I would like to know where your other letters are opposing other school safety programs. And what about the driver's ed. If you read the paper then you have seen more headlines about car wrecks than shootings, accidental or intentional. I applaud the administrators who are willing to stand against ignorance and teach their students guns are a tool not a toy. We cannot let fear stand in the way of good judgment.
Isolation never equals protection.
Uh, Ms. Plew, if you feel that strongly about firearms, you may want to consider relocating. Like maybe to Japan, where they are not allowed. Living around Milford, you're absolutely surrounded by them. I was not aware that any school offered such a course until your letter. As you probably know, the state of Indiana now requires all young people to complete such a class in order to get a hunting license.
