Congratulations! Now put that shit back on! We are going to war!

I remember growing up having my 12 gauge shotgun and 7MM rifle in the gun rack of my truck. Nothing chambered but they were loaded with extra ammo in the glove box. Sometimes we’d go hunting before or after school so we just kept the stuff with us. Unlocked, keys left in the ignition. To top it off I was legally driving to school and work at 14 with my school permit so I wasn’t even 16 yet.

I really miss the society I grew up knowing, things are so fucked these days.

"you'll get a higher-paying career if you get a degree"

"counterpoint, you won't if you are murdered while trying"

"well yeah but-"

Well that's just a statistical certainty

And malls, and churches, and hotels...

...the streets, by cops and ICE and republicans.

And your home when you have an argument about guns...

When I was in high school in the 80's, a kid got removed from school for bringing an axe in to kill people with.

Simpler times.

My school safety officer advised me of bringing a bomb to school... It was just an empty air tank for my paintball gun.

Meanwhile, in the early mid '90s, I brought a backpack full of self made blasting caps, det cord, and a detonator to high school and got off with an ISS for a week. Admittedly, it was unintentional, and I wasn't trying to kill anyone.

[–] ThunderQueen@lemmy.world 2 points 2 hours ago

One time there were fire crackers on the sidwalk near where me and some other students were smoking and when admin came to break us up they found them and gave us all ISS for 3 days because nobody knew whose they were

I think I'd rather just keep mine on.

We need more measles cases so that school shootings make up a smaller proportion of childhood deaths

shish mish

My favorite southern Slavic word! It means “bat” and it’s just darn adorable.

[–] AffineConnection@lemmy.world 4 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

There was a shooting at my old high school. My sister was there at the time.

[–] bleistift2@sopuli.xyz 8 points 4 hours ago (2 children)

Was she also there after the time?

[–] AffineConnection@lemmy.world 3 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

It was during her senior year.

'front towards enemy'... which way to the principal's office again? You there, freshman, I need suppressive fire! You have sleight of hand, yeah?

[–] GreenKnight23@lemmy.world 3 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

she was there, and there, and some over there too.

[–] NABDad@lemmy.world 2 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

Damnit, I didn't need another reason to go straight to hell, and then you made me laugh at that.

[–] bleistift2@sopuli.xyz 3 points 3 hours ago

Just befriend a paramedic or a firefighter or some other of the sort that works next to a train line. You’ll hear that joke quite often and get used to it.

[–] TwilitSky@lemmy.world 7 points 4 hours ago

I remember graduating school in the 90's and thinking "Thank God I don't have to die here."
