HOW TO PROTECT THE KIDS

---

Most of the television and radio talking heads (except some of the conservatives) have missed to obvious and most effective way to protect the school kids.

They suggest solutions without doing the simplest sanity check to see if their solution would have helped the kids and teachers in Newtown CT.

Examples of ineffective “solutions”:

1. Make it harder for people to buy guns.
But the alleged shooter did not buy the guns, he used someone else’s.

2. Ban assault guns.
But the alleged shooter used a handgun.

The obvious approach is to do what the celebrities themselves (as well as politicians, banks, religious organizations and armored cars) do for protection; provide an armed guard.

People contemplating mayhem tend to avoid places where there are armed guards who might thwart their plans.

It is as plain as the nose on your face.

And while we are at it, there are other places that need armed guards such as shopping centers and other places where there could be a large number of victims.
