The madness will not end until we grasp the following truths:
1. There are hundreds of millions of guns in the US.
2. Even assuming for the sake of argument that it would be a desirable thing to do, no gun control law can eliminate all or even a small fraction of those guns.
3. Evil men will always be able to get a gun.
4. Schools are soft targets full of defenseless people.
5. We can’t hire enough cops to guard all of those people.
6. We need to equip and train school staff who are willing to do so to defend themselves and the children in their care.
7. Don’t tell me it can’t be done. It is being done in Israel.
Fight me. Show me that one of those statements is false.
