"It was unnerving," said Vice Mayor Martha Meserve. She added: "Our staff is supposed to be on alert to look for suspicious activity, to look for terrorists, and now they're being told that if they question someone carrying a weapon, they are harassing people. You can't have it both ways."

Uh huh!

In recent years Northern Virginia has had an enormous increase in gang activity, mostly ethnic gangs being involved. At the same time there is an enormous resurgence of wildlife, foxees, for example, with intrusions into regular suburban neighborhoods on a startling scale.

The actions of Falls Church, an isolated majority liberal bastion, are like those of the educracy, which, rather than recognize and actually address the ethnic gang problem, has banned even pocket knives for little boys.

Anything to avoid dealing with the problem while pretending to do so with "solutions" that enlarge and protect the "progresssive" liberal state which the secularists worship.

yah, even when I was a boy in 1950's every boy in school was allowed to carry a pocketknife; even Bowie Knives were allowed as long as in the sheath on your side n strapped in and completely visible to the teacher.

If you got driver's license at 16 thru drivers education, you could even park your jalopy outside the school with your .22 rifle unbreeched n unloaded in the rear jalopy window.

We were all hunters then with our uncles and fathers for deer in hunting season.

We were all marksmen- could hit a ground hog's ears shadows at 500 yards.

these people want to change things anew to a strange way that isn't the same reality that is our American traditions since 1607.

If you check the comic books since the 1930's you can see pocketknives advertised in there for kids to buy, totally unprohibited as the law allowing such a purchase was delineated under the ads.
