Nothing has changed. We need metal detectors and guards at the front door.

Adam

Yes. Not more guns

Jack L

I doubt if arming the teachers will work. More security at the entrances would be a better solution IF we could get the funding to do that.

The Constitution vests the power in the legislative branch to ensure decisions on war are made democratically, rather than by a single person.

The fact that legislators would use this for political gain and schools would use this as a financial game (teaching to the tests so they get an A rating, which gives them more money, wash-rinse-repeat). is a no from me. Didn't they learn something from the failure of the No Child Left Behind?
