Happy 4th Of July

So now we are arming kids in school. My god
No, but arming trained faculty members is a good idea.
And carrying in college should be allowed by students who have valid carry permits.
 
Evidence already provided....by me

Lie. You haven't provided any evidence.
Kids used to be armed in school. They took their guns to school for gun club. Besides, I am referring to instructors and staff.
 
All I can do is give you the information. I can't force you to understand it
A news organization is not valid source when it conflicts with statistics compiled by the FBI, the CIA, and the UN.
Results

US homicide rates were 7.0 times higher than in other high-income countries, driven by a gun homicide rate that was 25.2 times higher. For 15- to 24-year-olds, the gun homicide rate in the United States was 49.0 times higher. Firearm-related suicide rates were 8.0 times higher in the United States, but the overall suicide rates were average. Unintentional firearm deaths were 6.2 times higher in the United States. The overall firearm death rate in the United States from all causes was 10.0 times higher. Ninety percent of women, 91% of children aged 0 to 14 years, 92% of youth aged 15 to 24 years, and 82% of all people killed by firearms were from the United States.
Bogus numbers. Argument from randU fallacy.
Conclusions

The United States has an enormous firearm problem compared with other high-income countries, with higher rates of homicide and firearm-related suicide. Compared with 2003 estimates, the US firearm death rate remains unchanged while firearm death rates in other countries decreased. Thus, the already high relative rates of firearm homicide, firearm suicide, and unintentional firearm death in the United States compared with other high-income countries increased between 2003 and 2010.

Bogus study.
 
I agree. And therefore I don't shoot students in math class or in any class. And so I shouldn't be denied freedom to own guns.

Remember he thinks that anyone that carries a gun is going to turn into a psychopath, head for their nearest school, and shoot the place up.

So he must think police officers are psychopaths that shoot up schools.
