Common sense just took a huge step forward as the Kiona-Benton School Board voted Monday night to allow designated school administrators to carry guns on campus, providing an extra level of security for students and staff.
According to KNDU, School Superintendent Wade Haun said, “I think the big takeaways are the fact that our students will be better protected and our staff will be well-trained and we will continue to train other staff members as well in other ways to keep our kids safe.”
However, to paraphrase former Vice President Spiro Agnew, the news has gotten a thumbs-down from the nattering nannies of negativism. Said one critic: “There is ZERO reason for anyone to be carrying loaded guns at a school!”

“There is ZERO reason for anyone to be carrying loaded guns at a school!”
Except for the occasional frothing lunatic who decides that entering a school and massacring as many people as possible is just the cat's ass.
Or am I wrong....? |

TO REMEMBER |
| I do believe that where there is a choice only between cowardice and violence, I would advise violence. Thus when my eldest son asked me what he should have done had he been present when I was almost fatally assaulted in 1908 [by an Indian extremist opposed to Gandhi's agreement with Smuts], whether he should have run away and seen me killed or whether he should have used his physical force which he could and wanted to use, and defend me, I told him it was his duty to defend me even by using violence. Hence it was that I took part in the Boer War, the so-called Zulu Rebellion and [World War I]. Hence also do I advocate training in arms for those who believe in the method of violence. I would rather have India resort to arms in order to defend her honor than that she should in a cowardly manner become or remain a helpless witness to her own dishonor. — Mohandas K. Gandhi, Young India, August 11, 1920 from Fischer, Louis ed.,The Essential Gandhi, 1962 |
