They lined teachers up against
the wall facing it. It was a "drill" with teachers unaware of either
the drill or who the shooters were? Is 1/2 of our nation certifiably
insane? I guess the school board sanctioning of this crackpot idea is
to show how much teachers need to carry guns. Just how would that work
in a room full of screaming frightened children facing live ammunition
of terrorists?
New Zealand's response to 50 people
slaughtered by a right wing Trump-influenced terrorist was to make
assault weapons, AK 15s and the like, extended ammunition magazines
illegal. Why does sanity exist in this small nation and insanity rules
in a nation with over 350 million people and over 300,000,000 guns?
Law
enforcement and the military should be the only ones to carry assault
type weapons. If it were up to me I would love to repeal the Second
Amendment. Fat chance. Think about it when our Founders wrote the
second amendment into the Constitution they were thinking of 18th
century muskets that only kings possessed. They were not thinking of
modern-day military rapid fire assault weapons with extended magazines in a democratic nation.
