Sheriff should have resigned the first day
There are reports of two shooters in the school. Perhaps a grain of prudence was involved in not bursting in without knowing where the two were?
This clearly means that people should be expected by government entities to protect themselves when they have "skin in the game". Yet, government folks willfully disarm The People, guaranteeing that they become victims under such circumstances. If conservatives were smart, they would be using this tragedy and the one years ago at Columbine to press for reinstatement of Second Amendment Rights for all situations. Teachers who wish to carry a weapon should be allowed to do so.
Conservatives need to take the initiative to present this case, even if WE must start throwing paint on people. Conservatives don't seem to care enough about anything except to BLOG BLOG BLOG. Action, never, it seems.
Kenny Rogers would be ashamed of them
“Coward Of Broward County”
Everyone considered him
The coward of the county
He’d never stood one single time
To prove the county wrong
His mama called him Scotty
But folks just called him yellow
Still I always prayed
That we read that baby wrong
My nephew called with seconds left
That good boy bled in Parkland
He asked, then begged for Peterson
“Get him to save the rest”
I still recall my fateful call
I firmly said to Scotty
“Peterson, one life is over,
The rest have just begun.”
“Please save them son,
Don’t just turn your tail and run
Don’t run away from trouble ‘cause you can.
And it will mean you’re weak
If you hide and act all meek
And I hope you’re good enough to understand
Sometimes you have to fight to be a man.”
There’s someone for everyone
And Scotty’s friends were like him
In their eyes he didn’t have to prove he was a man
One day while they were working
A psycho freak came killing
He took shots at children
And there was seventeen of them
Scotty moved far from the door
When he saw those children dying
The torn clothes, the shattered bones
Were more than he could stand
He crawled behind a pillar
And though my call had ended
As those shots echoed through the school
He heard my words again
“Please save them son,
Don’t just turn your tail and run
Don’t run away from trouble ‘cause you can.
And it will mean you’re weak
If you hide and act all meek
And I hope you’re good enough to understand
Sometimes you have to fight to be a man.”
The psycho freak just laughed at them
When he walked out of the school house
The Broward cops blanched
As they all backed up some more
Scotty scooted down and said
“I hope that psycho’s leavin’.”
And you could hear more kids drop
As Scotty hid and sobbed some more
Twenty years of crawling
Had made Scot quite the expert
He wasn’t holding nothing back
His fear just made him cry
Scotty left those children
Not a victim still was standing
He said, “Better them than me,”
As he watched the last one die
Then he called me to say
“I couldn’t save a one
I can’t do what must be done
I run away from trouble when I can
Now you can think I’m weak
I sure did show my yellow streak
Bud, I should hope you understand
Sometimes I gotta hide. I’m not a man.”
I’m not an expert at forgiveness, but I usually try. Scot Peterson is an exception. I hope every hour of every day for the rest of his life includes reminders of all the lives that were lost while he hid and then lied about it. Perhaps God will forgive him, if that pathetic coward truly repents, but I probably will never have the strength or desire to do so. He accepted a responsibility, took money for doing that job, and then turned chicken when innocent children needed him the most.
CONSERVATIVE TALKIES RESPONDING TO THE MEDIA’S WAR ON THE NRA, GUNS, AND THE 2ND AMENDMENT ONLY AIDS THEM IN CONCEALING THE POLICY FAILURES AS A NATIONAL ISSUE WHICH PERMITTED PARKLAND TO OCCUR
WAS PARKLAND AN IDYLLIC SCHOLASTIC SETTING OR A NIGHTMARE
Only an investigation will either dispel or prove that with those policies enforced. Students had all kinds of disciplinary problems (drugs, thefts fights etc) when attending classses there. Were scholastic standards lowered to fit fed DOJ grants ?
WHERE WAS THE DEMAND FOR FEDERAL AND STATE INVESTIGATIONS ????
It was not guns or the NRA Its policies which had cops standing outside while killing was going on or some nut getting a gun the FBI knew he wasnt suppose to... Plus a whole raft of other stuff
WAS THE DEMAND FOR STATE AND FED INVESTIGATION ON THE POLICIES WHICH CAUSED THIS NOT CONSIDERED BY FLORIDA POLS BECAUSE THE RESULT WOULD BE LAW SUITS AGAINST THE STATE ???
