    When I was a little kid I brought a revolver into school on Halloween. Was part of my costume and no one said anything about it.

    Was a starter pistol (shot blanks) but dad wouldn’t let me take any bullets, lol

    High School we all carried knives, I always had a sheathed Buck knife. Could carry that bad boy on a plane too. No one ever bothered me and I didn’t bother anyone either.

    Glad I grew up when I did, life today just makes the thought of dying that much easier.

    After Columbine (and few other incidents) things in schools changed.
    At my high school they had metal detectors at the main entrance,but that didn’t stop someone from detonating a firecracker in one of the trash cans in the cafeteria!
    Prior to that the most serious incident was someone getting stabbed in a fight in the cafeteria-with a SPORK!!!
    Our hall monitors were off duty city police officers that would respond at a moment’s notice to any incidents!
    Gotta love the 90s!!
