That's a very sad thing you've suffered, Dennis. It's a parent's greatest fear today that something will happen to their kids. They're supposed to bury us, not the other way 'round.
I, too took my gun to school. Even kept it in my dorm room in college, no issues with the admin.
I used to ride my bike over the hill to the next town and shoot chucks on the farms for the farmers. No one blinked seeing a kid go down the road with a scoped rifle on his back.
The following comes via VERY reputable source:
There was NO assault rifle used in the Sandy Hook school shooting. A first responder saw the shooter's mother's AR on the backseat of his car, and this was reported within the first few hours. After the 2nd day, no such story was ever reported, and it ballooned into an assault rifle being used. I have the greatest disdain for freshman Senator Blumenthal (CT) He was an arrogant liar when he was CT's Atty General, and he's doing what he does best in Washington now; Grandstanding. This classic case of the media following orders and reporting an agenda, rather than a news story reminds me of the night TWA 500 went down off Long Island NY. MANY independant witnesses reported seeing a ground-to-air light trail, such as a missle would have, but the next day, they were shut up.
