The NRA's solution to the shooting also solves the unemployment problem: an armed guard in every school.   :zombiefuck:

1791, second amendment, the right to carry arms for everybody being a US citizen.. isn't that a bit 1791-ish, maybe? Anno 2013?

NRA, their lobbyists, are considered evil in most of the world, I add here. In mine they are. Aren't they mostly catholics and jews, I'm wondering now.

Second part first.  No, in fact Moses (Charlton Heston) is a member.

The Second Amendment is, "A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed."  This was written at a time when the US had a minimal standing military force.  AFAIK, we don't have a militia, much less a well regulated one.  And I'm pretty sure the security of a free state refers to invasion by another country.

^ Yes, you're right.. but in that monotheistic spirit, being utmost confident being right, shite goes. Typically jew or cath-like, imo.

You have a quite small dick, haven't you, mla?

Seriously? Of the types of violence an armed guard is likely to commit, I wouldn't have thought an amok mass shooting spree in the school they're supposed to be protecting (as opposed to say domestic violence or a confrontation on the street or something else) would be the most statistically likely.

Though personally I think if you're going to arm anyone in a school, the teachers are a better idea, because one guard isn't going to have very good coverage.
You'll never self-actualize the subconscious canopy of stardust with that attitude.

   I recently saw a post on Facebook asking  "Which of these signs would more likely
   deter a shooter?"  First was the standard sign announcing  "No weapons of any kind on
   this property."  The second option was a stick figure of a person leveling a rifle, captioned 

             "Staff heavily armed and trained.
             Any attempt to harm a child
             will be met with deadly force."

We should arm pimps, paedophiles and drug dealers and give them licenses to operate on school grounds.  They'll make sure that nobody interferes with their kid-pimping, paedophiling and pushing.  We'd have to screen out the necropaedophiles though, so that everyone is fully incentivised to keep the kids alive.
