I don't see the point of forcing children to go to school tomorrow.....they are justifiabily frightened.

And why are these children frightened?

Maybe because these days their faces are plastered in front of a television set, instead of outside getting some exercise?

Maybe because parents these days dont have the patience to explain to children that their odds of being shot are astronomical, and that they could just as easily win the state lottery?

Maybe because these days, we are a nation of wimps, who would trade our freedoms to insure a fresh supply of coffee beans for Starbucks?

Why dont we all just cower under the covers, and await our eventual destruction?

I don't think our children should be the cheese for the mouse/mice; mine aren't expendable.

I agree with you, and suggest that the Star Spangled Banner be rewritten to discard that nonsense about bravery. Those words described an entirely different species of Virginian.
