“How to stop masked men claiming to be ‘ICE Agents’ from kidnapping children”
We need the other type of school shooters, the type that do the inverse and protect children.
Sniper towers. All over town. Rooftop emplacements “You’re kind ain’t welcome here”. They want to go back in time, remind ICE what that can be like. Warning shots only though, of course. Unless they don’t back off.
They just stabbed the barrel so all bullets get cut in two. Makes school shootings 100% more ammo efficient.
I carried a pocket knife almost everyday in high school and never once had a problem. If you aren’t waving it around, threatening people, or overall being an idiot most people never even notice.
Yeah, especially 16-18 when I was working, I usually always had a pocket knife or multi tool on me because they would come in handy. That said, we didn’t have metal detectors or strange prison like schools like we do now apparently.
I carried my Schrade Switch-It every day in the little seam pocket of my carpenter’s jeans (as was the style at the time) and the only flak I ever caught for it was one day the principal spotting it and telling me he didn’t want to see me with my “pager” at school anymore.
I told him he had my scout’s honor that he would never see me with a pager so long as I lived. Yes, this sailed right over his head. I still didn’t get into trouble, though, which is surprising given the sheer variety of other stupid and highly spurious things that somehow got me in trouble in school.
The closest i came to getting caught is in biology i etched some notches into a toothpick to work an experiment easier. Another student asked how i altered the toothpick, i offered him my knife and he said something along the lines of “just notch mine and i won’t tell anyone what I saw”.
telling me he didn’t want to see me with my “pager” at school anymore.
Oh sir it’s not a pager… it’s a vibrator
I knew a kid who did this. Some random kid saw and reported it. His dad was the head janitor of the high school, he helped his dad, was on the payroll so actually was working for the school district himself part-time. He still almost got expelled, managed to only get a week of suspension.
It does depend on the district and general vibe of the school. A big city school may have a different reaction than a rural one. Mine had a mix of city kids and country kids as the school was on the edge of the city. Our school also offered an outdoor education program that included things like fire starting and canoe tripping so students enrolled in that would have a valid excuse to have a knife on them. The student’s history of getting into trouble and reaction to getting caught is also a likely factor.
Depends when and where you grew up, probably. We had to pass through metal detectors every day and attempting to bring a concealed weapon would have been pretty dumb.
Yes these days it may have been different. We barely had camera coverage. For one of my birthdays a friend gifted me an 8" hunting knife in the stairwell at school. I thanked him but did ask to maybe at least wait til the end of the day or a weekend next time cause that knife is harder to justify carrying than a folding blade.
Times, they have changed. I was the same, as were most of the people I went to school with. Pocket knifes are just handy, I still carry one most of the time.
Real pro tip, you can glue a crayon sharpener AND a pencil sharpener to the stalk. You can also roll up a cheat sheet and put it in the barrel as people tend to not look in there.
Corn stalk or girlfriend stalk?
This isn’t well timed with what happened in Canada sadly
“IS THAT A VERTICAL FOREGRIP!?”
-ATF probably
In my last year of high school the following oppressive regulations were imposed: no knives over 3 1/2", no animals guns or smoking in the building. Somehow this did not prevent me from getting high in the library with a kitten and revolver most days
At least you didn’t break the knife size rule.
Did briefly consider getting a bigger knife on pure anti-authoritarian principle, but really liked the one I had
I was in HS in a different era I generally had a pocket knife on me and a gun in the car for most of my time in there
This is a bad idea. The placement of the angled foregrip on that AR makes me think it’s a pistol-length upper. This knife handle is functioning as a vertical foregrip, which is a felony without the proper tax stamp. If you bring this knife to school, you’re going to be charged with a felony.
The saying is “don’t bring a knife to a gun fight”, but I think this probably gets a pass
