CNN put on an atrocious spectacle last week, hosting a “town hall” production that was, as Fox News’ Tucker Carlson and the Chicago Tribune’s John Kass both remarked, a re-enactment of the Two Minutes’ Hate scene in George Orwell’s classic novel 1984. It was a remarkable example of shameless exploitation and ideological hate-mongering put on by the failing news network directed at the National Rifle Association. . . snip
The lesson of Parkland is that government doesn’t work. It doesn’t work because it’s too often run by political hacks, usually of a leftist variety, incapable of doing a proper job. We are, at the end of the day, on our own — and we must act accordingly.

Recommend heading to the article. It is a fast three-minute read and has some excellent links to other stories that "flush out" this article.
Guarding schools would be an imperative
Andrew Pollack who lost his daughter in the tragedy in Florida has called Scott Peterson, the SRO hiding outside the school, a coward. I am in complete agreement. The other deputies who hide behind their car while the gunman was still active inside are in the same category in my opinion. And their politically motivated sheriff is so busy covering for his department that I see no hope they will ever find the truth as long as he is in a position of authority.
The gun banners touted role models have been discredited.
They couldn’t protect kids and confiscating guns wouldn’t have led them to do their jobs better.
Oops!
She blamed a you-tube video, and he the NRA
I followed the link. It’s a good article. Dana’s doing a great job, and I hope she stays with it.
wait til it comes out about this program to cut down on “kids” being arrested and just letting the school handle it...federal grants are alotted and just like magic, the arrest of teens in the district fell 66% in one year....some obama hack from chicago became superintendant of broward schools in 2011 and introduced the program...this is gonna really get good.
I was reading another article (Conservative Treehouse?) the other day where the author had over time been able to piece together how Saint Trayvon (Matrin) the poor teen with "ice tea and skittles of MSM fiction" had had run-in, after run-in that would have gotten any of us jail time. But, because he was black the authorities looked the other way and the results speak for themselves.
Hopefully, this “rot” will be exposed and yet again we can try and reverse the moral decay that the Liberals have spread across our Republic.
“Sometimes you gotta fight when you’re a man.”
As details reveal 4 armed officers failed to engage this shooter, it further supports the notion that when seconds count...police are only minutes away.
We have a right to defend OURSELVES!
