In reply to the discussion: I am old enough to remember when kids were allowed to actually bring guns to school [View all]ieoeja
(9,748 posts)Instead of arguing with people who make that claim, my response has always been, "doesn't matter, you can't kill a teenager just because he knocks your ass down."
And people, even DUers, actually argue that Z had that right.
I was Right To Keep even to the point of being an NRA member before I discovered they were conspiracy theorist nutjobs and extreme Rightist on issues not even related to firearms.
I was okay on Right To Keep and Bear.
But then they took the argument to Right To Keep, Bear and Kill. That shit is just nucking futs.
The last 20 years of unchallenged pro-gun propaganda has created a climate in which fathers are instructing their children that it is perfectly acceptable to shoot someone if they hit you. Fights in school are pretty commonplace. Combine the two and .... that is why they should not be allowed to carry firearms to school anymore.
