The purpose of the law has *nothing* to do with school safety and *everything* to do with the cultural genocide of the gun culture in the United States.
It is all about teaching young people that guns are *evil* and only *evil* people would be near them.
It is a disgrace that this law was not repealed when the Republicans had the House, the Senate, and the Presidency
You did know that the reason this happens is because there is a Federal law that withdraws federal funds from schools if the states do not enforce this, didn’t you?
The law has been a complete and utter disaster.

Every time the feds give $X to the states in “optional” block grants, it’s an admission they have overtaxed us (their masters, both morally and intellectually) $X. Otherwise they could mandate what they’re bribing the states for. Therefore, since the feds have admitted overtaxing by that amount, the states should just garnish that amount from federal tax payments originating in that state, and ignore the mandate anyway. They’re being bribed to tyrannize their own citizens with those citizens’ money on issues the feds admit is none of their business. How much clearer does it need to be before they do something?
