I told my sixth period class that the state Senate Education Committee voted 9 to 3 to allow teachers to have guns; uproarious laughter ensued. Gasping, one student asked, "So wait, Señorita, you're going to get a gun?" I replied, "I sure am! How's that for incentive to study!" My students spent the next 10 minutes giggling and coming up with possible scenarios: Mr. S shoots off a toe every time you say "um" during a presentation, Señorita asks Apoorva to be quiet for the last time, the lunch bunch of room 207 easily smashes Señorita's particle board desk, steals the gun and plays Russian roulette for french fries. We giggled at the absurdity of it all.

TO REMEMBER |
| [The American Colonies were] all democratic governments, where the power is in the hands of the people and where there is not the least difficulty or jealousy about putting arms into the hands of every man in the country. [European countries should not] be ignorant of the strength and the force of such a form of government and how strenuously and almost wonderfully people living under one have sometimes exerted themselves in defence of their rights and liberties and how fatally it has ended with many a man and many a state who have entered into quarrels, wars and contests with them. — George Mason, "Remarks on Annual Elections for the Fairfax Independent Company" in The Papers of George Mason, 1725-1792, ed Robert A. Rutland (Chapel Hill, 1970). |
