When Will They Get It?

So, the country gets a wave of school shootings, and the response? Why, teach kids to fight back, of course. Heaven forbid we question why as a society we insist so strongly on allowing handguns and assualt weapons. The influence of the gun lobby in this country astonishes me. And it's all based on very questionable interpretation of the second amendment. Not like that really matters anymore, given that Bush thinks of the Constitution as "just a goddamned piece of paper!" George, please... language. You're supposed to convince people you're a Christian!

I thought New York would have thoroughly reworked your sensibilities with regards to language by this point. "Goddamn" is practically the fourth part of subject-verb-object out there.

To quote a line from Ghostbusters that I always found amusing "Being miserable and treating other people like dirt is every New Yorker's God-given right." A Bronx theology I guess.

Oops...on topic...

I saw that news article too. As stupid as this is (should we start arming students as well?), I've seen some other news reports parents that some aren't that happy with the plan. Though, "some" is alarming.

Of course, let's not think at all about how to prevent such attacks by identfying warning signs in young people ahead of time, or just beefing up security to keep OTHERS out of the schools, or scrutinizing the media for the sensationalistic portrayal of the killers, which in turn provides good reason for others seeking attention to emulate recent attacks (notice how they come in waves).

Peace to you, Brenda, and the little one.
