As somebody on the younger side of things...I 100% agree with this.
Schools are absolutely crazy with rules nowadays. Shoot, I visited a school on the east coast and it was a full metal detector pat-down just to get in the door. Had to take my belt off, empty pockets, damn near had to take my shoes off. Just to see my cousin's graduation. But I walked through my state's Capitol building and through all of the government offices with no security checks at all.
Now my school is a tad more laid back than some. Most, if not all, of the students in the high school either carry a knife or pepper spray. There's been times where I've come up to school during the summer after squirrel hunting or a day at the range and I've had to park up the street. Admin asks why? I can't park next to a school with a gun in my car. I've carried benadryl, nasal decongestant and tylenol in my backpack with no problems.
There's kids in the next town over who are being told they cannot bring their lunch to school any more because they had peanut butter on their sandwich. They don't want anybody with a peanut allergy to have an emergency.
