For The Sake Of The Children

                                                This Has Got To Stop!
                                                        by Wilbur Witt

                           Please watch this news clip from ABC News:  http://abcnews.go.com/GMA/video/atlanta-school-shooting-woman-tells-alleged-school-shooter-20032499

     This is a familiar story. A school, an AK-47, and a nut. This time a very brave woman, Ms Tuff (I think the name is appropriate, don't you) saved the situation and the lives of up to eight hundred children. This pattern is becoming dominant, almost scripted, where some idiot, whom everybody knows is an idiot, acquires a gun and storms off into a school to kill babies. They do this because they've seen it play out in the mass media so many times. They have images of "glory" in their fruitcake minds, and they're not so much interested in shooting as they are in the cameras they know will surely come afterward. 

     Forget about gun control. If these people couldn't get a gun then they will get a knife, a bomb, a sledge hammer, anything! Forget about mental health. When you put this vermin on pyschitrophic drugs they just go crazier. No, we have to find another solution, a "final" solution. Let's agree on some principles. One, there are people in the world that are totally useless, indeed, less than useless because not only do they use oxygen that other people need they actually endanger decent people by the very act of using said oxygen. Two, these idiots have "rights." When they paint themselves up like Geronimo, masturbate, and take off to Brigham Young Elementary they have the same rights as Bishop Franklin down at Ward 5 of the local church. I think a little common sense is needed here. 

     Most people with mental illness never hurt anyone. A depressed person traditionally withdraws into a world of lonely sadness, and psychotherapy with proper medication tries to bring the, back to happy times. The people I'm referring to are Narcissistic individuals bent on killing your children if need be to get on the nightly news. They are completely absorbed in the fifteen minutes of fame sub-culture that has grown exponentially in the last fifty years. The opposite, normal reaction to the glare of the lights is the man who saved the three girls in Ohio and then wouldn't even take a free hamburger. 

     Something has to be done to convince these personalities that the end game of their actions is not glory but inglorious death! It should be that when a SWAT team rushes in the primary goal is to execute the shooter with or without his hands in the air and absolutely NO questions ever asked of the police officer that dispatches him. Are you shocked? Take a look at what an AK-47 will do to a five year old little girl. Such a gun uses a 7.62/39 bullet. It is designed to penetrate and destroy. I was cleaning my SKS which uses the same cartridge some time ago on my porch when it went off. Now, I always point my gun away or up, but the bullet went through the ceiling, tore a two by four support beam in half, and blew two shingles off the roof. Do you really want to worry about the civil rights of a man who fires such a weapon at a school child, because if you do then you need psychotropic therapy! 

     It won't cure things all at once. These people are stupid, but in a while it will become clear to them that the best way to commit suicide is to storm off in a school with a gun. Also, with these animals prowling the streets we need to face the grim reality of "gun free" zones. When you have a gun free zone that means the active shooter has the only guns and the children and their teachers are the proverbial fish in the barrel. If you don't want teachers to have a gun then at least consider this. Any police department if any size, and folks I'm including Florence, Texas in this model, has at least one officer they can spare for school duty. What's more important, keeping our children safe, or giving tickets. Schools are becoming more secure, and entrance is almost always obtained by going through the office to gain access to the hallways. The officer could have a desk right there, near the rear so as to obscure him and yet give him full view of anyone coming into the area who just happens to be carrying a machine gun!  And when the shooter appears just kill the bastard. Don't yell, "Stop," don't worry about his mental state, just shoot him in the head and then remove the body quickly so as not to upset the children. And don't use a school crossing guard for this duty either. Use a seasoned police officer, a member or a SWAT team would be perfect because this duty is most important. And if anyone says this is cost prohibitive THEY have lost THEIR mind!  They just put a cost on children's lives. 

     My method is harsh, I'll give you that. But something must be done to let these degenerates know that the only thing that awaits them down at the school house is the flash of a muzzle, not a camera. I'd like to conclude this article with a piece of poetry I hold to, and remember, I'm just a simple ol' boy from Austin. And if you don't think the mass media lure is a factor, without looking on the net, see if you can recall the name of the Sandy Hook shooter . . .then name a child that died that day, just one. 

                      Grand pappy told my Pappy, "Back in my day, son
                  When a man had to answer for the wicked that he done
                          Take all the rope in Texas find a tall oak tree
            Round up all of them bad boys hang em RIGHT in the street
                                              For all the people to see!"
