I don't accept that.  There is got to be a way in America to stop kids from getting shot up.  Other countries have done it.

The problem really is in your mind.  Kids in schools getting shot up 1) is not a significant problem here in the US and 2) is easily solvable by not allowing 18 year old non-students with guns in the school.  There are other solutions as well, but let's just focus on these for now.

When parents entrust their kids to a school for an entire day, it is really up to the school to safeguard them against harm.  Ask yourself:

• Do schools lock up caustic chemicals so that kids don't get into them?
• Do schools have safeguards in place so that kids aren't playing too close to streets or in active parking lots
• If a school has a swimming pool, does it take measures to make sure that kids don't wonder into the pool and drown?

It isn't rocket science.  Had the school in Texas simply locked their doors like they were supposed to, the incident would never have happened.  There were so many stupid mistakes made, yet the gun-banners want to blame people who are responsible gun owners.  That's nonsense!
