Lacey Township NJ – -(Ammoland.com)- Two students at Lacey Township High-school, NJ were suspended for posting a picture of themselves shooting guns at a private gun range with the caption “fun day at the range“. The school's zero tolerance policy says that students cannot be in possession of weapons at any time, whether on or off campus.

Association of New Jersey Rifle and Pistol Clubs today demanded in a lawyer letter that the Lacey Township School District immediately rescind disciplinary actions taken against several students for posting social media photos of themselves near firearms at a target range.

In junior high I would sit in the library and lunch room and look at gun magazines with a buddy of mine.

Before our classes started my friends and I would look at, and drool, over the new firearms catalogs.

Those were the days.

I remember reloading a few hundred rounds of .308 for a friend of mine. We looked at them in the hallway and then he put them in his locker for the day. Lengthy prison term for that nowadays.

You have to be at least 18 to buy a slingshot or parts of one apparently. I was about 50 at the time.

Back when I was 14 years old I started reloading my rifle and shotgun ammo because there were no age restrictions on purchasing the components, but you had to be 18 to purchase loaded center fire ammo and 16 for 22LR ammo (had to sign a form stating the 22LR was for long gun use, not pistol).

The policy reads: "any student who is reported to be in possession of a weapon of any type for any purpose or reason whether on or off school grounds ..." That means you can't be in possession of a knife that can cut steak, a knife kept in your fishing tackle box and used for fileting fish, an axe or hatchet for cutting wood ... ... heck, if you're Bruce Campbell, that means a chainsaw as well ... I'd really like to see them be non-hypocritical and censure all students who have used a steak knife during the school year. In fact, if the school has a field and track team, they'd better not be throwing a javelin ...

How do they play baseball without bats?

A shod foot has been considered a weapon.

We never did that. But we would set up our army men on the dirt piles and then take turns shooting each other’s army.

My brother and I had one of those big five or six gallon metal cans full of the small army soldiers and would spend an entire afternoon setting them up and then shooting each other's army.

Great times.

I kind of remember signing for .22 ammo. It was just in a notebook that nobody ever saw. For some reason you didn’t have to sign for anything but .22 ammo.

Back in the day dealers were required to keep sales records for handgun ammo.

Could be that it was the only ammo that they sold that could be used in a handgun the rest being for rifles or shotguns.

The dealer used to ask us whether the .22 was for a rifle or handgun.

Back then there wern't many long guns that were chambered for pistol ammo. I know there were a few but not many.

When I was 16 I started buying my own 22LR for my rifle. Every Friday night my parents would get home from work and we would travel up to our place in the north woods of Michigan. I would buy a 500 round brick of 22LR ($2.50 - $3 per brick) and by the time we were to head back home Sunday evening the brick would be all gone.

The New Iron Curtain goes up around a few of the states in the northeast. Sad.

“The principal would come out and admire new rifles or shotguns with us.”

That was back before America was colonized and destroyed by the Marxists.

One-hundred twelve years since these words were spoken.

PRESIDENT THEODORE ROOSEVELT: (Sixth State of the Union Address, December 3, 1906)

“Our Regular Army is so small that in any great war we should have to trust mainly to volunteers; and in such event these volunteers should already know how to shoot; for if a soldier has the fighting edge, and ability to take care of himself in the open, his efficiency on the line of battle is almost directly Proportionate to excellence in marksmanship. We should establish shooting galleries in all the large public and military schools, should maintain national target ranges in different parts of the country, and should in every way encourage the formation of rifle clubs throughout all parts of the land. The little Republic of Switzerland offers us an excellent example in all matters connected with building up an efficient citizen soldiery.”

Can’t shoot a gun.
Can’t own a bible.
Can’t be pro-life.
and the hits just keep on coming.
