    They are comprised of people. Taking away the business's constitutional rights is taking right away from the people who comprises the business. Because again, people make up the business.

    That rational is consistent with the constitution. People have the right peaceably to assemble. A company is assemblance of people.

    It is only when a company's greed harms our national security by making our people poorer and less free, as they do now, they should be struck down and disassembled. At that point their actions are not "peaceable". Not when they harm our country.

    I don't see how that's relevant to my point.

    Even if you manage to ban private firearm ownership somehow, schools will still require security measures like armed guards. Or do you think no guns mean no violence?

    But you are not really against it either, not the way you are against having armed guards protect schools. So why such a radical difference? Why is using armed guards to protect money so much less offensive than using armed guards to protect children?

    There is no Team USA. The States have always been deeply divided along various cultural, economic, and political grounds.

    I do?

    Guard with jealous attention the public liberty. Suspect every one who approaches that jewel. Unfortunately, nothing will preserve it but downright force: Whenever you give up that force, you are inevitably ruined.
    --Patrick Henry

    And your government can be completely confident that the general populace in Australia has no effective means of resisting tyranny.

    You do need it. You just don't realize it.

    Why should teachers be prevented from arming themselves so they can protect themselves.

    I taught for many years in inner-city Brooklyn. I might have shot one or two kids LOL
    What would carrying a gun help me with? If a mass shooter comes in I would have to ask him to just wait a minute while I go and get my gun.

    Those who feel that way can remain unarmed. Those who wish to be armed should do so.

    I mean that if you remove the capacity to massacre, you will reduce the frequency of massacres. Thoughts and prayers don't cut it.



    Children can be protected without arming more Americans.


    Do you seriously reckon that 300 million guns in the hands of civilians will stop an American tyrant if he has the backing of the US Military?



    Good. No worries then.

    Why would they want to be armed in a Class Room?

    This is not going to end well. Unless that teacher has that gun on their waist at all times, even in the restroom, another Parkland is inevitable.

    That isn't the likely outcome. Food for thought...

    Then explain how to go about preventing individuals from illegally bringing firearms to facilities of learning for the express purpose of murdering those that are present. Do not bother attempting to go on and on about what is not supposedly the answer, only speak of what actually is the answer.

    Unless the proposal of armed educators has actually been tried for an extensive period of time in the past, how exactly would you know such for certain?

    If corporations are not treated as people, then the people cannot actually bring suit against them for various wrongdoings.

    How about their dress codes? You have to spend your money to comply with them.

    And in the states where the carrying of concealed firearms at facilities of learning is indeed legal, there have been no students murdered by educators who were legally carrying a firearm at the time.

    You don’t seem to understand that when you are teaching you don’t have a gun on your desk or in your hand . You don’t seem to understand that it is the element of surprise that allows all these deaths

    If I had to be trained to carry a gun in my classroom I would never choose the profession of teaching. And neither would most intelligent people
