I think I now realize the subconscious reason why, even as a leftist, I'm very pro-gun, its that distrust of my parents, and thus distrust of school admin, which then also transferred into the distrust of authority in general.

I hate how (USA) democrats delegated so-called "gun control" to the cops having the discretion to deny you a gun permit for self defence, not even a judge, but a fucking cop, and the same cops would intentionally never show up in time to help you against a home invasion. (see: "may issue" gun laws in the US, which has since 2022 been ruled unconstitutional, ironically I agree with the far-right dipshits in SCOTUS on this specific issue)
