Things you did in high school that would absolutely get someone arrested today?

One we did all the time that I’ve seen on here often is bringing guns to school to show to buddies or to a teacher. Also carried a pocket knife every day. I recall some kids carrying a Bowie knife on their belt.
The craziest thing was our chemistry teacher teaching us to build a moonshine still in the lab with burners, glass piping, beakers and flasks. Once we got it built, he brought in some “beer” that he had made at home (gave us all a sheet of paper with the recipe) and we distilled it. As you can imagine, when he got called to the office while we were distilling, we skimmed a lot of the production. Our History class the next period was interesting.
Would you be surprised to learn that I went to high school in the mountains of rural NE Alabama?

played dodgeball at PE with those 4 square balls that could do some damage. Freshman year we had PE at the same time as the varsity baseball team and had to go against them. Ace pitcher hit my buddy in the face so hard it knocked a couple teeth out. PE teacher would be in a world of shite nowadays for allowing, encouraging, and laughing about it

Tossed an MP5-SD5 BB gun (Japanese BB guns were made of metal, nearly the same weight as real, and otherwise indistinguishable from the real thing) over a fence at a naval base in Japan, with the intent to enter through the gate and go pick it up.
Of course, the crayon eaters found it before we got there. It just got confiscated, and probably became a toy in someone's off base apartment, I don't even remember them telling my parents. Nowadays, we'd have probably had to move back to CONUS.

I went to school in very rural LA in the 90s.
I once brought a shotgun to school for a skit in class. Carried it around all day.
No one cared.
This was after Columbine too.

Took a shite on the skylights as a prank.

Went to Catholic school, so hopefully the nuns would go to jail for beating the shite out of students with a ruler today.

Hell some of the stuff we did in high school we should have got arrested for back then.

A few years ago at my kids’ high school, four guys decided for their Senior Prank to take one of their dad’s spreader trucks filled with chicken crap and drive it all over campus spreading chicken shite everywhere. The EPA had to come in and do a multi-day cleanup. All four got arrested.

We used to steal street and stop signs, buy gunpowder from the store and make homemade bombs, and yellow "good morning fgts" as we passed a house that had 2 homos in it.
We threw big high school parties with bands and kegs at one of the city parks. Cops never cared and everything was OK until one weekend some weirdo from Arkansas started shooting a gun. After that, the cops wouldn't let us go past midnight.
My good friend's family member was the Governor of Missouri and we would go party on his houseboat at Lake of the Ozarks. Everyone knew who his family was, so no one ever batted an eye.

We had a club called "Interact" which had a brutal traditional initiation.

Along with a few buddies, I climbed up onto the "New Bridge" and walked all the way across to Port Allen and back using the catwalk underneath the roadbed. We actually did that a few times, the last time being when we were drunk and decided to take the ladder up the side where we could be seen by people driving across the bridge. We hauled arse back to the EBR side and saw police cars on the bridge with their lights flashing as we got in the car and left.

Tipping port-o-johns on the weekend was pretty routine for us. Now that I routinely visit construction sites, I am a firm believer that it is a crime deserving of life without parole.

Coitus with a teacher.

Shotgun in my backseat at school, and had a pocket knife
Throwing eggs at somebody's house or spreading hot garbage in the yard
Stealing election signs all over town then putting them all in the yard of your enemy
pouring fertilizer in the shape of a cock and balls or cuss words in somebody's yard.
Making potato guns and sparkler bombs
O.P.P. (Other People's Pools) - We would ride around the neighborhood with 4 - 5 guys in the back of a pickup truck after midnight, looking for signs of a swimming pool in the back of someone's yard. The driver would park on the street, everyone would jump out, climb the fence, knock out a couple cannonballs, then run back to the truck about the time that the lights started coming on, and haul arse away. Had to pay close attention and look for signs of a dog as well while scoping out your target
Probably could have gotten arrested for these things back then too, but c'est la vie. Giving a kid a super wedgie in school could probably get you thrown in Juvie today.
