    Schools are your problem. I have no kids.

    Colt started selling the AR-15 in 1964. The AK-47 has been in production since 1949. Columbine was the first really orchestrated school shooting on April 20, 1999 and they used AR or AK's. That's 35 years between introduction of the AR-15 and Columbine and 50 years since the introduction of the AK-47.

    Fascinating how for 35 years there were no mass school shootings with either the AR-15 or AK-47, but as realistic first person shooter computer games advanced realistically in conjunction with reckless prescribing of psychotropic drugs to teens and the school mass shootings started. If people are serious about stopping the tide of disturbed teens buying or stealing a AR-15 and shooting up a school like a first person shooter game, then those games should be banned for sale and possession. Add to that removing a psychiatrists ability to prescribe psychotropic drugs without the OK of a real physician.

    Sorry but the safety of the society children are everyone concern not just the parents.

    Next as far as banning games now we are talking about the first not the second amendment and the ability to get games download from anywhere in the world over the internet.

    An no game, have unlike assault rifles, had killed anyone but it was a good try.

    Yes I disagree with what the other side believes as in gun confiscation, rioting, looting, arson and attempting to overturn an election that kept them out of power.

    I get it. You have no link to back up what you claim. I’d try to spin it like you are too if I got caught. No worries

    Who’s confiscating your guns?

    Are you denying the guy grabbed his rifle and got into a running gun battle with the church shooter? Are you denying that with no extra ammo he only had the ammo his rifle held in it's magazine? Is it so hard to believe he was running low on ammo that you need a link? Use your head here. Once again it's obvious your claims to be a gun owner are false.

    The same people that want to overturn an election that didn't go their way would like to.

    Agree, this guy is about as pro-gun as Jerry Brown and is nothing more than a poseur.

    I heard an interview with the guy that was really interesting. He gave credit to God for what he did and said he's no hero. He said when he grabbed his rifle he jammed some bullets into it and really wasn't sure how many. After shooting at the guy several times and getting into a car chase with him he was afraid it would end up in another shootout and he'd run out of ammo but he kept up the chase anyway. He's a hero in my book.

    No offense but I don’t know you, so I trust you about as far as I can throw you (figuratively speaking of course)
    I don’t care that you don’t believe I own a Ruger Mark IV. I used to own a Sig 226 but .22 ammo is much cheaper for target shooting. Which is all I use my gun for. I’m not paranoid about getting into a gun fight at the OK Corral

    Please, if you don't know I can't help you. I'm not going to engage in a ridiculous conversation with you, when you're clearly anti-gun. I'm going to stop this conversation now.

    In other words you’re making stuff up. There isn’t one thing you can point to that makes me anti-gun. Saying I don’t care if mags get limited to 10 round is not anti-gun. I’m not advocating that they should. I simply don’t care if they are. If you think that somehow makes me anti-gun then so be it.

    You are entitled to form whatever opinion suits your confirmation bias.

    Your ORIGINAL question was about the NUMBER of teachers leaving the profession. Low pay is a SEPARATE issue.

    Here are the FACTS.

    Seems these people thought they could get into teaching and then try to strong-arm the taxpayers into paying them more. Talk about entitled.

    The alt right fallacy that everyone only works because they want to make lots of money never fails to amuse.

    Unlike the left which looks for ways not to work and make lots of money.

    This is typical for your posts. In your OP you ask the question on why we have armed guards for banks but not for schools but when it's pointed out that schools DO have armed guards.....you answer NOT ENOUGH so the problem is.....what the hell are you talking about then?
    You constantly move the goalposts in an attempt to make a point that apparently only you understand what you're looking for?
