He tells us that a “gun-free zone” is safer for our kids, so I am SURE he just forgot to give Sidwell an executive order to get rid of the guards and the SS guys. He’ll take care of that oversight today, I bet. /s

The most dangerous place in America for a child is in its mothers womb. Second, is alone with her boyfriend.

School is the safest place in America for a child.

It’s because Sidwell Friends -- a Quaker school, by the way -- is defended by guards with loaded guns. In addition to the Secret Service with its Uzis and large ammo clips, Sidwell has its own security staff of 11.

Here we go again.

Yes, Sidwell has security, but some folks are making it sound like an armed camp. Not so. Sidwell has two campuses, both multi-building complexes with associated gyms and athletic fields. I've never been to the lower school campus, but my daughter has played and practiced soccer at the upper school campus. It has the look and feel of a small college campus, minus the dorms. Nice school.

If security shows up at 7:00 and stays until 9 or 10 p.m. (judging from soccer excursions, the upper school campus is active until well into the evening), you're talking two shifts. So you put a person at the gate to keep stray riff-raff from wandering in, and you have someone floating about the campus. Two campuses times two shifts times two people equals eight of your eleven security slots right there. The Director of Secuity makes nine. And we've not even touched night watchman or weekend coverage.

The point is, the place is not an armed fort. Yes, it has security, just as I walk past a desk lady in a security company uniform every morning in my building. Whether Sidwell security is armed or not, I've never noticed.

I'm not waving a flag for Sidwell; I'm just reacting to some of the commmentators who are leaning a bit heavily on the eleven person security staff and making it sound like there's a SWAT team somewhere on campus.

I’d like to send Obama or any of these idiots without a weapon in a dark alley with a Trayvon walking accross their way. THey would squelch like little pieces of crap that they are.

These people are a bunch of hypocrites, and so are the ones voting for them and supporting their initiatives.

I am sick of hearing the black person who knows a plantation is a gun free zone for them getting offended when the truth is told to them: you like that plantation, it’s where you belong or what, uh? You are offended like Obama or his girl Eric Holder?

The dark ages and alleys is where they are ushering themselves and the nation. All because of girly stupid emotions which are not yet affected by the reality.

This is so sick of a vanity display of political emotions, it is incredible that no one is capable of any wit or ability to express against it in any way.

And to hear leftist jews moralizing us and comforting them and themselves into this is utter bull sh!t.

Obama’s plans have nothing to do with schools or children.

... parents across America who are worrying about how to protect their school kids in the wake of the tragic shootings in Newtown...


Yeah, and I worry about my family being killed in a car accident every time I hear about one. One shooter in one classroom of the tens of thousands of schools in this country does not a trend make.

It is statistically zero. If I were a young man with young children, what would be on top of my agenda would be to ensure I can provide for their needs of my family, or them slipping in the bathtub. Now, if this explodes at least 100 fold, I would be at least a little more concerned. But that is clearly a long ways off.
