Lioness Alert: Mom Demands Armed Guard on Her Kid’s Campus

Great advice. I’m going to go to my girls school tomorrow morning to see what security they have in place. I’m scared and it wouldn’t hurt to have added police presence.

She’s insane. Guns will lead to more deaths. What if the students decided to tackle the armed guards and take his gun? Ridiculous advise. All guns should be banned.

This will be ironic. The logical outcome of this thesis is that our schools will look like and function like high security federal prisons, making our insulated inmate students completely safe, made and kept so by hired strangers. Safe from all intruders, except that their teachers will continue to indoctrinate them daily in the amoral views of man and the world, the very public school indoctrination that helped create monsters like the Newtown shooter. There is much more to this problem than just replicating another obscene TSA-like atmosphere in our schools. As much as you want assurances that your children will be secure from physical dangers, we need to work on the toxic, insidious assaults of the Progressive culture.

Some Stats to ponder:

- According to the National Transportation Safety Administration, 90+ Americans died ‘innocently’ on our highways the same day as the Newtown tragedy, and have done so each day on average since. No national / politicized grieving is in progress for those several hundred dead.

- According to the Gutmacher Institute, on average 3000+ children were summarily, and under state sanction, executed in the womb on the same day at Newtown, and have done so since, via abortion, be it late term, or even via infanticide due to botched abortion … all the preceding supported by Obama in his one and only vote in the US Senate in his two years there … Yet, no national / politicized grieving is in progress for those many thousands dead.

Let’s think hard about where we have been, where we are, and where we truly want to go as the United States of America. Continuing down the track of secular Progressivism … where good = bad and vice versa … is the hair of the dog … the belief that more of what makes you throw up, will make you better.

For the most part I agree here but we need to start using some common sense. We should allow the personnel at schools who have a CPL/CCW to carry on school grounds. In instances at schools where the law was defied and individuals brought their weapon anyway the victims were lower than what would have been otherwise, however in both instances the weapon was in their vehicle which wasted precious time. We will never stop insane individuals who are hellbent in causing chaos. Must we make it easy for them by being sitting ducks also known as a “weapon free zone”? Also known as “shoot here first”. Allow the carriers to defend themselves and those that surround them.

Mary. Thank you for writing the article. As a father whose wife has home educated our twin sons (now finishing off) I want to strongly urge you to do the same. You will not believe how strong your relationship with your children will stay (become?) if you do so. It is also a lot easier to keep them safe when they are at home, and not just from weapons violence. Bullying, negative peer pressure, exposure to immorality can all be avoided.

As for public schools, having armed guards may help, but Israel’s experience shows that these personnel just get killed first, then the innocents. The major advantage an attacker has is the element of surprise (i.e. no one knows where or when or how he will attack). Defenders need the element of surprise as well (i.e. attacker can’t tell who is armed or where they are). Allowing school personnel (who want to) to get trained and to carry concealed is the best short-term solution. Long term we need to really address the root causes that make so many of our youth want to kill themselves and/or others.

Here is just a thought… Most police dept’s are stretched thin as it is. Take notice it took the police 20 minutes to respond.. In most towns there are any number of “retired” police or military personel. Suppose they were to obtain their concealed carry permits and training and either be hired by the school or even volunteer as security? I am a 22 yr veteran of the armed forces. I have a concealed carry permit, i am will trained in the use of firearms, obtained a 100% accuracy with a 45 in my training. I would willingly volunteer my time to protect the children of our school and i would bet that you could find some in your town who would also…. sargent rock.

Why did Obama and his far left let the monies for security at schools lapse in 2010? All part of his propaganda for a socialist takeover of OUR COUNTRY

Gun Free Zones Don’t Work. Here’s some stats for you.

If we were to give up our guns, how long do you think it would be before obama took total control of our country. There will be a core group of people who would not give up their guns and a revolution would soon start. For the betterment of our country I say pressure your reps in congress to follow the constitution and impeach obama before he totally destroys it.

When China says the U.S. needs gun control, that is like an unchained maniac telling someone he wants to shoot at young school children, a very “soft target”. At the beginning of World War II, prior to the bombing of Pearl Harbor, a suggestion was made to invade the U.S.; General Yamamoto of Japan responded, “No, there is a gun behind every door in the U.S.” Keeping Semi-Automatic Assault rifles and magazine clips behind as many doors in the U.S. as possible is a strong deterrent. We do not need to present the U.S. as a “soft target” to every tough country out there in the world who would like to run over us, especially those countries to whom we owe a lot of money.

All but one of the mass shootings was in a Gun Free Zone.
Shooters look for soft targets and prefer to be unopposed. We can engage in a
do-it-yourself program by arming teachers, or we can spend ourselves silly on
Security Guards, and still not do an adequate job. Buses must be guarded…entrances
and exits…children approaching or leaving school…

Israel has 4.7 murders per 100,000, and the
U.S. has 5.9 murders per 100,000.

The Israelis are very cost-conscious, and arming teachers with assault rifles
slung over their shoulders was an easy decision because every person in Israel
must do military service. The Israeli people did not even want to pay for the
defense systems they have. Because not every person in the U.S. serves in the
military, arming teachers seems like an outrageous solution, but in order to adequately
protect people, keep our freedoms and prevent outrageous costs to tax payers,
arming teachers is the most sensible solution. People in the U.S. must start
taking personal responsibility. Why would Americans be stupid enough to pay for
Security Guards for schools when Israelis do not? Are Israelis actually smarter than Americans?
The truth is: Americans do not really want to admit we have a problem, and they
will pay any amount of money to try cover up our problem, while the Israelis
are totally realistic. Any time we leave anything up to the government, we get
an inferior job for an enormous amount of money spent. We can keep building our
Police State, or citizens can take responsibility. Which is it going to be?

School model in Texas already has armed teachers.

As the author alluded, the most important question here is whether Christians ought to have their kids in these schools at all. Scripture is clear, “parents teach your childrn as you rise up, as you sit down, as you sit in your house, as you walk by the way” Deut 6. Hence, pretty much all the time as far as I can tell. Get you kids out of the officially Godless schools. Public schools teach every subject from the perspective that God is irrelevant to all learning. That is a deadly message. Christians ought to be getting their kids out of these gun free, God free zones and start obeying God.
