I took a gun to school. Every day. Ammunition too. No one died. I lettered all 4 years on my school’s Varsity rifle team. We were mostly undefeated, but one of the private military academies relegated our rifle team to 2nd in my senior year. You sound hysterical, OP. |
So funny because it’s true! lol |
So did my dad. In the 50s. |
All the name calling and bullying here is why most of us avoid the gun lobby folks . It’s indicative of an underlying violent and abusive tendency |
My family hunts (on horseback, with dogs) but I don't want teachers publicly posting pictures of themselves with guns. This country has a problem with school shootings. No teachers should advertise their gun ownership. They can have as many private pics as they want, and what they do on their own time is their business. But no public gun persona. |
One of my Facebook profile pictures is of me holding a hunting rifle with a scope. Because I was hunting. So friggin what? |
The picture is inappropriate. It’s important to not show all online events you’re an educator. Drunk or sexually suggestive pics should be in private settings as well. It’s ok to have those pictures, have a gun, whatever; but kids are curious and will find anything public. Be more discreet. |
Agree, firmly. |
You’re really comparing hunting with sexually suggestive activities?? You’re a psycho. A gun is a tool. Like a shovel. Not like a stripper pole. |
DP. Actually it's far worse. A stripper pole never murdered a class of 6 year olds. A gun is a LETHAL WEAPON and the context is that of a SCHOOL EMPLOYEE. The USA is the only country in the world that makes a habit of getting its minors murdered by guns on school grounds. In that context, public photographs of school-associated individuals brandishing guns are unacceptable. It seems like a no-brainer to anyone with two neurons to rub together, but the fact it's generating some controversy even on the very liberal DCUM is exhibit A for why we still have a problem with gun violence, long after other countries simply enact drastic laws to saves their citizens' lives. |
+1. Alas, we are still arguing this nonsense. And to be fair, a stripper pole is also a work tool. If I were a stripper's accountant, that'd definitely be a tax-deductible work related expense. It's a tool - that won't kill a classroom of kids. |
? A permit to open carry isn’t needed. |
And? I don’t like guns but she has a right to own one and she also has the right to have social media. Stop looking up your kids teachers if you’re going to be this bothered. |
So? Guns are legal, you know. |
Yup. And I’ll bet you’re in the so-called “Free State”, amiright? |
