Here's your sign
« on: August 24, 2013, 01:17:21 PM »
A private Christian school in Arkansas has an armed and trained staff and posts signs that announce that the Staff is armed and trained. Any attempt to harm children will be met with deadly force.

The consensus of the DUmmies seems to be that the old standard Gun Free Zone signs are working just fine as a deterrent against school shootings.

The rich bitch doesn't express an opinion, unless the cut and paste job counts.

Arkansas School Posts Sign Warning That Teachers Are Armed, Gunmen Will Be ‘Met With Deadly Force’


 
School Posts Sign Warning That Teachers Are Armed, Gunmen Will Be ‘Met With Deadly Force’
BY ANNIE-ROSE STRASSER ON AUGUST 23, 2013 AT 9:01 AM

A school in Arkansas wants any potential shooters to know: Its teachers are armed, and ready for a showdown.

Since the Arkansas Christian Academy is a private school, it is not subject to the rules for public schools in the state that prevent teachers from carrying firearms. To that end, the school has between one and seven staff members carrying a weapon on any given day, according to Pastor Perry Black, who this week posted signs that say “Staff is armed and trained. Any attempt to harm children will be met with deadly force.”

2. Idiocy compounded.

First, the idea of arming teachers is totally nuts, as the insurance cos. have made fully clear.

But to cap it off with these warning signs? Any potential nutcase is warned: Shoot the teachers first.
Do they usually shoot the teachers last Jack leg radical?

5. This is the equivalent of Bush's "BRING 'EM ON!" exhortation to the terrorists.

Stupid.

30. It can't be any less effective than a sign that says " this school is a gun-free zone."

I think it's a fallacy that shooters only choose gun-free zones. They typically choose targets that have some personal meaning to them, a school where they were bullied, a political target, etc. But there is no indication that this sign will attract a shooter anymore than a gun-free sign will repel one.

It doesn't matter to these idiots.  The policy could stop three shootings a day for a year, and their dilapidated mindset would not change.  They are psychopaths.

Liberal thinking is a two-legged stool and magical thinking is one of the legs, the other is a combination of self-loating and misanthropy.  To understand it, you would have to be able to sit on that stool while juggling two elephants, an anvil and a fragmentation grenade, sans pin.

Yeah but when they do, they last a hell of a lot longer in a gun free zone.

I may not lock my doors while sitting at a red light and a black man is near, but I sure as hell grab on tight to my wallet when any democrats are close by.
