We had lockers in high school, but the lockers were small and were outdoors, so few students stored coats in them. I suppose nothing should surprise me about school security anymore.

About ten years ago my brother and I decided to escort our mother to mass for Mother's Day. Adjacent to the church was the elementary school that we had both attended from the mid 1970's to the early 1980's. The buildings looked more or less the same, but there were locked security gates on all the corridors that hadn't been there in those days.

I also remember that in those days nobody cared if I had my Boy Scout pocket knife with me at school, and if a high school student had a shotgun in his truck when parked on campus, people just assumed he was in the skeet club.

Then there were the songs we used to sing like:

Glory, glory, halleluiah
Teacher hit me with a ruler
A guy came to the door with a loaded .44
And teacher don't teach no more

If kids sang that nowadays, they'd be in juvenile detention for domestic terrorism. Back then they knew we were just letting off steam. It's a shame people don't trust each other anymore.
