Friday night we were out to dinner with some of my family, including my parents. My parents were discussing that they were going out of town for two weeks leaving my 16 year old sister, 19 year old sister, and paralyzed grandfather home alone. These guys don't even have a home that all the locks work on. I brought up the safety issue and the discussion turned to firearms.
My mother attended East High School in SLC in the 1970s she brought up that in the basement of the school they had a rifle firing range! As a senior she took a target class and was actually quite good at shooting.
So, we had a rifle range IN A SCHOOL in the '70s. With all the laws concerning firearms and schools you would think that they were never allowed.
What changed between then and now that brought on the massive regulations surrounding school zones?
Could you imagine if there was a rifle range in Columbine? All those students in that class when SHTF, all trained marksmen, would they have made a difference in the end results?
Are they "Brady's" of this world SO UNFAMILIAR with firearms that they have become this big scary object?
