Robertson: Home schools need metal detectors
VIRGINIA BEACH, Vir. - Calling the shooting deaths of Michael and Cathryn Borden "the home schooling movement's very own Columbine," televangelist Pat Robertson urged parents who home school their children to install metal detectors in their houses.

The Bordens, both 50, who home schooled each of their five children, resided near the Amish-country village of Lititz, Pennsylvania. Early Sunday morning David G. Ludwig, 18, who had been dating the Bordens' fourteen-year-old daughter, Kara Beth, shot and killed her parents over a curfew dispute.

"We can no longer afford to assume every home schooled pupil walks with Jesus in his heart," said Robertson. "The presence of a metal detector in the Bordens' home might have prevented this tragedy."
