at 18 you should know right from wrong no you dont have the right to buy a gun or use if in any manner. If you dont have anythng to hide in your locker then a warrentless search should be ok and if you do have something top hide then i agree that a warrantless search is good if you want to harm yourself whatever but dont harm other people that may be at the wrong place at the wrong time. when you get out of school then you have thhe right to buy a gun at 21 use it and pay for it if you mess up and the right to free speech. Warrantless searches ok by me

No because your parents can help you learn gun safety and take away the curiosity factor about guns. I had a gun in my closet at home from 3rd grade on and always knew never to bring it out or even touch it without permission.
We would go hunting and then come home and clean the guns and put them up. Guess I'm just lucky to have survived such a horrible upbringing, eh?
School rights are of course less because of safety concerns. The school setting has a decreased expectation of privacy due to the whole building belonging to the school district and being used by 100s of kids.

Yes it is illegal. When you turn 18 then you should be able to decide but any age under that is too young. Guns are dangerous enough in the hands of adults. Kids don't need to have them.

well the locker search at your school is different, cuz its not like its actually the kids locker, its school property, just like if you rent a house and the owner wants the cops to search it, the occupant cant refuse demanding they have a warrant, in that case they dont need one, cuz the owner gave them permission

No, they should however be TAUGHT to use it SAFELY. As many things it has the potential to be deadly. Education is a key to a lot of our cultural woes. Another large trouble is respect/self-respect.
