re: Oklahoma School First In US To Use Bulletproof Shelters To Keep Kids Safe During A Shootin

People often forget that along with freedom comes responsibility. People want their freedoms without the responsibility. The Founding Fathers probably didn’t feel the need to write in a “personal responsibility” provision in the Constituion since back then such virtue was a given and not something one could to take or leave.

If we want a society with loose gun laws, and we are aware of the risk, however small, that such laws will allow from time to time a mass shooter to shoot up a school, it is our responsibility to do what we can within reason to protect the kids.

To me, if gun enthusiasts collectively have to pay $25 million per child’s life saved by the shelter, that’s “within reason.” At what number does it become not “within reason?”
