I Can See Clearly Now

"A new survey from Pew finds that, by a 2-1 margin, Americans support putting armed guards in the nation's schools. 64% support the proposal, first floated by the NRA, against just 32% who oppose it. Even this proposal, though, has a partisan tinge to it. 62% of Democrats support the idea, but Independents are slightly less favorable, at just 59% support. 73% of Republicans, however, support the policy."

You can can fool some of the people all of the time, but clearly these people have not been fooled - they are serious about protecting their children and no amount of political kabuki dancing is going to convince them otherwise. If this same degree of realpolitik would spread to other issues affecting our society, we would be on our way back to health as a nation.
