Personally, I'd certainly love to see all the gun-owners in the midwest take on Army-issued drones. Good luck.
That being said, I think you're right. Gun culture is part of American culture, it's not going away, and a repeal of the Second Amendment would be, practically speaking, impossible. Which sucks, since it's a pretty dumb amendment to have IMO. I guess we'll have to explore more realistic ways of decreasing the number of mass shootings, which I hope you care about decreasing. I always find that the pro-gun crowd shuts down all gun control arguments while offering no rebuttal. Y'all do care about shootings, right? You're normal, sane, compassionate human beings who don't want to see kids shot in their classrooms, right? Sometimes I need to double check. I know it's true, but I have very little sympathy for gun lovers and a lot of sympathy for shooting victims.
I understand they can repealed. My point is, it's not happening. War could break out over it.
I definitely want mass shootings decreased. Of course I do. Arming teachers is one way to deter school shootings.
Arming teachers is brilliant. That way, a student shooter doesn't have to go through all that tedious smuggling of a gun into the school. All he has to do is take the teacher's gun away, kill the teacher and start firing into the classroom of panicked, terrified students. Easy peasy lemon squeezy.
