You can't seem to grasp that your thinking doesn't have to be mutually exclussive. I say it may be a good idea to have an armed guard or 2 for added security in public schools, and you automatically assume I'm pro guns or pro violence.
Do I think we need stricter gun laws? Absolutely! Let me make that clear: WE NEED STRICTER GUN LAWS.
...But that doesn't mean having an armed security guard as an added protection for our kids isn't a good idea. We can support both, you know.
The fact is that with stricter gun laws you wouldn't need armed guards.
This thread is about the Presidents ideea of reducing shootings , you can understand why I thinked that this was your ideea of solving the problem.
Edit: I can't grasp how an armed guard would help , if I want to start a shooting at a school I'll just take him out first and than start the killing spree.
Maybe eventually we wouldn't, but if gun laws changed tomorrow, that doesn't mean the threat would be completely eliminated overnight. I really don't see why you take such issue with an added protection until/if we get to that point.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
