Who Do We Arm After The Teachers?

That will supposedly resolve ALL the school shootings, without having to limit guns in any way.

But what about all the other places where mass shootings may occur? We'll need to arm some ushers & ticket takers at every movie theatre, to avoid a repeat of the Batman shooting. For nightclubs, arm the DJ's, they are usually on an elevated platform, so would have the best shot if any trouble arose.

Sometimes a disgruntled employee goes crazy, so every office building in America will need armed guards too.

It will be tough, and take time, but thankfully the gun makers have the ability to manufacture as many guns as are necessary.

The NRA sanctioned solution is always, always, more guns. That and talk about solutions, then buy their politicians to quietly block any solution. It's really quite genius when you think about it.

When trumpy was offering up to arm classroom teachers, a man at the "listening thing" suggested arming custodians and cafeteria workers as volunteer school police. Crazy.

They probably see more people in a day than teachers. Anyone who
has an attitude problem gets an attitude adjustment from a Glock.



of course
