You couldn’t be more wrong. I grew up about 150 miles from Kansas City... yes, I am in my 70’s. But at my high school parking lot, you could walk out in the student section any afternoon and find dozens of trucks with gun racks, with both a rifle and shotgun — unlocked. Most of the cars had a pistol or two in the glove box ... again unlocked. WE NEVER HAD A PROBLEM.
Guns don’t kill people and pencils don’t misspell words. People kill people... where did we loose the basic value of respecting others? I remember in the 50’s of separate bathrooms at the county fair... but society saw the error of that and they were eliminated. Frankly speaking is see more racism propagated by minorities than by “whites”.

You couldn’t be more wrong.

Oh, I’ve been more wrong many times! I’m about your age, grew up in SoCal and moved to rural MO in the early 70s. Yes, high school kids at the school I taught at had rifles and shotguns in gun racks in their trucks, it was required by law back then—they couldn’t be concealed.

But perhaps you missed the /s at the end of my post?
