Uhhhh...when last I looked, this is not Russia.....
However I might add the REAl PROBLEM IS THAT TERRORISTS CAN WALK ACROSS OUR SOUTHERN AND NORTHERN BORDERS
That is what the administartion is NOT ADDRESSING
Banning any gun etc etc is not the solution
I didn't follow the incident closely, but my guess from the pictures I saw is that most died as a result of a gasoline fire ignited by explosives. Firearms are not the most effective weapon for mass murder.
The defensive tactic which will work, and the only one that will work, is immediate counter-attack when the threat is recognized. The Israelis know this.
How do the Israelis know this? Because six million or so Jews allowed themselves to be gathered up, grouped behind barbed wire, gassed to death clutching their children, and bulldozed into mass graves; mostly without a defensive shot fired.
The Russian teachers owed it to their students to be armed and ready to repel an attack immediately. It is the tactic which prevented Flight 93 from being used as a weapon. If Todd Beamer and friends had realized the nature of the attack, they would have rushed the box-cutter armed fanatics earlier and perhaps only a few lives would have been lost.
Schools in the US are sitting ducks. They are one of the liberals' defense-free zones and the results here can be almost indistinguishable from the results in Russia.
Please tell me what you think prevents the attack in Russia from taking place here. And please tell me what we should do about such attacks. Anti-gunners are not going to like the answer.
