        We are all soft targets because of our outdated gun laws. When the second amendment was written rifles fired one shot before reloading. ONE SHOT ! Case Closed.

        When the 1st Amendment was written, the only source of media was spoken word or a Gutenberg press. Not computers, phones, tv, radio, etc. Case closed.

        you're confused. a prison is when bad guys are prevented from getting OUT in order to keep innocents on the outside protected from harm... whereas, security guards at schools prevent bad guys from getting IN in order to keep innocents on the inside from harm. kapeesh?

        No. You don't turn schools into armed forts. You get rid of the bloody AR-15s. Now. Right away. Enough of the hiding behind 2nd amendment. Time to bring suit against NRA. Time to vote out NRA -owned politicians.

        Sasha & Malia Obama have armed guards. Why do you want US school children to be sitting ducks in a building with big signs that announce that they are defenseless?

        So basically, we should just go back to some feudal type of system, we can all hunker down in our tribes and fear the outside world?

        Half the boys in my high school class had rifles in the back of their pickups, and every boy had a pocketknife. Nobody shot or stabbed anybody.

        I would have no problem with it. Anything to keep the kids safe. Hopefully you never have to be in this situation. You’ll feel differently.
