Pundits on Fox, arguably the most Conservative of the news deliverers and pre-digestors for news public consumption today demonstrated their own failure to understand the "gun situation". Just now as they pretty much universally showed that their own support for our gun rights is strictly ideological--lacking the temperance that only experience living safely with legal guns can instill. As I have been pointing out for some time, they are from NYC where they have been deprived of such an experience. They are subject to the propaganda and myths that surround them even if they DO ideologically support the pro-gun sentiment. They simply do not know all the correct terms, the nuances of the "arguments", and least of all the actual facts and true stats. It is easy for uninformed people to be hoodwinked and for them to buy into the anti arguments when they don't themselves know the score. This is dad, because, although they are usually well-informed about most issues, being subject to the shroud of media gun-stupidity, they are just wrong on their conclusions. Garbage-in, garbage-out. It is obvious that they simply did not understand the logic and sanity behind the NRA news-conference. the first thing they said was, "Armed guards are too expensive." and "You can't guard every place in America." The details of one of the alternatives was that volunteers are already prepared and ready to do it as a free service to the schools. This was apparently lost on them. The second answer is that schools are a special situation; they exclusively house our children, who must be there--no choice--and those special teachers and administrators who have chosen this fairly thankless work--who are captive-SPECIFICALLY KNOWN TO BE WITHOUT PROTECTION. this uniquely makes them a target for every chicken-squat who has a bad day. Guns are not the only danger to them. It is incomprehensible why armed guards are not already there. Ideologues are too quick to make their ideological arguments which do zero good protecting our kids while thumbing their Liberal noses at the only solution that is a sure fix--to our children being shot at school.
