New topic: "Mass school shootings" and students fear of being caught up in one.

This is a problem created out of whole cloth by the news media and liberal politicians as part of he campaign to disarm law-abiding Americans. Proposed solutions won't help, and arming responsible citizens (school employees and parents) which would help is prevented.

In Israel there is a rule that members of the military must be armed, even when off duty. The best solution for a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun. You never hear in the news reports when the armed passer-by stops the deranged mass killer before he gets started.

And OBTW there are 37,000 high schools in the USA and less than 20 "mass shootings" in the last 10 years. ("Mass" where more than 1 person was hit by a bullet in or just outside a school.)

20 is too many to put up with, but we need to have a workable response (armed citizenry) and solve the real underlying problem (kids growing up in fatherless families and releasing the mentally ill onto our streets). Less than 2 in a group of 37,000 per year is pretty low. And some of the "mass shootings" took place in middle schools, raising the denominator of the ratio.

PROTECT THE SECOND AMENDMENT from the Socialist/Communist/Democrats. JUST SAY NO to gun grabbers.
