Some people (including Marco Rubio) say that we can’t ban assault rifles because we can’t define them. But there was a ban from 1994 to 2004, when the law lapsed. So evidently lawmakers in 1994 did manage to figure out how to define what they were banning. Furthermore, I gather that after the ban lapsed there was an increase in the number of mass shootings. The ban did not, however, have an effect on other kinds of gun violence. That’s not surprising, since most ordinary gun violence probably involves pistols. There are various sorts of gun violence, and therefore there is no single solution. But a ban on assault rifles would be a start. And it’s clear that the courts would allow it. What possible justification can there be to allowing people to have these weapons? (And I will ignore all the nit-picking responses about "Oh, but that’s not an assault weapon. Read the first three sentences again.)
Minus the guns, is any teachers’ lounge really that comfortable or spacious? I almost forget, you need to get rid of any windows to further secure the guns.
I think that if at least one teacher on each section of a school had a gun and proper training, that some of the killing s could either stop or be less violent. You are never going to stop a person from trying to kill no matter what!

Looks like the Hells Angels apartment I accidentally walked into one day.
Or is that what our right wing workers paradise will look like when Republicans force arms upon teachers rather than do what is right.

Republicans only want to sell more guns, Wake Up!

The Republican utopia – it wasn’t enough to take all your money, now they want to kill your children too.

P S I know I am in trouble for putting the above on here by the looks of things, but that is my opinion!

I always say I’m glad I’m not younger than I am, and that’s just one more reason.
