anyone who has an opinion on gun control should read this:

It's a long post, but it's great. It sums up everything that most of us gun owners feel. It's all backed by statistical data and facts.Negs to anyone that:
makes a terrible troll thread
makes any conspiracy theory thread
makes a religious/political thread without knowledge of what they're talking about

not to mention the fact others have mentioned about 90% of teachers being female, weak (physically and mentally), and overly irrational and emotional. And let's also assume these teachers can pick their shots well in close proximity to avoid hitting a kid in the head? Yeah, good idea, nice fantasy, *******.

I hope you are being facetious. Every school in America is a gun free zone. Making a law saying you cant have a weapon within 1000 feet of this sign is not going to stop criminals who dont care about laws in the first place. The only thing it will do is stop law abiding citizens from having the means to protect themselves.
Even if we did start making schools with 15 foot barbed wire fences, people who are hell bent on mass murder will just go find another target rich environment with unarmed prey. The problem here is not the tools in which they used to commit the mass murders, it is WHY they are doing it.
There is more than 1 teacher in most schools and the idea would be for the teachers to have the weapon concealed, so no one knows they are carrying it in the first place.Last post in every thread crew

You're right, bro. Let's just cancel the whole thing and let the gunman shoot as many kids as they can before the police get there. You have the logic of these weak female teachers you speak of.
BRB no guns allowed because you might shoot a kid trying to kill the gunman. Like a gunman is not going to kill the kid anyway? Jesus think your arguments through before you post.Best Blog for Personal Finance:

Most just want it to be an option for those that want have / want to get a CHL and get some extra training. Thousands (maybe millions) of people (including teachers) can already get a CHL and carry a concealed gun pretty much anywhere. People said this would turn every parking lot dispute into a bloodbath, which it plainly hasn't. What is it about a school that suddenly makes it a bad thing? The presence of children? There are children all over the place in public.
This doesn't change anything except it expands the area that people with CHLs can legally carry in.
The reason mass shootings occur in places like these far more often than not, is because the person who intends to murder people knows that there are no guns in these gun free zones.Don't complain about the results you didn't get from the work you didn't do.

my high school had metal detectors, you could just sneak in at lunch time through one of the side doors
edit: i did it often because i always cut the class before lunch time (lol fuk ceramics)
looking back its scary how easy it would be to shoot up my highschool even though they had metal detectors and an armed cop there
a kid was even st abbed one day and we had to wait 10 mins for our teacher to clean the blood and we still had class (srs)You don't need a reason to help people.

Do you have proof to back up the claim of 90% of teachers being female?
While it may be true that they are physically weaker (we could debate the rest), it is also in their nature to be mothering. If you actually think that female teachers are going to "crack" and kill children in cold blood, then I would seek professional help if I were you..Last post in every thread crew

sorry, i meant that the area around the president is a TRUE gun-free zone, enforced by the secret service( who has their own guns) so it is a "enforced gun-free zone" in essence where only the secret service is allowed to have guns
if the secret service did not prepare every area and turn it into a enforced gun-free zone, their guns could not fully protect the president because someone could just shoot the president before the secret service could protect him
enforced gun free zones or true gun free zones truly CANNOT have a firearm ever inside them without first killing the guards/ secret service agents
schools are "fake gun free zones" where they simply make a law to disarm everyone in the school, but its not truly gun-free because anyone can take a gun there if they feel like breaking the law
the difference between a school and the presidents destination locations is the presidents destination locations are NOT "fake gun free zones", they are truly gun-free and THATS what makes the president safe
so my idea to make our kids safe is to change every schools status from a "fake gun free zone" to a real true "enforced gun free zone" with barbed wire fences and metal detectors and armed guards protecting the entrance
EDIT: to your SECOND point, there are very few "fake gun free zones" in america, schools are one of them, then theres movie theaters and some malls. I feel schools are the most obvious target, and the most touchy subject, once we turn schools into true "enforced gun free zones" then the mass murderers will only have movie theaters to target, eventually the population will realize "fake gun free zones" do not save lives, and every zone must EITHER be a guns-allowed zone OR a "enforced gun-free zone" to provide maximum protection

Depends where you place them. If they're at the school door obviously not sh*t.
If they're at some barb wire fence 30 feet from the school entrance maybe it does something assuming there's someone there to gun him down.
Really though the idea behind a metal detector is as much as a deterrent as anything else. If you had the option to shoot up an area that has detectors you had to go through or a place without them which would you choose? It's just another obstacle/problem really. They wouldn't stop anyone really determined if that's what you're asking though.

So a metal detector stops and detains people with a gun on them?
Does it let the police get there faster?
Does it alert the armed guard or armed teacher that doesn't exist in many schools?
A metal detector does nothing but detect. It says "hey this guy has something made of metal on him" - unless you have a person who can respond and meet force with force they are useless.
Read your sig, and listen to what I am saying.Don't complain about the results you didn't get from the work you didn't do.
