Yeah, it would have been much better if the kid understood enough to have taken bullets that went with the gun to school.[/b]
I'd prefer well trained teachers who had a mind to go through training.
I'm not at all happy with the idea of kids taking guns to school with the proper
bullets in the guns.

why not? guns don't kill people - neither do bullets, it's people that kill people! and what's more, if a child wants to kill someone they'll find some other way of killing them. we just need to make sure parents bring up their children responsibly so they can be trusted to have guns in schools and defend themselves against would be psychopaths.




I so wish there was a way to discretely indicate only to those who aren\'t gun fanatics that I have a reason for posting this response instead of giving the game away by typing this - no I\m not being serious :/

Evidently RJH is. Do you really think it wise to allow those with the mentality of an RJH to have access to weapons designed to greatly increase the ability to inflict harm?

Let me see if I understand you correctly. In your mind it is sensible to increase the number of private citizens carrying weapons designed to increase the ability to inflict harm in order to mitigate the harm done by private citizens carrying weapons designed to increase the ability to inflict harm?

You may no doubt about it, I'd prefer to know that a crazy suicidal gunman
whose only goal in life is to kill as many little kids as he can find will not walk
through my kid's school completely unimpeded except by brave teachers who
throw their bodies in harm way with nothing but harsh lauage and skin and
bones.

[/b]I'd prefer well trained honest law bidding people carrying guns yes, in a world
where any nut job with or without the law allowing it can get a gun and kill
as many as they can. It again goes back to who is doing the killing, it isn't
the teacher who would if s/he had to, throw themselves between the gunman
and the kids to save the kids. That person I'd like have training and given the
chance to defend themselves and my kids! I'm not worried about them, it is
the wacko who doesn't care I worry about.

I refuse to agree with you, because I do not agree with you, but that does not
make me insult your posts as you did mine.

Did it ever occur to you that history has shown that a subset of teachers are "nut job(s)"?

Did it ever occur to you that part of the problem is identifying the "nut job(s)" from the "honest law abiding people"? Do you have a foolproof way of doing this? Do you have a foolproof way of making sure that "nut job(s)" don't get access to guns owned by "honest law abiding people"?

Did it ever occur to you that if guns were removed from society, that "nut job(s)" wouldn't be able to get a gun?

what a piece of nonsense, violence foments violence, is the indiscriminate killing of six
teachers and twenty little children worth your so called right to bear arms, i don't
think so. Your constitution needs to change.
