When Kids Shoot Kids: A Christian Perspective on School Shootings
“In 2000, there were 31 school shooting events nationwide—which was a fairly average year for the time period. In 2020, there were 116– In 2021, 257—in 2022, 308—in 2023, 349—and so far in 2024 there have been 325 shooting incidents in elementary, junior high, and high schools across our nation.” - P&D

firearms were definitely more available to kids when I was younger. When I was younger, in rural Wisconsin during deer hunting season, it was not uncommon (nor against the law) to have your hunting rifles in a gun rack inside of the cabin of your truck. The school parking lot was full of kids trucks with hunting rifles visibly showing.
With that said, we live in a different world. We have always had firearms around our house, always stored in cases and unloaded. In the last few years, I have kept my firearms secured in a large safe where I have secured the code.
