In Jr high I was a member of the rifle club. And on a certain day I would walk to school with my match target 22 LR to shoot that evening at the school range. To get to the school I would have to walk through the middle of town toting my rifle in a case. The ammo was supplied by the school for the practice. The rifle was stored in my locker in the hallway until the evening practice. This was in Michigan in the early 60s. No one gave it a second thought. Gun safety was practiced at the shoot. I think I was about 13 or or 14.
People actually respected human life back then, so the idea of killing another person was limited to a VERY small percent of the population. If the polls are true now, more than half the U.S. believes killing other innocent humans (the unborn) is ok.

Sad but probably true…
