Well , times are changing. growing up in texas, i had a gun rack in my pick-up. 3030 and 306 both loaded , summers in texas where hot, so windows stayed down. now we had , delt with bullies and such. fights still occured.
however i never once, nor did anyone of my friends think of getting a gun or those i had fist fights with during and after school.. yes, i got into trouble alot and they used a paddle,.. .. anyway.
we never once thought about getting a gun,.. .or a stick or knife. two guys fought. when one stopped, quit, or could not continue..we broke the fight up and made them shake hands, and it was done. god help the guy that tried to sucker punch or hold a grudge.
maybe it was the time when i grew up, no one even thought about steeling anything from a car, might as well be a liberal..errr .. sorry. slip there.. but, also back then teachers ruled and if u got in trouble at school, ur ass also got a butt woopen at home, they belived the teachers none of this.. my child is good. parents where... parents, not kids best buddies.
i think we have alot of this due to the breakdown of a standard of moral code , now not everyone agreedd but dam. we didnt have snowflakes and shit.. not saying kids fell thru the cracks, but none would have dont that.
my math teacher actually open carried at our school, he was also the FFA teacher , the biggest issue at our school was catching kids smoking, drinking, dipping snuff, or having sex under the bleachers and such. reall hard core stuff. i guess.
its sad when this happens, but a guy can kill 10+ ppl renting a truck and going to town as kids exit school. so to say. .its guns , ur not going to stop this , just already to many in this country, plus, as has been stated. bad guys, crazy guys .. if they want it, they will get it, then find a "gun free zone" and know 100% everyone is an easy target. me. i dont want to be eazy, im going out shooting, spitting, punching. the media uses this as well as others to push an agenda.
Im kind of pissed the FBI seems to have dropped the ball here. . who knows if we will ever find out. the dam vegas shooting is still not 100% they screwed that up and i bet theres some coverup going on in that whole cluster.... sad kids lost lives. but didnt a guy kill a bunch of elementry kids with a dam hammer. dont see the press trying to ban hammers.. geshhh.
