You are making the common assumption that minors have constitutional rights. Would you give a two year old a dozen felt markers to draw with in your home, to demonstrate your support of the 1st. Amendment being conferred upon a minor? How about giving your two year old a pistol to play with under your argument that a minor, and that includes a two year old, has constitutional rights. You're not conservative, you're just not thinking.
When "children" were not thought of as possessing any rights, and their parents were in charge of them, not the schools, they had fewer babies, drugs and guns. Now that the Left has fooled the ignorant Right into believing that the new born posses all rights in the Bill of Rights, parents are powerless and babies are having babies.
Here's the deal. Minors have NO RIGHTS, they are, however, A PROTECTED CLASS. As such, their rights reside with their parents until the minor reaches the age of majority as a healthy, educated and polite adult to fully exercise their Constitutional rights and responsibilities.
Too many parents, these days, think that their kids "have rights" and so do the kids. However, the only power over children is with the state. You "conservatives" got suckered by the Left on the subject and scope of "rights" and you gave your kids rights all away.
Agreed - but that doesn't address the question of trumping the 2nd amendment. Those rights belong to the parents and are conferred to the children. I argue for preserving the right and abolishing the school. Schools are not a right nor are they a legitimate government institution. The real problem in this story is that the kids were at a compulsory school not they traded a legal rifle.
