Ah, yes. Things are beginning to spiral. Where do we draw the line? Pretty soon it will be illegal to give children time outs because of the emotional trauma caused...

I dont think you would have to go back to 1977 to see that, Hell when I was in school we brought our guns all the time. I even brought it into school to give a demonstration on how to clean a gun and that was in jr high when I had to bring it on the bus. Yes I would bring guns on the school bus to school when I was about 14-15 years old. Cant do that now

I graduated in 2004 and I brought in guns for a demonstration once. Had to give an oral presentation and I chose to demonstrate the advancement of weapons...my dad had inherited a collection that included some WW1 weapons and some civil war replicas. Course, I was in a private school so thats probably why I could get away with it

Wow, I can't imagine School being that awesome...
