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 |
| "Some people think that the Second Amendment is an outdated relic of an earlier time. Doubtless some also think that constitutional protections of other rights are outdated relics of earlier times. We The People own those rights regardless, unless and until We The People repeal them. For those who believe it to be outdated, the Second Amendment provides a good test of whether their allegiance is really to the Constitution of the United States, or only to their preferences in public policies and audiences. The Constitution is law, not vague aspirations, and we are obligated to protect, defend, and apply it. If the Second Amendment were truly an outdated relic, the Constitution provides a method for repeal. The Constitution does not furnish the federal courts with an eraser." --9th Circuit Court Judge Andrew Kleinfeld, dissenting opinion in which the court refused to rehear the case while citing deeply flawed anti-Second Amendment nonsense (Nordyke v. King; opinion filed April 5, 2004) |
