<<<< In 1927, 39 children were killed at school, with a series of bombs. More than this, there are hundreds of violent school threats underreported, each and everyday, in our country. We can improve our defenses against evil, but we cannot eliminate its reality.
Bath, Michigan, site of the worst school massacre in
American history:
Bath School disaster. School board member Andrew Kehoe set
up a series of explosions in the Bath elementary school. That morning he killed
his wife and detonated a bomb inside the school. As people amassed outside,
Kehoe detonated his shrapnel-filled vehicle outside the school, in which he
took his own life. The bombings constituted the deadliest act of mass murder in
any type of school setting in U.S. history. 39 children and 6 adults were
killed and 58 injured. That was back on
May 18, 1927. K12

Coming forward to yesterday:
Thursday, Dec. 20th, at Central High, here in
the San Joaquin Valley of Southern California, a freshman was taken into
custody for taking a loaded pistol onto the campus. He had been in a
fight the day before, and returned to the school, today, with
the intentions of using the weapon.
At Buchanan High School, on Thursday, also, in the Central
Valley,of California, a student was arrested for bringing three liquid type bombs onto
that campus.
In the wake of the Sandy Hood murders, and with the
two local incidences [above] in mind, news stories that will never be posted in
national news broadcasts, I wonder just
how much potential violence is on our school campuses on any given day of the
week . . . . . hundreds of local incidences that, again, will never go beyond the local news cast. Clearly, our children have been the targets of evil
for nearly a century, in this
country, alone. For Obama to call for a list of “solutions” to be on his desk in a matter of three or four
weeks, is not only childish in its naivety, but is as irresponsible as it gets.
The idiocy of "immediate solutions:"
Even worse, Obama
will assimilate this material, get a “plan”
in his mind, and then demand that
Congress take immediate action without benefit of congressional process. Once again,
it will be “my way or the highway,”
because “I have already taken the
time to prioritize a listing of meaningful solutions.”
One thing for certain, meaningful solutions never come from this type of demagoguery.
