Where in the heck do these wacko's come from? Something has to be done to protect our children while they're in schools. I don't care if they have to bring out police or national guard protection, but we have the responsibility to insure their safety while in our schools.
I wonder though is it really something that can be done by simply putting up barricades or metal detectors, etc, or is it something more culturally entrenched? I think there is a far greater problem at foot that simply spruking tighter gun laws, or increased school security. There is something seriously going wrong here....
