Controlling "Guns": Absurdity In Perspective

     One of the Sandy Elementary teachers who had no weapon to defend herself or her students, used her body to protect her students. She is dead and so are her students.   

   Some people freaked out when I suggested teachers    have guns.

   Insanity, according to Einstein, is doing the same thing over and over while expecting a different result.

   Connecticut, like most financially strapped states, cut Mental Health Programs while Strengthening their Gun Laws;

 as if,  those previously,  Lone,  Mentally Disturbed young men who slaughtered innocent people in the schools, mall and theater didn't leave a clue that it was mental illness that picked up the Gun?   The first solution would have been for the Sandy Elementary School to have helped the single, divorced Mother with a mentally ill child Before he became a mentally disturbed adult; after all, the reporters kept saying it's a "close knit community".
                   Really? 

According to the Aunt, her murdered sister, was embattled with the school and shunned because of her son's mental condition leaving the mother to "home school" him.  End result: She provided the guns and Hollywood provided the entertainment of violence from movies and video games

                      …it is the"absurdity of it all."

   Yes, guns scare me. Especially, when I am around strangers shooting them off all around me on a firing range; but I would be more afraid, if I were completely helpless. How would you fight against a gun without a gun? A bow and arrow? 

  I am for gun control on semi-automatics, but I want to   have the "Keys" to the National Arsenal, just in case;

                      because...

What frightens me "more" is Our Government giving 'Out of Control' Guns to our Enemies:  

1)"...... the United States government is set to deliver 20 advanced fighters and 200 advanced main battle tanks to Egypt’s Muslim Brotherhood government.  These weapons –

                        purchased by American taxpayers when American allies ruled Egypt
                       – will still be delivered despite the fact that the

Muslim Brotherhood is not only a sworn enemy of America and Israel but has actually inspired terrorist attacks across the world..."

2)  the Mexican Drug Cartel in

                     "Fast and Furious": Obama's Administration allowed thousands of American
                      illegal assault weapons to be bought by Mexican Criminals; thinking
                      that they could track the guns to the crime.

     In the meantime, the criminals used the guns to kill hundreds of innocent Mexican citizens and an American drug agent. If the agent had not been killed, Americans may not have known how the Obama Administration was actually "trafficking" illegal guns across the border to our ENEMIES!

                  The "absurdities" don't stop here.

    What about the schools? A neighbor's son would come home from school drugged up because that's where he got the drugs. That school is called the "Pharmacy" by the students. When it was "suggested" that there should be a community meeting to discuss the "drug problem" in the school, the Principal was against the meeting. He said that to bring attention to the drug problem in the school would suggest to parents that the school has a drug problem.


   As a society we are numb to Violence. There are 60,000 plus dead Syrian people streaming across our big screen TV; as if, its an action movie, while we sit on our couch eating popcorn.

Absurdity In Perspective

1) Illegal drugs in schools easily available to students   

                              2) Our own Government Eliminating Mental Health Programs that provide drug Management and Support to the Mentally Ill

                              3) Our own Government trafficking guns to unsavory people and giving the really big guns to untrustworthy Governments

                              4) Our own Government trying to Restrict weapons to Law Abiding Citizens
                           
                              5) Streamlining Violence across the Internet and Television creating an environment of acceptance for violent behavior
                     
                              6) Acceptance of mass killings and genocide by Government Authorities

                              7) Our own Government allowing 4 Americans to Die in Benghazi because they"refused to use" Defensive Firer Power when we had a 100 times the weaponry of our enemy in the region.

In comparison to all of these Violent, Illegal and Dangerous "acceptable"behaviors by Governments and Society;                                                                         

Is it absurd to train teachers to handle a gun, instead of, using their "bodies" to protect the children against a gun?

    Considering what is "acceptable" by our government and society:

                              Yes, it would be Absurd!
