[QUOTE="Pretzel, post: 372063, member: 12257"] Just my 2 cents on the matter: I'd say if hunting were a big part of their life, why not allow guns in the pic when representing the sport? Heck, a lot of the ROTC students participate in marksmanship events... wouldn't that be allowed? Maybe it's not considered a "school" activity though. 2 of the above shots I'd say were fine. The pose with the Desert Eagle, while I have nothing against the pic itself... perhaps it shouldn't be in the yearbook. No matter what you believe, that pic is VERY polarizing, and practically makes a political statement on behalf of the school whether that's the intent or not. Should the school choose to say "No guns in the yearbook" though... *shrug goes here* Let's just say it wouldn't hurt my feelings. It's just a yearbook, and if you want all your friends to have a pic of you with a gun, order some extra 3x5's from your photog and hand 'em out. :D Not an issue worth a fight, IMO. [/QUOTE]
