now).

Same here. I had an old International Harvester Scout with gun racks in the windows. During hunting season, the principal would always encourage us to bring our shotguns to school incase the weather conditions got right to go duck hunting. He’d dismiss class. He was a big duck and rabbit hunter with Beagles. Those were great times. It’s ashame what this world has come to. This crap started when they started putting kids on psych meds that eventually started them shooting up schools.

“When I was in high school in central Florida, students often had rifle racks in the back window of their truck. With rifles in them.”

Same here, to add to that in the 90’s we took rifles onto a major US Air Base and no one cared.

Much of this started to change in the mid-90’s and worsened with our lib presidents Clinton, Bush and really slid downhill with obama.

Back to rifle racks, I recall rifles in the back window of pickups, pickups running, and unlocked while the owners where in a store or bar. No one even thought of stealing the pickup or a gun.

As little kids everyone had loaded guns in their home and no little kid ever thought of picking one up and shooting someone. We all knew shooting killed and dead was dead.

It’s amazing how the left has changed our culture.
