Point of logic regarding students needing to "feel safe" in school

[Phazer]

I was just listening to some of the reporting surrounding the Florida high school shooting. I repeatedly heard Parkland students say that they do not believe in having armed guards and armed teachers in schools because they do not want to feel like they are in prison. They want other ways to protect their schools, including firearms restrictions.

To those students I'd ask: Okay...well...when you're not in school, and you've been successful in your campaign to disarm law-abiding citizens, how will you protect yourselves after you graduate and move out on your own to live in places that do not have 24/7 police protection or even the protections that you insist on for schools? Don't you think that your campaign to disarm law-abiding citizens, and your future selves, is shortsighted?

Bus them to Chicago South Side schools for a semester.

Police officers in schools should be an opportunity for kids to bond with them. Right now law enforcement is seen as the enemy in many communities. This could be a way to change that.

"Point of logic..."

um... there's nothing logical about what is going on. It's all emotional, irrational, and spurious.

You're right. What was I thinking. Sorry.

Its hard to plug a sucking chest wound with safe feelings.

These kids are not trying to create gun control laws. They are trying to get to the long term goal of confiscation. Make no mistake about that. They are the puppets of their globalist billionaire puppeteers. They just don't understand that only the good guys guns will be confiscated. I guess in their young, immature, indoctrinated minds anyone who owns a gun is a bad guy, ie: deplorables. So confiscating all the legal guns, representing probably 50% of ALL guns is a win.

Keep in mind these children like the liberal bastions they come from aren't looking for autonomy. They want to be coddled and taken care of, at any cost. Hence their willingness to relinquish any hope of self preservation.

Sometimes I tend to share the same points time after time.

When I was an MP in the Army, one of our tasks everyday was school patrol. We would post an Officer at each school prior to the kids getting there. We would park our cars out of the way and leave a couple of lights on so the car was very visible. We would walk around the school grounds until all of the kids were in their classrooms.

We would come back to the school at different times of the day and walk the halls. We would stop in the offices and check in. Occasionally, we would pop into an assembly or special event at the school. We would always provide presence patrols at school events like sporting events.

We spoke with students, teachers and parents all of the time. We maintained an excellent relationship with all. The students were never afraid to approach us. We never treated them like prisoners. We did not overstep our responsibilities, we did not get involved in school business.

Civilian police and schools could learn a lot from what we did.

THAT is the primary point.

Gun ownership is being stigmatized as "undesirable" instead of being characterized as an expression of an unalienable right to self defense (from a tyrannical government or individual evildoers) enshrined in the United States Constitution.

All is good now, wait a few years and they will all feel like absolute shit for being involved in the stripping of Rights. Someday, they will spawn, they will have children; their children will know that they were the reason for fewer Rights.

Very good point.

Just do what the Russians do, train the students to use the rifles to defend their schools. I know I'd feel pretty safe with my own rifle on school grounds.

Take a look inside a Russian school where middle-schoolers learn to shoot assault rifles along with normal classes

Iirc it's more than just one school, it might be nationwide by now.

its a shame that these students are selling their souls for 15 minutes of fame, someday they will look back and say i was wrong

 

[cpython]

These kids are really stupid and brainwashed. You don't hear students in the Maryland shooting. Complaining about the armed officer who stepped in. Or not wanting armed guards or teachers. These idiots want other ways of protection, including firearms restrictions? Let's see here. Metal detectors. No! Can't have that! To expensive. And we can't have our snowflakes subject to that! Besides it will take to much of their precious time. Firearm restrictions? Yeah right. More like gun bans! And repealing the 2nd Amendment! That's the main motive.

Bonding there is no bonding with police, there job is to profile your ass and find a violation. FINES FINES FINES ...

Have a friend who immigrated, I asked her about this, For the most part the AK classes ended with the cold war and fall of the Berlin wall. Now are they starting it up again, or this a state run military school, a Russian ROTC?

Just do what the Russians do, train the students to use the rifles to defend their schools. I know I'd feel pretty safe with my own rifle on school grounds.
