In the 80”s I brought my 10/22 to school and put it in my unlocked locker, to squirrel hunt after school. My friends did the same, 3 to 7 of us depending on the week and day ect.
What a different world.
Texas and KKKalifornia are too close to Mexico, where this kind of violence is normalized.
Same with us, especially when we were old enough to drive. My high school parking lot was full of trucks with gun racks. Shotguns during bird season, deer rifles during deer season, and a .22 most other times of the year for varmit hunting.
