When good guys don't need guns.

I can't believe that folks are not more outraged at the president's latest proposal to arm school teachers.

It is a silly and lazy proposal to a serious problem, and , more importantly, it is straight from the NRA playbook. Not surprisingly, trump is parroting this talking point.

Teachers have a hard enough job trying to TEACH. Why are we giving them the added responsibility of being armed protectors?There are already people in society who we train and pay to do that. They are called police officers. Giving some poor English teacher a few hours of  firearm training and sending him out there to stop the next mass shooter is ridiculous. Teachers don't want a bonus for firearm training, they want bonuses for helping their students learn.

The NRA wants everyone to have a gun. Preachers. Teachers. Nurses. Doctors. Everybody. More guns means more membership dues, and more people spending money. It doesn't mean a safer society. That notion that a "good guy with a gun beats a bad guy with a gun" was recently debunked in Parkland, Florida. This good guy with a gun did nothing.   I suspect that what we say happen  in Parkland (the school police officer stayed outside rather than confront the shooter) would be the norm with this half-brained idea.

"These people are cowards. They're not going to walk into a school if 20% of the teachers have guns -- it may be 10% or may be 40%. And what I'd recommend doing is the people that do carry, we give them a bonus. We give them a little bit of a bonus," Trump said. "They'll frankly feel more comfortable having the gun anyway. But you give them a little bit of a bonus." 

The head of the teachers union had a different take.  

"Teachers don't want to be armed," "We want to teach. We don't want to be, and would never have the expertise needed to be, sharp shooters; no amount of training can prepare an armed teacher to go up against an AR-15."

  1. I agree with you FN. The real problem is liberalism in schools. Schools didn't become violent until liberalism started creeping into them.

    How many mass shootings in schools in the 1940's? 1950's?

  2. So what happens after the well-armed teacher blows the head off of an unruly kid who reached into their backpack for some school supplies that the teacher mistook for a gun? Or more likely misses the kid and kills or maims a couple more kids sitting behind them?
    The NRA gun safety rules would prohibit anyone from pointing a gun at someone in a classroom full of children, so what, exactly, are they proposing?
    This is even stupider than usual for Fergus, but hardly surprising; the goddamn NRA spent thirty million dollars getting him elected, and some of those dollars may have come from Russia.

  8. Most everybody here has guns and rifles and nobody gets shot. Well there are shootings among drug dealers, but no one else. To be able to get a gun legally you have to have a clean record and a few other permits, but of course illegally anyone can get one.

  13. In 1764, three men entered a schoolhouse near present-day Greencastle, Pennsylvania, and reportedly killed 10 people. It wasn't until 1966, though, that the next mass shooting — or, at least, the next incident that would readily be recognized as a mass shooting today — occurred.

    In August of that year, a 25-year-old man named Charles Whitman went on a 96-minute shooting spree from an observation deck at the University of Texas-Austin, killing 17 people and wounding 31 others in an attack that sounds eerily reminiscent of the stories that you're all too used to hearing today. Whitman also murdered his wife and mother earlier that day before continuing on to the university — not unlike Adam Lanza, who shot and killed his mother before opening fire at Sandy Hook Elementary in 2012.

    "The NRA wants everyone to have a gun. More guns means more membership dues, and more people spending money."

    Field is so stupid, he thinks that people need to have an NRA membership to have a gun.  Hey, Field?  Owning a gun isn't like having a job where you have to pay union dues to work.  It's a RIGHT.

    "It doesn't mean a safer society."

    Yet even as the number of guns in the USA has exploded, crime has been steadily going down (with the exceptions of some cities experiencing the Ferguson effect due to the Democrat war on cops).  Most states now have shall-issue or even no-permit concealed weapons.  Crime goes DOWN...

    ... except where there are lots of Africans-in-America.

    A person close to the teenager accused of killing 17 people at a Florida high school warned the FBI she was concerned he would “get into a school and just shoot the place up,” according to a transcript of her call with a bureau tip line operator more than a month before the massacre.

    “You know, it’s just so much,” she said on the call. “I know he’s—he’s going to explode.” She said she was making the call because she wanted a “clear conscience if he takes off and, and just starts shooting places up.”

  21. I think the answer lies in the family unit where it all begins, nurturing, socialization, education, responsibility and discipline are the basics in the upbringing/rearing our children in the home.

    But it's not the answer people like or want to hear because it is the hardest work you will ever do, physically, mentally, emotionally.

    Bringing up children has always been the family's responsibility. Never the responsibility of the government, nor the schools nor any institution.

    Mother and father being the example of what a father is, and a woman being a mother. Lots of work.

    Way back in September of 2017, the "Nashville Church Shooting".

    - A black immigrant fatally shoots churchgoing white natives.

    - He is from Sudan, one of the countries included in Trump's initial travel ban. That ban, propitiously enough, expired today, on the very day of the shooting. The new ban added Chad, North Korea, and Venezuela but dropped Sudan. Maybe we put Sudan (both of them) back on the list, Mr. President?

    - His Facebook cover photo shows a black man taking a knee.

    - Samson's murder spree is cut short by someone running to his vehicle to grab his gun and then exercise his second amendment right to hold Samson down until police arrive.

    - He refers to Africa as "the Mother Land" (imagine if Roof had referred to Germany as "The Fatherland").

    - He shared this colorful clip exhorting blacks to raise young warriors to prepare for the coming fight for independence.

    - He supports all white-owned land in South Africa being seized reclaimed from whites and given returned to blacks.

    ▪ Feb. 5, 2016: A Broward Sheriff’s Office deputy is told by an anonymous caller that Nikolas Cruz, then 17, had threatened on Instagram to shoot up his school and posted a photo of himself with guns. The information is forwarded to BSO Deputy Scot Peterson, a school resource officer at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School.

    ▪ Sept. 23, 2016: A “peer counselor” reports to Peterson that Cruz had possibly ingested gasoline in a suicide attempt, was cutting himself and wanted to buy a gun. A mental health counselor advises against involuntarily committing Cruz. The high school says it will conduct a threat assessment.

    ▪ Sept. 28, 2016: An investigator for the Florida Department of Children and Families rules Cruz is stable, despite “fresh cuts” on his arms. His mother, Lynda Cruz, says in the past he wrote a racial slur against African Americans on his book bag and had recently talked of buying firearms.

    ▪ Sept. 24, 2017: A YouTube user named “nikolas cruz” posts a comment stating he wants to become a “professional school shooter.” The comment is reported to the FBI in Mississippi, which fails to make the connection to Cruz in South Florida.

    ▪ Nov. 1, 2017: Katherine Blaine, Lynda Cruz’s cousin, calls BSO to report that Nikolas Cruz had weapons and asks that police recover them. A “close family friend” agrees to take the firearms, according to BSO.

    ▪ Nov. 29, 2017: The Palm Beach County family that took in Cruz after the death of his mother calls the Palm Beach Sheriff’s Office to report a fight between him and their son, 22. A member of the family says that Cruz had threatened to “get his gun and come back” and that he has “put the gun to others’ heads in the past.” The family does not want him arrested once he calms down.

    ▪ Nov. 30, 2017: A caller from Massachusetts calls BSO to report that Cruz is collecting guns and knives and could be a “school shooter in the making.” A BSO deputy advises the caller to contact the Palm Beach sheriff.

    ▪ Jan. 5, 2018: A caller to the FBI’s tip line reports that Cruz has “a desire to kill people” and could potentially conduct a school shooting. The information is never passed on to the FBI’s office in Miami.

    ▪ Feb. 14, 2018: Nikolas Cruz attacks Stoneman Douglas High. Peterson, the school’s resource officer, Scot Peterson, draws his gun outside the building where Cruz is shooting students and staff. He does not enter.

    “Black people have begged, prayed, petitioned, demonstrated, and everything else to get the racist power structure of America to right the wrongs which have historically been perpetuated against black people. All of these efforts have been answered by more repression, deceit and hypocrisy. As the aggression of the racist American government escalates in Vietnam, the police agencies of America escalate the oppression of black people throughout the ghettoes of America. Vicious police dogs, cattle prods, and increased patrols have become familiar sights in black communities. City Hall turns a deaf ear to the pleas of black people for relief from this increasing terror.”

    And perhaps think twice about condemning the FBI for not doing anything about the kid who shot up the school in Florida. The idea of "he seems like he might do something bad, so we have to arrest him" is not one I want US law enforcement taking up in its present form.
    And according to Florida law enforcement, the standard for involuntarily committing someone with mental health issues is the "Baker Act" and to a one they all say he didn't qualify.

    This is a complicated issue, about which we don't really know jack shit because the goddamn CDC has been prevented from studying it since 1996.

    It says a lot about the Republican party that they are more afraid of the possible detrimental effects of some biased science on the profits of a $1.35 billion a year industry that funds their campaigns and threatens to primary them if they step out of line than they want to do anything about a problem that kills more than 30,000 US citizens each year.

    So all of those shooting statistics you brain-wizards like to post here every fucking day? Yeah, those are much higher than they have to be because the goddamn Republicans are cowards who are afraid of finding out how to prevent them.

No little Boricua boy ever gets killed playing with the gun dad foolishly neglected to lock up? I find it hard to believe that only the career criminals misuse guns where you live.

    And sadly, if there haven’t yet been any school shootings in PR, it is probably only a matter of time.

    Riiiiiight. The cops let those kids die so that the Democrats could campaign on gun control. TOTALLY plausible.

    ”The NRA is the only civil rights organization that will defend the rights of every single American regardless of party affiliation.”

    But not regardless of race, apparently. Just ask the family of Philando Cruz. A cop shot him down for being a gun owner, and there was nothing but crickets from the NRA.

    And that’s because the NRA is a conservative entity, and in America, conservative=pro-cop/anti-black.

    They should be more honest and change their name to the NCGRA: the National Caucasian Gun Rights Association.

    I agree! It was so unfair they didn’t even let the dead kids speak at the protest! So mean!

    This is a very interesting thread from someone very familiar on the official government policies that had been implemented in Broward County that led to their complete inability to stop this tragedy:

    https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/966854507744374784.html

    >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

    It turns out that the Miami-Dade and Broward County public school districts were in cahoots with the Obama Administration, the NAACP and various other race lobbies to eliminate the non-existent school-to-prison pipeline. That’s why the Nutbar’s many warning signs were blown off, that’s why there’s a delay between reality and recording in their schools’ security camera systems (giving school officials enough time to cover up problems and hit delete), and, in summation, it’s why there are seventeen dead bodies.

  101. Stoopid fucking wingnuts miss the main point in all these shootings. They all have in common one thing- guns. You need less guns, not more to help stop the slaughter. Ban assault weapons as they are known today. If you can't kill a deer with three or four shots, why waste another 25? The problem is you don't concentrate on making a clean kill. You want to hose the surrounding battlefield with lead like Rambo would.

    Then fuck your supposed 2nd amendment rights to be armed like the fucking Marines.

    But I’ve just gotta know, do you think she would have left PR in the dark for an indefinite amount of time? Because I think she would have made sure US citizens there had electricity within a month tops.

    Stroke or no stroke, the US and most certainly PR would have been MUCH better off with her than what we ended up with.

    The thing about "mike from iowa" is... I think he's actually stupid enough to believe what he's saying.

    > Stoopid fucking wingnuts miss the main point in all these shootings. They all have in common one thing- guns.

    Stoopid fucking mike misses the main point in all the genocides of the 20th century:  disarmed victim populations.  He also misses that the Coward Co. sheriff's deputies had FOUR people on-scene and they all refused to go in to confront the shooter.

    > You need less guns, not more to help stop the slaughter.

    You need police agencies willing to commit weird people for mental-health evaluation during at least 1 out of 39 calls to their home.  That would have been sufficient to put Nikolas Cruz on a "no guns for you" list.  But nobody did it.

    > Ban assault weapons as they are known today.

    We had an "assault weapons ban" for 10 years.  It did nothing.  Almost no crimes are committed with rifles, and that was true before, during and after the ban.

    There's a few rifle shootings in Chicago but the vast majority of blacks shot by criminals are shot with handguns.  Rifles are mostly a white thing, and whites don't shoot blacks with them.  Mike is so cavalier about whites being shot most of the time, what's different about this incident?

    Oh, right.  He was TOLD to be outraged by the propaganda organs which do his thinking for him.  Without them, he wouldn't know what to do, say or think.

    I agree that for the most part, politicians are politicians. But let’s be clear here, one party HAS done more than the other in support of minorities and the poor, and that’s the Dems.

    That Arming Teacher Thing …

    February 24, 2018 By: Juanita Jean Herownself

    Yep. It happened in Utah.

    A teacher in Utah accidentally shot herself in the leg Thursday inside an elementary school building. In the bathroom of the teacher’s lounge. She’s a sixth grade teacher.

    State law allows individuals to obtain a concealed-weapons permit and carry firearms onto school campuses, following the completion of a safety training course.

    Obviously she did not listen at the training course. Nor did she do her homework. And the dog ate her good sense.

    Last week a professor at Idaho State University shot himself in the foot as he was strolling across campus.

    Maybe Wayne LaPierre can come up with a better solution. A solution that doesn’t, you know, require guns.

    Let's throw more fuel on an already out of control fire. Stoopid fucking wasicu wasteys!!

  109. The final report concluded the ban’s success in reducing crimes committed with banned guns was “mixed.” Gun crimes involving assault weapons declined. However, that decline was “offset throughout at least the late 1990s by steady or rising use of other guns equipped with [large-capacity magazines].”

    Ultimately, the research concluded that it was “premature to make definitive assessments of the ban’s impact on gun crime,” largely because the law’s grandfathering of millions of pre-ban assault weapons and large-capacity magazines “ensured that the effects of the law would occur only gradually” and were “still unfolding” when the ban expired in 2004.

  110. Let's hire stoopid fucking Anymoose to stand around and hold armed teachers at gunpoint to ensure they run right out and confront an active shooter, like deputies didn't do.

    Brave little wasicu wastey Anymoose can be a hero like he reckons hisself to be. Put your life on the line, SFAnymoose. Force them teachers to be brave. You can do it. You can even wear pink or some other color to identify you as a non-combatant to the shooter and the cops. If you get wasicu wasted anyway, too fucking bad. You should've had more guns.

    Now you admit even armed teachers do NOT shoot students even when they screw up.  So how's this a problem for student safety again?

    > Anymoose made that up.

    Observing things you implicitly claim but which aren't supported by the facts is not making things up.  It's merely pointing out that you're going through life in a stupor and can't follow the rules of logical inference.  Being in a stupor is the state of being stupid.
