There's potential for abuse with all wielders of power- what is valid?

I suppose boredom leads to pointless yabber about what goes on in another country which is totally irrelevant to our own. I get bored on Sundays, and that sometimes leads me to look at pointless BS posts, with their BS pontificating that won't make a iota of difference to what goes on in America, where actual Americans can't do anything to stop their own people from shooting other Americans. It's a peculiarly American thing: doesn’t happen anywhere else - at least not on a regular basis. In a short time, it will happen again, then again ... over and over; and the BS yapping will be the same. Yawn.

You can try and make alliances for the common wealth but at the end of the day you protect yourself or you die. It's the way of mother nature- a cruel beast to be sure.

The way to protect ourselves and our society is
by enacting simple laws that make guns safer and
harder to get so that we can prevent killings like
ones in Uvalde and Buffalo.

At least 19 elementary school children and two teachers
are dead, many more are injured and a grandmother is
fighting for her life in Uvalde, Texas, all because a
young man, armed with an AR-15 style rifle decided
to fire in a school.

SR,

Need me to do more research for you?...

"It did diddly squat." (referring to SR's claim that "Texas already allows for armed teacher in its schools. ")

As with most things SR just hopes are true, this isn't. Texas is an open carry state. But some places are barred as regards people being allowed to carry guns. Schools, court, federal buildings etc. Again schools. There were no armed teachers. Armed teachers are verboten. They are allowed armed marshals if the school desires, but this one didn't have one at the crucial time.

Like I said, just hoping things are true isn't a good policy.

SR asserts (assertion is all he has these days) that armed teachers wouldn't have made a difference and my point to the contrary is idiotic. As usual I've done the research and will share it with the less able....

"Schools that Allow Teachers to Carry Guns haven’t seen school shootings during school hours"

Quick ignore it. We don't want it to be true.

America's premier newspaper has another solution to the problem....

Hi there STEELEREDUX...

Yup, I would say this form of justice impotence is one of the main causes why detectives chuck in the towel. And the uniform guys suffer similar vocational negatives, with attitudinal abuse, and negative overtures from those individuals from whom they seek their co-operation.

There's an old saying STEELE;

Whenever you're in trouble, the first person you want to see is a copper;

And the 'last' person you want to share a beer with, is also a copper.
