Oh my goodness PB you are so right.

The irony is that last night with nieces, daughter and various in-laws we discussed just that very issue.

We talked about how we used to have air raids (yes, I remember these) and yeah, we dove under our desks too.

I also remember being very scared. I was around Kaitlyn’s age when I was going through that trend.

And, indeed, as you say, here we are again.

I got a little bit of a broken heart that granddaughter must live with this but so it is.

Shooters like the one in Conn and in Colorado and the one who shot Giffords, et. al. (including a 9-year old) are direct products of two powerhouse institutions dominated by the longterm Soviet-influenced American Left:

The union-run public education system; and the apparatchik lamestream entertainment media and its kook cousins in the computer games racket.

As to the latter, I’m always tickled when Hollywood types say that their products have no impact on viewers (and USERS in the case of games).

This same platform for liberal-speak (claiming their carefully crafted images and narratives have no influence over youth behavior) not that long ago persuaded their own moguls to remove cigarette advertising from TV because it was too seductive and led children to try smoking.

The hypocrisy is rank and evokes the olfactory sensation of a walk through a landfill.
