Re "NRA-backed panel calls for guns in schools," April 3
One way to look at the NRA-backed panel's recommendation that select school employees should be trained and armed to provide security for kids on campus is as a marketing ploy masquerading as a safety measure.
The arming of designated school staff will train generations of schoolchildren to feel that their personal safety relies on being armed. This increases the potential for a robust future of firearm consumers.
Is this the message we want our children to receive?
