Why would you close school?

Maybe because the lives of the kids attending are more important than how other people in other parts of the country feel about going about normal business.

Shouldn't we cancel school everywhere because kids are hit by cars on the way, or die in playground accidents?

Far more by orders of magnitude than this sniper has shot, which is one in a million.

One in a million you will be killed this week in a car wreck, or slipping on a banana peel. You gonna hide under your bed?

One school was targeted out of thousands because the shooter was "challenged" by a police spokesman trying to make mommies feel safe about taking their kids back to school. One child was shot out of millions on the east coast. Since then no kids have been targeted.

Now they think they are going to make the kids safe by closing down a few schools when in fact they may be challenging the shooter to "prove" that he can take out children whenever he wants even if they close the schools.

Whatever makes you feel better I guess.

Damn, I agree with you. Time to slit my wrists.
