The NRA made it clear – guns in schools will make them safe.  “The only thing that can stop a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun.” Well, unless that good guy leaves his gun in the school’s bathroom so he can neither protect his charges nor keep them from having access to his gun.

On January 13^th of this year…just four days ago the Chatfield School in Lapeer, Michigan followed the directive of the NRA…to the letter.  They hired an armed guard, an experienced Sheriff’s Deputy to take charge of security for their 500 child school.  The announcement said “Thirty-two year retired Sheriff’s deputy in charge” and it was observed by the local Tea Party spokesperson that “a visitor to Chatfield School might mistake Clark Arnold for a smiling, kindly grandfather waiting for one of its nearly 500 students.”
