Emma González, a leader in the #NeverAgain movement sparked by the shooting at her school in Parkland, Florida, pointed out key flaws in President Donald Trump’s claim that arming teachers with guns could stop school shootings.
The activist called the idea of giving firearms to teachers in the classroom “stupid” during an interview with 60 Minutes that was released Friday, pointing to the financial burden of the program on an already underfunded education system and the logistical difficulties of giving teachers guns in self-defense. |

Hey. Emma. First off, grow your hair and at least LOOK like a girl.
Second, repeat after me: If a shooter comes into my classroom, I don't want anybody there to have a gun to stop them.
Now, say that 200 times in front of a video recorder. Then, lock yourself in a room and watch it until you grow a brain. |

TO REMEMBER |
| Besides the advantage of being armed, which the Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation, the existence of subordinate governments, to which the people are attached, and by which the militia officers are appointed, forms a barrier against the enterprises of ambition, more insurmountable than any which a simple government of any form can admit of. Notwithstanding the military establishments in the several kingdoms of Europe, which are carried as far as the public resources will bear, the governments are afraid to trust the people with arms. — James Madison, The Federalist Papers, No. 46 |
