Michelle Simons was traveling with her husband to Katie, Texas, when they saw a Boyert Shooting Center gun store sign that read, “From 13 to 18 on August, the sale was at the beginning of the school year.” Discounts up to 50% for firearms. "

“It was so terrifying: 'Did I really see this?'” Simons said.

Simons said that she thought such an advertisement was completely inappropriate, especially after the mass shootings in El Paso (Texas) and Dayton (Ohio).

Her husband, who chose not to call himself, works as a teacher, he said that in his school district active training is being conducted on actions during the shooting.

“In the current climate and culture where we have school shootings and mass shootings all the time, it's a poor approach to advertising,” he said.

The Boyert Shooting Center said: “We have customers who are teachers, and we can thank them by offering discounts on firearms and accessories.”

“Many Texans are not aware of this, but colleges and school teachers in some districts are now allowing them to carry guns without displaying them,” the statement said.
