My how things have changed I used to go to school with deer rifles in my truck window during the deer hunt.

We also used to get out of school the Friday before the deer hunt started so we could go hunting with our families. it was like a holiday.

Last year i had a friend of mine get suspended from school just because he had a airsoft gun in his truck cause we were gonna go have airsoft wars after school. Stuff like this just pisses me off.

LAST EDITED ON Nov-04-07 AT 02:13PM (MST)[p]wow, that's BS for sure, I cant believe they did not do a lockdown and call in the bomb squad, and snipers . . .

What a bunch of crap. When I was a kid, I worked on guns in wood shop class. . . takem' to school and walkem' right in the door. . .

I'd hate for that to still be the policy however. Too many wackos out there to let them bring guns to school.

They should have just shot that beeeatch and asked questions later. . .

He he he. . .
