Atlanta • A student opened fire at his middle school Thursday afternoon, wounding a 14-year-old in the neck before an armed officer working at the school was able to get the gun away, police said.

Wait, didn't the anti-gun crowd say having armed guards at schools was a bad idea and wouldn't work??

Old Dutch Junkies Retire Comfortably In this old-folks home, drug users who are "beyond rehabilitation" can do their thing in peace. The Woodstock old-age home in the Netherlands might not have the youth and music of its namesake, but it does have the drugs. The center was opened in The Hague in December 2008 to keep elderly drug users off the streets and provide them with free room, board and methadone treatments. Treatments are optional—residents are even allowed limited use of hard drugs. “This is real freedom,” says 65-year-old resident William, smoking a ball of cocaine. “I like it here. Here there is no police watching you.”

If one is at all concerned about the risk, the solution should be allowing the good guys to have guns for self-defense.

Civilian concealed carry is even more cost-effective due to the element of surprise to the criminal. The recent Oregon case of a concealed carrier stopping a shooter at a mall illustrates that in spades.

The kidnappers hid the bus in a drainage slough, and drove the children and bus driver around in two vans for 11 hours before forcing them to climb into a hole in the ground. After passing through the hole, the children and their driver found themselves trapped in the interior of a buried moving van. Although they did not know it, their place of confinement was in a quarry located in Livermore, California.

It's right on the drugs' disclaimer labels, usually 1-7% of users / clinical test subjects "exhibit suicidal and/or homicidal urges." That's a significant number now that there are so many prescriptions being handed out.

It isn't like in movies, they are heavy and uncomfortable. Nevertheless, having appropriately trained educators be allowed to carry, I'll support that if you give me the rest of the reasonable rules.

I walk to multiple parks a day with my dog to do exersizes, and I almost never see any cops or guards. In fact, the only time I ever see police, is if the local canine unit sees me, he pulls in and we let the dogs socialize.

Sorry, but there are trade offs, and that falls into the reasonable category. The same crazy person can buy an illegal gun or use his/her car to kill. Or even kill his mother to get guns, like the latest infamous shooter had done.

Not everyone has a collection of half a dozen guns designed for each specific purpose. .22 tend to be the first gun, and many many women gun owners stop there. robertoaribas says Alright, I'll go with this one.

That's because you live in a concealed carry state where private gun ownership is prevalent. Try stop in the big cities where private gun ownership is severely restricted and the population is brainwashed to detest guns, and you will see what I was talking about.

I suspect the unloaded requirement is for safety as guns get swapped from hand to hand, and it would be hard to keep track of which one is loaded which is not as the buyers test out the triggers! At schools, unless we are talking about a shooting class, there's no reason for people to be handing guns from one to another regularly or testing out triggers!

That's exactly the result from the kind of mentality that nobody should have guns without government costume or government permission. The Nazi police state was exactly built on outlawing private gun ownership plus mandatory government-run paramilitary training of the young. Guns in the hands of private individuals for the purpose of self-defense -- GOOD! Guns in the hands of organized hirarchical groups -- BAD! because power corrupts, government costumes never prevented hirarchical groups turning into gangs of thugs.

For practical reasons, requiring all guns that get shown as tradable goods remain unloaded during the show is rational, just like gasoline station owners have a right to ban smoking on their premise. As a property owner, I would never put up a sign that says "gun free zone" as an invitation to criminals.

Do I have the right to enter your bedroom at night and talk your wife into having sex with me or just talk at all as freedom of speech right? Of course not! Likewise, nobody has 2nd amendment right in your house either unless you allow it. Gun show grounds owners have the same rights to visiting guests. So he/she has every right to tell people whether to unload their guns or to unload their guns on a target as part of a demo during the gun show. Public schools are public grounds, therefore the right to bear arms is a right for each individual.

Courtrooms and airport terminals have armed guards ensuring security in exchange for disarming the average person. BTW, the full disarming requirement is relatively recent. Not much more than a decade ago, people were able to go to airport terminals (and perhaps even some courtrooms) armed.

Drunken personal attacks, not so much. I haven't imbibed any alcohol this entire past week. You have been avoiding presenting any substantive counter argument but prefering personal attacks all this evening.

Not much more than a decade ago, people were able to go to airport terminal Try 45 years. Reality says Constitutional rights are protected in public places by default. Any restriction would have to have rational and compelling reasons. A big fat "gun free zone" sign inviting criminals to shoot at the defenseless public while providing no alternative forceful protection to the public onsite does not constitute a good or compelling reason. You might want to study some case law hombre. Why do you think they had to sneak in legislation permitting guns in national parks just a few years back?

You have been avoiding presenting any substantive counter argument but prefering personal attacks all this evening. There's nothing to counter. All you've posted is what I assumed was drunken gibberish, but apparently it was sober gibberish. You said I would father unintelligent "loser" children and that I have a "pee brain" (does that mean there is urine in my brain?), and you're complaining about personal attacks? Har - are you for real? By the way, I would be careful about questioning the intelligence of others if I couldn't even spell or construct a grammatically correct sentence.
