| Things I brought to high school circa mid 1980s
Civil War sword (History class)
Flail (History class)
.22 Rifle (leather working project - sling)
12 Gauge Shotgun (leather working project - sling)
4+ inch hunting knife (for a shop leather working project in MIDDLE school)
Recurve bow with practice arrows (gym class - believe it or not!)
Most of them were in plain view and even carried (HORRORS!!) on school grounds. Nobody panicked, no police were called, I wasn't suspended, no mass murdering rampage ensued. I dunno WTF has become of our society, it's really scary how pacifistic and horrified we have become at even so much as an image of a firearm. Personally, I believe it's the gov'ts surreptitious way of paving the path through our youth towards a society that is so terrified of firearms that it will have no problem at all with the concept of total disarmament.
But that's just me I guess...
