The armed guard at Columbine couldn't stop the killing.
Arming teachers might improve the odds, in an incident, but that is doubtful. In the confusion that always ensues, friendly fire injuries are at least as likely as stopping the bad guys. And accidental shootings are inevitable.
IMO.

Hopefully now that the gun bill has been "shot down," the SH parents can go back to Newtown and start the painful process of healing and moving on. I hope to never see another SH parent paraded in front of the cameras or given a mic, like some puppet peddling Obama's agenda. They need and deserve privacy to rebuild their lives.
Civil war battle lines being drawn as Magpul, Colt, Beretta and other gun manufacturers relocate to pro-Constitution states
A civil war looks likely to break out in America, and it will pit gun rights advocates (people who love liberty) against gun control zealots (people who hate freedom and love tyranny). The battle lines are being drawn right now as gun manufacturers are leaving anti-Constitution states like Connecticut and Colorado and relocating to pro-Constitution states like Texas and Arizona.
Can't wait for that "well-regulated militia" to fulfill its purpose. Maybe we'll see it on the July 4 armed march on Washington!
(TIC, in case you can't tell.)
Timmy, What would be your opinion of pushing gun regulation, in which, no criminal will abide, does not now abide? Who then is that regulation imposed on? Would your response be, non-criminals?

I don't actually have a firm position on this matter, contrary to what my posts may imply. I think it is not black and white, as some seem to think. (Some on both sides, by the way.)

I agree. The straw purchase is something I wrestle with myself.
