Educating "Not Teachers", Endangering Children: The March of the Morons

A new low in the brain trust and politics.

Well, actually, nationally, our commitment to education sucks, if I may employ the vernacular. Income inequality rules in both public and private sectors. The quality of your schooling depends on money, plain and simple. But that's another rant. Don't even get me started on Betsy.

But this arming school employees movement? You are putting children at risk. Again. The income inequality thing is a slow death; dismal futures for the impoverished including high rates of incarceration. The misery has been documented over and over.

And now, this. Instant death.

People who know how to handle active shooter situations are five minutes away. Assault rifle killings get to double digits dead in a couple minutes. If I do the math, rather than get at the root of the destruction, the gun, I'm going to look at putting a doofus with a pea shooter and minimal training in the sights of a killer intent on killing?

Holy shit. Oh, and wait, as the article notes, what about the less-than-lethal incidents, when these idiots wade into a scrum and pull out their piece?

Have we forgotten Trayvon?

Yes, we have. Thanks, NRA and Marion Hammer.

If this does not define the term 'clusterfuck', then nothing ever will.
