NRA Logic On Guns Is A Meme For. "We Must Have Open Carry Nationally".

The arming teachers argument logically ends up wth the idea we must have open carry every where. Schools are not the only place where we have had shootings. The NRA will never give up the idea that we must allow "good guys with a gun" to be out in the public forums no matter where it is.

And there should be no restrictions. There should be no back ground checks. This idea is nonsense.

Their were 4 trained and equipped police or security people there and they didn't act but we expect Mrs. Applewhite to suddenly switch from teaching to being Wyatt Earp or Dirty Harry?

As was pointed out after the Aurora CO theater shooting - having civilians firing back in a chaotic dark panic stricken room is a really bad idea.

BTW - heard much about magazine sizes in any news coverage? I haven't. That seems to be law enforcements #1 concern - slowing down the rate of fire and possibly a malfunction or operator error.
