And for generations, kids grew up playing with guns because they idolized their fathers, who understood guns, had served the nation, fought in her wars, put down tyrannies with their guns, and took their kids hunting. Somehow, the vast majority of those kids turned out OK, without any help from a nanny state.

When I was in high school, kids had .22 rifles or .410 shotguns in the trunks of their cars, and nobody thought anything about it. It was NORMAL. It was shortly after then that the word "gay" stopped meaning "gay," and started meaning "gay." Atlas Shrugged, anybody?

The kid did not answer truthfully because some adult bullies ganged up on him and he was afraid. He did what any kid would have done: denied the charges. Any adult who thinks that a gun shaped piece of pizza is dangerous is a few bricks shy of a load. The very fact that such a person is in a position of responsibility in a school system is proof positive that the schools have all gone to hades. We are doomed as a nation if these are the people who are [strike]educating[/strike] indoctrinating our kids.

I doubt he thinks a gun shaped piece of pizza is dangerous, or for that matter, that any of these wacky liberals making or enforcing such policies do. Their behavior is part of a deliberate demonization process --the intention is to make guns seem scary and dangerous to children by association.
