VT Shooting (Yoni, an American-Israli's perspective)

America has created sheep pens in our schools where students and teachers are just ripe for the slaughter.

In this world of ours their are just some simple facts, that in order to grow up you must face.

Evil existing in this world.

Get over it and now figure out how to deal with it.

You have two choices you can kneel down and take a bullet to the back of the head or you can be prepared and fight.

If I were a student I would get a back pack with two compartments. One for my books and school supplies and the other would hold my fanny pack with a pistol and ammo.

Would I be running the risk of getting kicked out of school if found out, yes. Would I even run the risk of being arrested in some locations, yes.

So you know what the answer is, don't get caught.

Gun control made the schools of America gun free and full of potential victims for terrorist and crazies.

Israel learned the lesson from our VT shooting, it happened at Ma'alot in 1974.

Our answer was to not only allow guns in school but to arm some of the teachers as well.

When was the last time terrorist took on an Israeli school?

When we do not learn from events - when we stand pigheaded in face of reality, grasping to altruistic notions of morality, or our own self-righteous thoughts of what is best for everyone else because surely individuals are incapable of thinking for themselves or acting responsibly .... then we are part of the problem and not the solution. (sorry for the giant run-on sentence). Bottom line: if every person on that campus that was not justifiably disqualified from possesing a handgun - had a handgun with them and knew with certainty they could defend themselves and others against imminent death with the backing of the law - this tragedy would have played out very differently, if it would have even happened at all.

Does anybody else here think placing the facility into “lockdown mode” at the first sign of violence is a bad idea? My instinct would tell me to get everybody outside as quicky as possible and have them run off in divergent directions.
