Schools Can Help to End the Tragedy of Gun Violence
The never-ending series of mass shootings in America generates more heat than light. More heat as in hot rhetoric and as in packing heat. Nothing like more guys with guns to solve America's problem with violence! It's like prescribing bacon to treat heart failure. And we Americans assuredly have heart failure when it comes to gun violence.
I won't bother arguing for common sense gun control. Each time I've written about gun control the only visible result is more action for NRA trolls. It is remarkable how much manly emotion is wasted on inanimate objects. But, to be fair, most gun owners and Second Amendment zealots don't murder their friends and neighbors. They just make it possible for others to murder our neighbors, friends and children. It's called being an accessory to a crime, although the NRA and the Supreme Court consider it patriotism. Patriotism is the world's #1 killer.
