Mike McDaniel continues to look at how we can better defend schools from nutcases/terrorists/evil people. In his latest, he looks at what one county in North Carolina is doing.
I begin with this article about what Madison County, NC thinks a good idea.
Madison County, North Carolina, is planning to put semi-automatic rifles in each of its six schools heading into the 2022-2023 school year for enhanced security in the case of an active shooter threat.
County Sheriff Buddy Harwood announced that the rifles will be stored in secured safes at each of the county’s elementary, middle, and high schools. The six schools will also store breaching tools and ammunition in the safes that law enforcement could access in the case of an emergency.
You can go read more but what would McDaniel say of this solution, which certainly is being panned by the left because they simply hate guns. All they seem to be capable of it to chant about “weapons of war”, “assault rifles” and apparently further delude themselves into believing disarming law abiding citizens will solve the problem. But, again, what say McDaniel?
One of the best ways to determine if the people in charge of a school district, or a state, are serious adults is the issue of teachers and staff carrying concealed handguns in schools. It is the delineating factor between feeling safe and doing what is necessary to actually be as safe as possible. Those that rely on “gun free school zone” signs and virtue signaling in general loudly proclaim everyone can feel safe because they “got guns out of schools.” Of course, all they’ve done is disarmed the innocent and assured mass murderers they have a free fire zone where they’ll be able to kill a great many teachers and children before any police response can possibly interfere with them. With only a few exceptions, the police have had no role in stopping school attacks. Killers usually kill themselves, or less often, escape before the police can interfere with them. These people live in a reality of their own making, a reality where good intentions and imaginary intellectual and moral superiority make a thing so because they say it is so. They believe additional gun laws can stop people plotting the mass murder of children.
In the world of real reality, the only thing that can stop a killer with a gun when and where he strikes—school killers are virtually always male—is an honest man or woman with a gun. Unless teachers and staff are armed and prepared when and where an attack occurs, the only thing that will limit the toll of wounded and dead will be the good will or lack of marksmanship of a madman. Only allowing willing, capable teachers and staff to carry concealed, widely publicizing that fact, and never revealing how many, if any, are carrying at each school provides deterrence, and when deterrence fails, a means to prevent any injuries of deaths, or at least to limit them.
Lots more at the link. McDaniel rips into the virtue signalers, the gun laws in North Carolina, and the mentally impotent governor for not grasping the second amendment, or reality. Be sure to read McDaniels final thoughts on this. McDaniel deals on this from a different perspective than most. He deals with reality. Not virtue signaling nonsense.
