It has to be the times we live in...
When I went to school, we drove our trucks with a rifle rack and either a shotgun or a lever action 30-30 in the rack. No one ever got shot. Ever.
You silly children just don't know how to resolve conflicts.
I was just thinking this same thing this morning. Kids graduating must be like, cool, the freshmen was going to snap in a year anyway...or, whew, I have 30% better chance of survival!
