>Just how stupid has this country become?

From article: “We were kind of petrified, all huddled into corner like were supposed to do with a lockdown,” said senior Holly Decarteret.

Apparently stupid enough to implement a “huddle in the corner” policy which would make things all the easier for someone to kill/injure a higher number of people... especially if they were using grenades / pipe-bombs. [/disgust]

And there’s people that look at me like I’m some sort of sick, demented person for thinking things like that... I’m starting to think they’re stupid idiots for NOT thinking it. (Of course, that I’ve put some time in the military may influence my perceptions.)

Ditto on that. Always had my pocket knife with me. And deer season meant rifles in the parking lot. No big deal. I understand times have changed. But arresting children for a toy is a ridiculous “solution”. I’d rather times had not changed. Let’s roll all this “progress” back instead.

Funny, huh ... One doesn’t have to be smarter than the “predator”, only smarter than the rest of the “prey”. Unfortunately, with feminism beating “chivalry” out of our male youth, Ms. Decarteret is far less likely these days to have a Knight in Shining Armor to defend her and the other huddled masses. As far as “prey” goes, they make themselves easy pickings.

Zero tolerance (zero intelligence) policies in action.

“Oh noes, I don’t know what that large orange cap at the end is for!”

Try to imagine the chaos that would have resulted from somebody actually popping off a roll of caps. You can still buy them, I see - $2.69 for a box of 20 50-shot rolls. Ammo's sure gone up.

Mind you, anyone who took a cap gun to my high school would have been hooted off the property. Might as well bring a pacifier.

We need a comprehensive cap gun ban.

The whole school probably needs grief counseling, too.

We've become a nation of pussies.

That’s nothing... I had security-types bugging me for taking a plastic practice-sword to my local tea-party... despite that my state is AN OPEN CARRY STATE! (That means, had I wished, I could have worn all three of my handguns and slung my rifle and shotgun and walked down the street, all perfectly legal.)

Careful, all that weight could pull your pants down.

Why do you think they invented suspenders?
