If the Congress wants to implement gun control to protect children, I have an idea.

[ljk]

Let's start from the top.

There are 1879 uniform officers of the US Capital Police, their job is to protect 535 Congress members(100 senate, 435 in the house).

And the Capital grounds are already Gun Free Zone, so they are already protected.

Let's put all of these officers in the schools for a few weeks, or months.

And add Secret Service, too.

 

[KokomoDave]

Nope. The ATF, FBI, CIA, and NSA need to hold their hand. I've read the book.

 

[MrSmitty]

Volunteering parents who have CCW's, or LTCH's as security at schools.on patrol, nothing is more protective than a Mama, or Papa bear.

Parents and grandparents, thankyouverymuch. If you want to check and make sure those people coming in are not prohibited from being within X distance of children or such, I think I'd be OK with that. LTCH requirement I think is less important, although to be fair, I think Utah is the state that ended the prohibition on lawfully armed adults with carry licenses/permits in K-12 schools.


I'm not aware of any school shootings in K-12 schools in Utah.

Like I've said before, lots of good men sitting in Army bases with little to do after coming home from the sandbox. Station a few to every school in the country, they're already on the payroll. Let them secure the schools, put a sign out front that say " Protection Supplied By The U.S. Military "
May change a few people's minds about causing harm to school children.

High impact/low probability events are by definition very difficult and often expensive to prepare for.
People I interact with on FB are all in a dither about forcing teachers to carry guns in school. Even with ammo as expensive as it is, we get plenty of practice shooting down straw men.
As has been said frequently, the best way to keep disarmed people from being killed is to stop disarming them.

Why would gov't want to solve the problem when they're creating the problem intentionally?

 

[chipbennett]

School shootings weren't a thing until the federal GFSZA.

Want to protect kids? Stop painting a target on schools.

Ask a politician the solution to ****ty laws?

More ****ty laws of course.

"Yup. I WON'T carry a gun."

Okay.
No one is telling you that you have to.
Duh!

Bingo.
These teachers and kids are merely chess pieces in the big agenda game.
Prove me wrong. Please.

Do you realize how many pink vagina hat wearing alleged females heads would explode at this idea let alone implementing it.
Yes let’s do this. 2 problems solved in 1 bold move.

I don't oppose this idea in principle. I'm curious (and admittedly, uncertain) if it would run afoul of Posse Comitatus.

I also have concerns of precedent, i.e. "They're in our kids' schools, why shouldn't they be in banks, too?!" (substitute whichever location in place of "banks" and add orders that anyone seen with a gun is to be shot on sight, etc.)

This is not a bad idea, giving those good men something to do in which they could take pride, I just think we need to be careful how we implement it, if so. (with the full understanding that it will never be implemented with a D in office.)

Blessings,
Bill

We also need to keep in mind that many of the teachers we're discussing being armed are also the ones teaching our kids that girls can be boys and boys can be girls, that if you are White, you are an evil colonizer, and that children from kindergarten on up should be taught both how to masturbate and about orally pleasuring one's partner, to say nothing of inserting things (organic and otherwise) into what everyone has in addition to an opinion.

No thank you, those are not the people I want having deadly weapons around our children. I'm not advocating denying their rights based on their employment. I'm advocating their removal from the process of educating our young people.

Blessings,
Bill

That is not exactly accurate. There were 7 between 1927 and 1990 in which 4 or more were killed at a school.
There certainly was an increase after that. It is a stupid law.

School Shootings Increased after Federal Gun Bans - The Truth About Guns

&#9664Previous Post Next Post▶ High school shooting teams are increasing again after decades of decline. They were common in the 40’s, 50’s, and 60’s. Increasing government and media hostility to private gun ownership caused a huge decrease in the teams from 1968 through the turn of the century...

Co-author of the liberal playbook:

"To conquer a nation, first disarm its citizens.” -- Adolf Hitler

“The state must declare the child to be the most precious treasure of the people.
As long as the government is perceived as working for the benefit of the children,
the people will happily endure almost any curtailment of liberty and almost any deprivation.” -- Adolf Hitler

“The best way to take control over a people and control them utterly is to take a little of their freedom at a time,
to erode rights by a thousand tiny and almost imperceptible reductions.
In this way, the people will not see those rights and freedoms being removed until past the point at which these changes cannot be reversed.” -- Adolf Hitler

While its a great idea, I think it might be prohibited by the constitution...........

Centralizers do not want to implement gun control to protect children.

They want to implement gun control to control you.

AKA: "Gun control" is never about guns.

It's about control.
