Gun Control Debate
This recently arised to our governments concern yet once again, after such a tragic even that happened in Virginia. I personally am against what they are trying to do with the gun control, If we start changing all of our amendments that our founding fathers gave us, we are going to end up being a dictatorship government. (The past few elections, I believe we aren't a democracy anymore) If we had a majority of our teachers trained in firearm safty, and was able to have a fire arm on them in the school, do you think so many innocent lives would have been taking at VT? What are your thoughts on this.

I agree with what is said about people's rights to bear arms. Teachers could be trained in some situation type tactic for disarming a gunman/woman, terrorist or other type criminal (situation allowing for this). For a teacher to actually carry a firearm in a school (just in case), would be very wrong. Aren't these schools supposed to have their own security patrols ( escorting students to their cars after dark etc)? They should be equipped with stun guns at least, but not pistols. Let's be honest too, it's not these type of events happen every week, well at least not yet.

is it just me or is it totally mad this right to bare arms. surely this law was written into the constitution in a time of danger and uncertainty. is it worth all the bloodshed just to keep a tradition in place that is dated. why would anyone cherish the right to carry around a gun?

I see your point about that stun guns, I do think that would be a better option than a hand gun, and your also right about this doesnt happen every week. But when they do happen they are just getting deadlier, more innocent lives lost. I also thought that to about having to talk student to their cars after dark, yeah right. I went to Art Institute in Pittsburgh classes let out about 1030 atnight and they didnt walk any of the women to their cars at all.

It raises awful problems, but it certainly isn't a bad thing for our leaders to fear the public just a little, right? So whether it's a hopelessly outdated ideal or not, the gun and the right to bear arms has been mythologized in the heart and mind of Americana.
