Common sense just took a huge step forward as the Kiona-Benton School Board voted Monday night to allow designated school administrators to carry guns on campus, providing an extra level of security for students and staff.
According to KNDU, School Superintendent Wade Haun said, “I think the big takeaways are the fact that our students will be better protected and our staff will be well-trained and we will continue to train other staff members as well in other ways to keep our kids safe.”
However, to paraphrase former Vice President Spiro Agnew, the news has gotten a thumbs-down from the nattering nannies of negativism. Said one critic: “There is ZERO reason for anyone to be carrying loaded guns at a school!”

“There is ZERO reason for anyone to be carrying loaded guns at a school!”
Except for the occasional frothing lunatic who decides that entering a school and massacring as many people as possible is just the cat's ass.
Or am I wrong....? |

TO REMEMBER |
| "And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling in terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand? [...] The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt!" —Alexander Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago (Chapter 1 "Arrest") |
