I wonder whether muggers join a group and then lose interest for lack of interest - and whatever threads have been started just sit there gathering dust, as quiet as the grave. Seems a lost opportunity to me, but then it takes at least two to tango, and to keep it up.

Some lasted 17 minutes in honor of the 17 people killed one week earlier at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland.Students at many of the protests called for stronger gun control and said they’re taking action to protect schools because Congress hasn’t.Hundreds of students in Maryland left class to rally outside the U.S. Capitol, some carrying signs saying “Make Our Schools Safer.”Students at Simon Kenton High School near Cincinnati marched around their school chanting “Never again.”More walkouts are already being planned for March 14, a month after the Florida shooting.Students participate in a protest against gun violence February 21, 2018 on Capitol Hill in Washington, DC. less

The pictures are not photoshopped and this story can be found at many different sources including Fox News. I would think you would NOT need notes to remind yourself to show compassion.

Does anyone know why this would be a useful feature?
Bring back the Knights of the Round Table. Armorize everyone. Every kid too. it will be good for them. How much would kid body armor weigh? Cost is irrelevant.

After shooter is dispensed with and the other bodies and blood cleaned up the kids can go right back to the lesson. Our new normal.

What gun does teacher have and where does teacher carry it and how effective will teacher be with that fully automatic weapon aimed at her/him? 76% of teachers are female. I don't know how many females are gun people but I doubt that all 76% of them are. Does donjohn KNOW thst? How many Annie Oakley's are there? Will teachers get the trainjing on their own time at their own expense? How much will it cost to train the unguns to shoot guns? Aren't we setting up a perfectly dreadful scenario of more deaths more quickly? How does a teacher anticipate the movements of the shooter? Inquiring minds wanna know. The donjohn is never curious about anything. less

Is there a limit to arming folks so they can kill to prevent others from killing? There is something very odd about that to me. Kill or be killed. Ah another question. SIGH

A gun has got to represent something else besides a metal device that takes lives. What "something else" is that? A friend, a lover, a protector, a mentor, a safe place?

They thought circles around us and captured millions who fell right into their traps. Americans think they are smart but apparently are not or this degree of espionage and sabotage would not have happened. It happened with tacit consent of the pawns who were moved wherever the Troll Farm wanted to move them. Easy pickings. Piece of cake. They never questioned the validity of the info they repeated and believed and supported. They never questioned the fake rallies and the fake blogs and the fake internet accounts of fake "Americans" that led them all by their noserings to the conclusion we saw. Utter confusion and duplicity unknowingly or knowingly. Does it matter which? Next time? It will be exactly the same. FB and Twitter and Instagram dupes will be sucked up into it again and they will do what they always do. Believe the partis... less

That requires too much filling in blanks, dotting i's and crossing t's and extrapolating beyond the written word and they just aren't capable of doing that. So spell it out. Leave no doubt. Make it very very very clear for them.

Can you use the same excuse religious folks do who don't want to serve same-gender people or provide birth control material? "My religion made me do it"? :(
