    How stupid a reply is that.

    But I am convinced you can even beat it.

    Why do you think teens are inherently evil? As to arming children, at least be so kind as to protect them. Sort of like the waitresses do at Shooters Grill.

    When you attack posters, what do you suppose will happen next?

    you seem to think they are evil, why is that? if you think that, why would you want to arm them?

    I say it's not safe to arm all the children going through puberty, confined to a school all day, many more deaths would happen, nothing to do with good or evil

    No but they have immature brains - literally immature and do not have the same amount of developed executive functioning

    I am just trying to understand your position. Cops are an exception in your eyes. What about armored car guards? Should they not be allowed to have guns?

    I agree in principle -- especially about "escape the troubles of the world". And that is why we very rarely ever went 'out' to eat anywhere -- even before this 'virus' thing upended everything.

    The best food is at home! The big TV, the sound system, the comfort, the security, and everything else we really want is at home, so why go out?

    Since I have a Son in Law who for many years was a police officer (now retired), + had several police officers as clients that I sold property to or for, I did get a chance over many years to discuss police problems.

    I find that millions of citizens encounter police officers who have helped the citizens immensely. That for the most of encounters, things work out splendidly. I have heard some of their amusing stories about citizens who wanted to make a police officers life hard. And how that ended for the citizen.

    I have been having meals delivered to me from various restaurants. As you mention, the enormous TV keeps me busy with movies, news and of course this forum.

    As far as I can learn, no mass killer has entered that restaurant to kill patrons.

    Around the same time that my restaurant was served a cease and desist, Governor Polis was bragging to President Trump about Colorado opening for business. This morning I decided to open on the city street because my employees still need paychecks. I will not back down!

    Women come to restaurants all the time carrying feminine supplies. Do smart arse 10 year old's grab their purses?

    I put a cannon in my front yard, there has not been a single pirate attack since then. Must mean the cannon is working

    Make no mistake, MANY of us in Colorado love Congressperson Boebert!

    Sometime in the future I'd like to see her run for other, higher offices. She is EXACTLY the kind of person we so desperately need in government today!

    If the cannon was not working, you would have removed it and perhaps sold it to a person that needed it.
