    I remember when our FFA class raise chickens in a coup in the school parking lot. When they got big enough, we cleaned them, and sold them thru the local grocery stores to make money.

    WE WERE ALL ASKED TO BRING KNIVES TO SCHOOL TO DRESS AND CUT UP THE CHICKENS.

    How many radical liberals just fainted dead away reading that?????

    They had cool royal blue Jackets too... Still a big thing here today... They raise a ton of money for charities and such... You know good old Merikan boys and girls learning hard work, morals and community charity!

    God love um!

    AND------------------I just remembered I have a small pocket knife my 3rd grade teacher gave me for Christmas. That would have been in 1946.

    BTW I never stabbed anyone or turned out to be an axe murderer.

    I'm surprised some children are even allowed to have a sharp pencil

    Only real patriots bring knives to school and kill chickens?

    FYI chickens are food. We sold the chickens at the local grocery stores and used the money for charity.

    At that age, I was hunting, killing and field dressing my own deer and ducks ... what you're talking about is light-weight stuff - and you guys consider me a liberal ...
    color me unimpressed with your braggadocio.

    That is good; I have no problem with that.
    I find it hard to understand your logic that this somehow makes liberals bad why you make unfounded assumptions about liberals

    Our local catch-all high school used to have a gun range under it for ROTC.

    Back in 1950 give or take in small towns in Nebr, high school kids came to school in their pickup with guns on the rack in the back window. Likey as not so did most of the male teachers and the principal.

    Nebraska was also segregated in the 1950's. Things change. Adapt, or be left behind.

    Unfortunately your education was lacking as it's CHICKEN COOP not COUP, unless they were overthrowing other chickens.
