Cowboys? Dirty Harry? Those were all AT THEIR HEIGHT DECADES AGO, when schools were open zones for any child molester to roam free, forget about guys toting semi-automatic weapons.
Again, HOW DID WE SURVIVE BACK THEN? Schools across the nation should have been littered with dead bodies on a daily basis.
Come on man...your argument is getting weaker by the minute.
