That should discourage some nutbag shooter.
They always look for the sheep with no defense.

Dig it. :yep:

IIRC
 

The only campus of higher learning to be shot up by nutbag/s
was in Ohio. And those shooters were military.:-?

Now your hitting me where I hurt!
:haha:

There were kids killed at a college in Virginia too. Wonder how long it will take to hear the news when they have a shoot out at some frat party.

Are you kidding? It'd be on the news within minutes. "If it bleeds it leads".

Politics, religion and gun control. :03:

Teachers and personnel of all kind carrying guns will have to really care, properly wear and stow it, so that no kid can (ab)use it, not even accidentally.

I do not think the militarisation of civilian life is a useful idea to fight the causes of those shootings, or terrorism. It may be able to deal with the symptoms, but not the cause. It just raises the general threat level, and makes people nervous.
"How's your son in the kindergarten doing?"
"Oh he's safe the kindergarten teacher carries an unconcealed gun, and the janitor has a submachine gun."

A school where all are carrying guns, and openly. Why do people like this so much :hmmm:

Wouldn't it be easier to just have manned security checkpoints that everyone has to pass through with metal detectors. I know it would be a hassle to get through and take longer to get to class but still....

I think it is not a risk of spread to other states and with this bill is ill, and extremely guns fixed.

Maybe they will follow Walmart Stores in Texas and ask for security to check for licenses of the open carries :haha:

Gun rights advocates are having a field day.


Weapon focus.
Look it up.


Dumbest thing i've seen for a while on the net:

Why the exaggeration? "Some" or "a few" not provide enough impact?

This isn't just a one room school house. We're talking about institutions that cover many city blocks. They'd have to build a wall around the entire campus at every school, lock every door and secure every parking lot, athletic field anbd swimming pool then hire guards and spend millions on metal detectors.

The picture below would give you the scale of the project you're suggesting and this is just one campus.

America is a different world to Europe, you've got to remember that. There's that saying that 'The only thing stopping a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun.' Of course, what happens when two good guys with a gun mistake the other for a bad guy is less clear, but they'll work it all out eventually.
