It wasn't that many years ago (mid 50s and 60s and before, of course), when students were allowed to bring hunting rifles and shotguns to school (and keep them in their lockers) in many parts of the country, so they could be used for hunting on the way home. My, how things have changed. It's funny, but back then we didn't have any shooting incidents at school. Everyone was taught to treat firearms with respect, and they weren't forbiden fruit. Oh yea, lets not forget about high school ROTC members having their drill rifles at school.

I reposted your entire post to me. That world sounds great. I just don't see it here and now.

My son has been told by his classmates that they have their guns out in the trunks of their cars. Do I believe it? Around here, probably, yeah.
