[QUOTE=HatchetJack;143019]Bad judgment using the President's kids as an example imo. But they do have a
point even though they went about it the wrong way.
All High School athletic events have armed police officers yet every morning
I drop my kids off at school the only cop in sight is 1/2 mile down the road
writing speeding tickets to, well, mostly parents trying to make the 8:00
buzzer.

Even the threat of there "might" be an armed guard on site would save more
lives than another "assault"? weapons ban.[/QUOTE]

Hi Jack, If congress can find the will and really does it without buying back all of the "assault" weapons already out there, it won't make a lot of difference.
I'm with the president on providing the school districts the funds they need to hire armed guards, they've been a fixture in most of the inner city schools for many years already. I wouldn't have an objection to putting in metal detectors either. It's a shame that we've come to this but we've got to make an effort at protecting our citizens from crazy murderers. I guess shopping malls and theaters are next.
