This really got my attention. Yes we need child control not gun control. First off, ALL schools would have their students decked out in school outfits and not designer name shoes. If the both parents of the student worked, or it the singel parent worked, then there should be holdover of these students after school, at school to assure that they completed their extra assignements for the next day class. Teachers are not going to get off the hook either.
Tenure goes out the door.
Now that I have got the teachers, parents and children's attention. Lets talk guns. Treat the children as adults when a firearm is involved at school or off school grounds. While I am on the soap box - lets get back to teaching the children while they are in school. Get away from high tech and put the brains of the hired teachers to work teaching our children.
