Subject: NRA wants armed guards at all school's.

What do you think of this?

Don't really care.

I'm an alt. Get at me.

I'm good with my .45, I don't need a guard outside.

That's right.

The students will have access to weapons? What?

I mean, if you're in a tough spot, just steal a fracking assault rifle, right?

That's a good use of school funding. It's not like math is important.

He said at least a Officer (armed) at every school. Elementary, Middle and High. Which I agree with. But Assault Rifles still need to be banned for citizens.

If I ever get AIDS, I'm going to sleep with another AIDS person so my AIDS cancel each other out, or I'm going to make the AIDS I already have worse.

Notice how he's not smart enough to form his own opinion so he piggybacks on someone else's.

Good, add in a lot of background checks and we're good

Studies show that men think about sex every 7 seconds. I do my best to eat hotdogs in under 6, just so things don't get weird.

Stupidity at its finest.

Schools have had to make such deep budget cuts that nearly all non-essential programs have been cut. When administrators are deciding which language can be cut, or if athletics or drama should go, why should we be adding further expense to the budgets?

Now, most of you will picture that we will have professional looking police officer looking guards. Yeah, how well THAT worked for the TSA. And TSA had a better budget than what the schools could afford. Think about that.

This is the most insanely idiotic ploy to sell more guns than any I have heard about in recent memory.

Obviously they'll budget accordingly. Learn basic logic.
NRA said they'll help pay. It wouldn't be solely schools just paying.

Well, here we are. I guess that it was destined to come to this.

I think that may be an innaccurate paraphrasing.

If I am not mistaken, the idea is that if/when a responsible and law abiding adult who has taken the time and gone through the training, testing, background checks and application process in order to legally CCW, that schools (and other "gun free zones" which have been demonstrated to actually be "defenseless victims zones, any mass murderer will have many minutes before anyone who is equipped to stop the rampage will be able to arrive and intervene") allow those legal and law-abiding holders of CCW to choose whether or not that can/will carry onto the site.

Not the same as "lets put up guard towers, barbed wire and armed guards at schools". Actually, since I was in school, the first two steps have become commonplace. Schools are FAR less open and locked down than when I was a student. I remember in high-school, plenty of trucks in the parking lot (student and staff) with gun racks in the rear-window that had shotguns/rifles in them, depending on what was in season. We didn't have "gun free zones" and we didn't have mass shootings either.

Wouldn't it come under the defence budget?

Well that's a terrible idea, seems like something you would see in Uganda.

I don't always ban people but when I do I laugh uncontrollably...that's if I was a Forum Ninja.

Truth is a matter of perception.

I think it's a good idea, they need to have guards. At my school there is a sheriffs deputy that works there, he has a tazer and a pistol(with rubber bullets).

When my grandpa went to middle school they had a gun club. They were able to bring their rifles with them to school.(Just like your school.) They even had a shooting range in the basement.

its one of the possibilities that makes shootings happen, but it all falls down to mental illness

So does being alive, should we ban being alive?

No frack, but do you honestly think having guns at a school is a good idea? Students can just disarm a guard or steal a gun and go rampage.

My dad recalls similar instances. I always find it amazing how people are so quick to blame a gun for violence; if guns were/are the cause then why is it only recently that violence using guns is so prevalent?
