We know it can happen anywhere. Communities have to come together. Responsible adults have to work together to prevent violence from spilling over into our schools. Guns have no place in school. Let me repeat.
Guns have no place in our schools.
To me, as the kids would say, this is a no brainer. But unfortunately there will be those who will try to derail the Children's Gun Violence Prevention Act of 1998. Already we have in hand the results of the Gun-Free School Act of 1994. That law demanded a one year expulsion for carrying weapons onto school grounds. We know from the U.S. Education Department that the ban on guns has had a tremendous effect already.
