The comparison in the title is fatuous and demagogic.
First, the "our guns v. our children" juxtaposition, to be accurate, should read "our liberty v. our children", but even then it crosses the line into Red Queen-ville.
There is no adversarial relationship between the two. It isn't "either or", it is "both".

If the liberals were actually concerned with the childrens' welfare, they would be clamoring to get rid of the gun prohibition zones in the schools and allow anyone with a carry license to have a gun in school. If the teachers and administrators were armed, we would see a drastic reduction in these mass killings.
As it stands now, there is nothing to stop these deranged killers in less than 10-15 minutes during which time they can do a lot of carnage.
Unfortunately, they are so focused on vilifying guns that they will not allow the only effective means of stopping these events. |

TO REMEMBER |
| By calling attention to a well-regulated militia for the security of the Nation, and the right of each citizen to keep and bear arms, our Founding Fathers recognized the essentially civilian nature of our economy. Although it is extremely unlikely that the fears of governmental tyranny, which gave rise to the second amendment, will ever be a major danger to our Nation, the amendment still remains an important declaration of our basic military-civilian relationships, in which every citizen must be ready to participate in the defense of the country. For that reason I believe the second amendment will always be important. --JOHN F. KENNEDY |
