A Mt. Lebanon school board member, who opposed a recent policy on weapons, wants to see a policy that bans guns entirely from the school district, even if that means eliminating the high school rifle team.
The school board on Monday approved by an 8-1 vote a new weapons policy, which prohibits weapons and guns on campus, with a few exceptions. Board members Michael Riemer, Elaine Cappucci, Alfonso Frioni, Sarah Olbrich, Lawrence Lebowitz, Hugh Beal, Aviva Diamond and Stephen Strotmeyer voted for the policy. William Cooper voted no.
But Mr. Cooper, who cast the lone dissenting vote, said “I agree with 98 percent of the policy.” But he said he does not believe “there is any place for guns in a high school.” |

| Be sure to teach them well on the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. You are doing that, right? |

TO REMEMBER |
| No kingdom can be secured otherwise than by arming the people. The possession of arms is the distinction between a freeman and a slave. He, who has nothing, and who himself belongs to another, must be defended by him, whose property he is, and needs no arms. But he, who thinks he is his own master, and has what he can call his own, ought to have arms to defend himself, and what he possesses; else he lives precariously, and at discretion. — James Burgh, Political Disquisitions: Or, an Enquiry into Public Errors, Defects, and Abuses [London, 1774-1775]. |
