Why would you close school? It does not make sense. Chicken little...to the tenth power. You can not let this sniper shut the country down. This is insane.

We can and we will because we are soft and pampered. When one thinks of the Blitz of London and how they continued with life during that. Are we capable of doing the same anymore?

Are we capable of doing the same anymore?

We ARE. But we need some TIME to get organized. This is still brand new.

We are NOT capable anymore, to answer your question. Many of the posts here tonight prove that.

I thought the Liberals were the "mommy-party", but tonight, I dont know.

I'm not arguing one way or the other for school closings, but during the Blitz, many if not most, children were evacuated from London to the countryside.
