So now that there is a new tragedy the president wants to have a “national conversation on guns”. Here’s the thing. Until this national conversation is willing to entertain allowing teachers to carry concealed weapons, then it isn’t a conversation at all, it is a lecture.
…The single best way to respond to a mass shooter is with an immediate, violent response. The vast majority of the time, as soon as a mass shooter meets serious resistance, it bursts their fantasy world bubble. Then they kill themselves or surrender. This has happened over and over again.
I mean it, it is the best post I have seen on this issue. Memorize it.
I read it earlier today. And I’ll be forwarding it on. An excellent read, indeed.
@Jeff I too. I’ve been saying a lot of what he says for years – but without his credits.
However, I will say that I convinced my mother (at least for a few minutes – she’s got alzheimer’s and, for a Republican, is DISGUSTINGLY pacifistic – oh just let them kill/rape/torture you – you might have to fight, otherwise – and that’s not LADYLIKE) that arming teachers was not a bad thing.
(If you get the idea that my mother – as a Republican., is part of the problem, you are probably right….)
Kathy, I really like how he addresses the arming teachers bit. It makes perfect, reasonable sense.
Oh, and it costs, er, nothing.
“Oh, and it costs, er, nothing.”
@Mr. Bingley EXACTLY!
And is therefore forever banned from mainstream politics. 🙁
LEFT OR RIGHT. Sorry, yer token indi here.
Hell, if a teacher wants a pistol, and can’t afford one, I’ll pick up the tab. And for the concealed carry holster.
P.S. Ain’t no profit in it…
@JeffS
And so would I – at least once or twice, I’m poor but proud. But where could we advertise that?
Good question, Kathy. Tell the NRA, maybe?
Might work…
Let the unions pay for the guns. It’s their people that are in danger. Make some of their dues go for productive causes for once.
