I don't think LaPierre bombed at all. I erad the speech in its entirety and think it was well written and focused. I would not give a inch, not one and the media that fabricate information, as with the travon martin affair and others, need to be held accountable for their lies as well as held accountable for the effects of the misinformation they spew.
OK, so Isreal does not think that armed guards in schools would help - but, Isreal is a armed society and I believe thelast time some nut job in Isreal started to go berserk, he got shot on the spot. Same effect. If teachers cannot muster the guts it takes to arm up then put armed police in the schools, but as others say, if they can't get a gun they will use something else.
As for Buffalo, NY - if someone had even bothered to read what that nut job wrote he would have died in prison not after killing some first responders, as well as hi sister. The liberals who push for lighter sentences (17 years for hammering his mother to death when he should have gotten the rope), and the media effect on 'popular opinion' which often sways the weak minds of politicians and prosecutors need to be held accountable.
Maybe, just maybe, if we start publishing the names and addresses of editors and reporters who fail to print and publish the truth, they will receive enough of the same treatment they want doled out to those they think are criminal so as to possibly look for another career field....... now that would be a nice thought.
