Showing Original Post only (View all)IF we can secure our airports, we can secure our schools [View all]
While the TSA gets a bad rap, they have done an excellent job of keeping our airports safe.
Maybe we should look at expanding the TSA to protect our nations schools. STSA?
Expensive? I'm sure. But nothing that a tax on guns and bullets wouldn't solve and our kids are worth it.

There's no shootings at Supermax Prisons! Maybe we should have Kindergarten there.

Be sure to arrive at school at least two hours before your first class.
