IMHO if you want to really keep our children safe from killers and not have guards in the schools or not allow teachers to conceal permits in the said schools to protect the children THEN the only option is to build the schools like max. security PRISONS --that would tickle the teachers union that way they could fill the kids minds with anything wanted to put in the little minds(brain wash) when in the school/prison the teacher for that class would have the only keep to get in or out and the principle would have the master key for all the class rooms in a safe---the libatards would love something like that. teaching the next gen. of liberals
sorry for the post I've been reading about all the proposed laws they want to happen with our schools that it makes me so mad
Its ok, most everybody here will agree with you and a good rant is the best thing for lowering your blood pressure. All I know is first you've got to get mad. You've got to say, "I'm a human being. God Dammit, my life has value." So, I want you to get up now. I want all of you to get up out of your chairs. I want you to get up right now and go to the window, open it, and stick your head out, and yell, "I'm as mad as hell, and I'm not going to take this anymore!" I actually do this every now and then, of course no one can hear me from my house, but it makes me feel better
