Pop. Pop. Pop. At the Minnesota high school trap-shooting championship, more than 8,000 students from some 300 schools gathered in June to blast flying orange discs out of the sky.

This is awesome! I remember when we used to have guns in the back window while at school....

We have a county shooting sports club for kids. And our 4H and Boy Scouts still teach gun safety and shooting.

That's cool. We had a rifle club in high school, with the range in the basement. We shot 2 nights a week. Guess what? Not one school shooting.

Grew up on a 40 acre farm in the 50's......never had a thought about safety back then. Gun racks all over at school and everywhere. Crooks and gang bangers would have had real short life spans back in the day.......

Most schools where I live also have industrial arts labs. you could easily cut a hand off or slit your wrist on a tables saw but if used properly accidents are rare.
