At the rural firehouse they were talking about taking guns to school and hunting afterwards. They didn't understand idiots shooting the place up and it wouldve never occurred to them to do that back in the day.
We all used to take our guns to school. Even our superintendent and a lot of the teachers.
Now we have a lot of schools (and this number is actually growing) that have skeet and trap shooting clubs. Not all kids are made for football, basketball, baseball, track ... It's a great outlet for kids who don't want to play 'ball'.
