Just a note before bedtime...

I am starting to feed on Starship Troopers, again, and before I took up the book I browsed on the old, old high school year books, and looked at the rifle teams and clubs - and didn't see any punks and future denizens of the prisons system. Wonder why? Those young men and women were handling rifles in school, after class and in conjunction with other activities, sports and learning. They did all right in the rest of their lives, too, college good jobs, professions, families and community service . Very successful, so why can't we have guns in schools now? All chidren must be left behind?
