Wayne Lapierre of the National Rifle Association got grief from the “I Think I’m Smart Crowd” when he reiterated Bill Clinton’s idea of having armed guards in public schools as a more effective means of making them safe than gun bans.
The Sidwell Friends School in Washington, D.C. where President Obama’s daughters go has 11 armed guards as standard operating procedure, Brietbart.com has revealed. In other words, this does not include the Secret Service protection the Obama girls get.
Note Sidwell is a Quaker school.
In other ironic gun-grabbing news, David Gregory of NBC, who was complaining of too few gun laws is facing charges after waving around a 30-round magazine to demonstrate his point on last week’s Meet the Press. The possession of the magazine is illegal in Washington D.C. where the show is produced.
What parents have to come to understand is that their children are going to be most safe and best treated in schools that they can fire.
