Exactly, parents feel schools and school events should.be safe places. Sadly this one wasn't.

Who the eff even brings and carries a weapon to a sporting event?  I never knew anyone who did such a thing.  It's not even a difficult case of who is right and who is wrong.

I know growing up, guys had hunting rifles in their gun racks in trucks and even carried pocket knives but none of them ever even thought of bringing a weapon into a sporting event or even into school.

To be fair, back then it was rare to have 5,10, 30, people jump you.

Back in the day kids grew up with Hollywood cowboy ethics, meet in the street at high noon and settle things like men.

Now a long of folks grew up with professional wrestling ethics,  sneak up behind someone and hit them with a chair, have a few of your buddies help beat them down.

Unless you went off campus, if you got into a fight at school, even in the hallway before class, the teachers always broke it up before too long.  I got into a fight one time in the locker room before gym.  Some kid put me in a choke hold from behind, he had his face right my shoulder and I jacked him with my fist with my arm opposite where his face was on my shoulder.  That didn't even last long.  As I got older, the worst stuff happened outside of school, usually on the weekends.

Kids get in fights sometimes.  It's part of life and growing up.  If you are carrying a weapon to a fist fight, you are just asking to ruin your life.

Now days you can't just have a scrap, cops show up and you get arrested.  It's past silly.

We got a late start.
