This sure is a hot-button subject right now. I can remember back in high-school, we all had our rifles in the window racks during hunting season. We'd head for the hills right after school, cause there wasn't much daylight left to be running home and getting our rifles. Heck, one kid on my football team would bring his rifle with him to practice (the practice field was directly behind the school) and one day he saw a nice buck up on the hill, so the coach let him break from practice and shoot it right there in front of God and everybody. Coach figured he would be getting a good workout packing that thing down the hill anyway. LOL.

And this was only 15 years ago!
