Parry McCluer High School - at least for now - has declared that they will not bend to the Almighty PC God and remove the guns from its mascot. It currently uses a mascot that is a take off Yosemite Sam and despite others demands that the guns are offensive, 50 years of tradition trumps those whiny cries.
