It shows how much the feelings about guns have changed over the past few decades. My dad used to bring his .22 caliber rifle along with ammunition to school everyday so that he could go hunting afterwards. He'd just carry it into school and put it in his locker. Not too many years ago I always had a knife with me when I went to school and in the parking lot almost every pickup had at least one shotgun in the back window. Supposedly there were rules against that, but nobody cared. Now we have students getting in trouble with the police for bringing pellet guns and knives to school.
