Well, I agree that it is just a precautionary measure. We are all still on edge every time we send our kids to school or go bowling or to a movie. I would want them to do everything in their power to protect my child.
This is not about the gun. I wonder how many guns there are around those schools?! It takes one idiot to freak out all of us. If more of the good people had guns, there would be less bad people with guns, I assure you.
