Originally posted by Littlejoe View PostSorry, but I disagree. I think overall the parents feel their kids are safer with TRAINED, responsible staff armed for such an emergency. No gun zones are just free killing fields...there's are reason their called a soft target. Many communities in Texas have hired SRO's or offduty policemen to patrol the hallways. I'm friends with one. He's ex-military, and 20+ year veteran of the force. Rock solid guy...and he loves the kids and would die to protect them.The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

The ultimate weakness of violence is that it is a descending spiral begetting the very thing it seeks to destroy...returning violence for violence multiplies violence, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that. Martin Luther King
I would unite with anybody to do right and with nobody to do wrong. Frederick Douglas

Eventually...inevitably...Americans will tire of the claim that the epidemic level of gun deaths in the U.S. has nothing to do with guns. Perhaps that tide is already turning. Perhaps it will take another few hundred thousand deaths. But eventually, we will become fed up with seeing our children, spouses, and other loved ones gunned down at the rate of over 100 per day....Last edited by carpedm9587; 02-17-2018, 03:48 PM.The ultimate weakness of violence is that it is a descending spiral begetting the very thing it seeks to destroy...returning violence for violence multiplies violence, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars.
