4063643188?profile=original NRA - Congress must pass a law putting armed police officers in every school in America

The NRA came out with a bold plan for congress to provide armed guards in all schools across the nation as a response to the tragic elementary school murders in Newtown, Connecticut, according to Fox News. National Rifle Association CEO Wayne LaPierre made it clear in a Washington D. C. Press Conference, Friday, December 21st that the only way to confront the issue of protecting the lives of school children, teachers and administrators is to not give an inch of ground to the future gunmen and gun control hysteria. Arm all the schools and protect the children is the answer!

LaPierre vividly pointed out, "The only thing that stops a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun!" His point resonates with the tens of thousands of trained, unemployed combat veterans, retired law enforcement officials, and even military reservists across America who are potential resources. These Americans are more than willing and able to help insure the safety and security of the nation’s 132,656
 schools.

According to the Center for Education Reform’s latest 2010 report, there are approximately 55,235,000 children in enrolled in K-12 schools in America. This represents millions of potential targets for an unbalanced gunman like Adam Lantz to harm or murder innocent children, teachers and administrators. This is not an option that America’s parents or society should be willing to accept.

The NRA’s new plan to provide training for all public school teachers and students to help deal with safety and security in the school is far more acceptable than waiting for President Obama and his gun-czar task force head Vice President Biden to find more punitive ways to erode gun rights in America.

The biggest barrier to preventing escalating gun violence in American schools by shooters determined to kill innocent people, is a refusal by the mainstream media to acknowledge these murderers are domestic terrorists.

When Adam Lantz cold bloodedly murdered his mother, Nancy Lantz in her bed and shot and killed 20 children and 6 adults, he was a domestic terrorist. When James Holmes walked into an Aurora, Colorado movie theater in July fully dressed in protective body armor and armed with a Glock handgun, shotgun and assault rifle, he was a domestic terrorist.

So would make perfect logic to monitor and proactively apprehend these gunmen, who appear to be suffering from some type of psychotic break, and have demonstrated previous potential for deadly violence behavior. A national database to monitor these individuals is a useful first step when they send up red flags for habitually engaging in violent threatening behavior.

America needs more than a simple as well as predictable knee-jerk reaction to attack legitimate gun owners. America needs a true counter-terrorism response to this growing threat. A national registry of high-risk individuals like the Adam Lantz’s and James Holmes of the nation should be part of a national database, just as sex-offenders as well as potential terrorist threats are monitored.

  • I do NOT agree that we need to post police at every school. They're schools, not prisons! How the heck is one guard to watch the whole school? Wake up people and take responsibility for your lives and the lives of your children. While shooting like this one are horrific, compared to population of the united states, it's miniscule. More kids die in swimming pools each and every year, but no one is demanding the carnages stop. Or to ban and fill all swimming pools. No, to many of the limp wrists have swimming pools. Don't want to ban something they use.

  • I go with training teachers-should be one concealed carry in every hall way. 

  • Mr. LaPierre, I don't really agree with you, but then I am not Pres. of the NRA. I think it would be more expedient to train teachers how to respond to a shooter. 

  • This is a step in the correct direction; however, one armed security guard or policeman will not be enough for a large school. His whereabouts may well be known by a perp and he or she may enter the building far away from the armed support. I still believe the staff of the school should be trained and carry concealed weapons. And shoot to kill!

  • The way the white house and Senate work it would not be Veterans doing the guarding but Hamas that the white house is keeping as a private army getting ready to attack the USA....But as long as the people have arms then they know they will loose big time....

  • Armed Guards or Security is better than 'gun Free Zone Signs' ....
