Took the poll and it’s up to 88% now. Also noted the teachers unions want nothing to do with this idea. Typical liberal stance.

The state's largest teacher's union said it isn't in favor of allowing anyone to have guns in schools.

Maybe we should ask the staff who apparently went hands on with the killer to try to save lives if they would have preferred to have had had a gun. Oh wait.

What is the common denominator in all mass shootings?

“Gun Free Zones”.

When is the last time there has been one at a gun show, a gun range, during deer season, or at a police station?

This is because the shooters might be crazy and evil; but they are not STUPID. They want to enjoy; for once in their miserable lives, the feeling of power. This is why they seek out unarmed victims.

Once a good guy with a gun shows up they almost always kill themselves; the fun is over once someone can shoot back.
