hobbes4star 0 #1 October 8, 2006 Finally, some sense is being discussed in the area of education. Now that school kids are starting to off each other like it's the national pastime one lawmaker has stood up and proposed an idea that we have all probably been thinking about anyway...arming teachers with guns. Wisconsin state representative Frank Lasee wants to make it legal for teachers and other staff to carry guns. The Republican realizes his proposal is extreme. But, he says it's a concept that has worked well in other countries, like Israel and Thailand, so why not Wisconsin? Why not indeed? "When you can make someone think twice about doing some- thing like that or be very concerned about 'Gee, I don't know what classroom is going to have someone who's armed and who may return fire' I think that's a good thing," says Lasee. I'd like to see some little punk waltz into a classroom and start waving around his daddy's service revolver when he knows Ms. Crabapple is packing a .357 caliber stainless steel Smith & Wesson in her girdle. And imagine what it would do for attendance, tardiness and grade point averages. Sure, to start out with you're going to have a lot of flesh wounds, maybe a few limbs blown off, do you know how hard it is to graze an eight-year-old arm with a large caliber round? But pretty soon the little bastards would start to get the idea. And think of the benefits! Teachers could deliver lines like, "Go ahead, do your homework." while staring down the barrel of a .45 semi-automatic. How cool would that be? So my recommendation is to write a letter immediately to your congressman or woman and demand that teachers be given the right to carry concealed weapons in the class- room. And in the meantime you can start by beating your little ankle-biters regularly.if fun were easy it wouldn't be worth having, right? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SkydiveJack 1 #3 October 9, 2006 QuoteLaughing out loud. I agree wholeheartedly Many years ago when I went to High School in a small Missouri town, it was normal during hunting season for students and teachers to park in the school lot with full rifle racks in their pickups. They would go hunting together before and after school. It was normal and never an issue. Now if a little kid sticks out his finger and thumb and says "Bang" they get expelled and sent to counseling.

mnealtx 0 #4 October 9, 2006 QuoteMy how times have changed! And not for the better, either. I love how the anti's think that simply have a weapon is going to magically turn sweet Ms. Crabapple into a raving lunatic throwing lead all over the school. Here's a thought for the friggin moonbat moron crowds - if you think a teacher would deliberately harm a child if they were allowed to carry a weapon, just *MAYBE* you might want to get your child out of that school!!Mike I love you, Shannon and Jim.
