So it sounds as though the NRA is advocating a gunfight at the OK Corral solution to gun violence. They believe teachers and administrators should be armed. Now think about it - a madman with assault weapons enters a classroom. By the time the teacher recognizes a threat and pulls a weapon out of their desk, or wherever, the madman has already mowed down a half dozen children, including, perhaps the armed teacher. If the teacher avoids being killed in the initial volley, he/she and the madman engage in an old fashioned gunfight in a crowded classroom. Yep, that will solve all our problems! The LEADERSHIP of the NRA is out of touch with the members of their own organization, and in another world from the rest of America. Good grief!
Now think about it a madman with 2 gallons of gasoline sets fire to a school, so we ban gasoline?
