"More guns in the schools."? There are NO guns in the vast majority of schools, you idiots, except infrequently in the hands of loony toon shooters, which you CANNOT prevent. You can train those who are authorized to carry. You CAN'T stop loony toons, except at the point of their attack.
Opposition is irrational. The bottom line is that unless there are people immediately present to take down an active shooter, kids will be injured and killed. There simply is no argument that can negate that reality.
Nobody wants to force people to be armed and trained to stand duty. But instead of being obstinate and blindered, these numbskulls should stand aside and let those who are willing, do so. |

TO REMEMBER |
| After having thus successively taken each member of the community in its powerful grasp and fashioned him at will, the supreme power then extends its arm over the whole community. It covers the surface of society with a network of small, complicated rules, minute and uniform, through which the most original minds and the most energetic characters cannot penetrate, to rise above the crowd. The will of man is not shattered, but softened, bent, and guided; men seldom forced by it to act, but they are constantly restrained from acting. Such a power does not destroy, but it prevents existence; it does not tyrannize, but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupefies a people, till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd. — Alexis de Tocqueville |
