Playing devil's advocate...



They look like trigger words to remember the key parts of his speech in the correct order. More of a reminder to get through points 1-4 before the presumably more emotive 'I hear you' section.



It's not hypocritical to change your opinion on something in the face of more evidence.

No. He just finds it difficult to emote or have empathy. It’s like when he stands there grinning for the camera in hospital pics. He could be standing over a corpse and if someone took a picture he would grin and give a thumbs up. When hurricanes were battering the US he picked up on wind speeds in a ‘gee wow’ kind of way. Or how quick first responders got to a scene rather than the horrors of the scene itself. It’s not the people or potential harm to people that triggers his attention it’s something that he finds impressive in the way a 7 year old boy would.

Arming teachers is a nonsense. Trained policemen have a low accuracy level. Adding more armed people into the mix with at best superficial training and who are not use to these situations is just pouring petrol on the fire. Half the casualties would be ‘friendly fire’. Also when police do get there who the hell are the bad guys? The shooter or the half dozen panicked teachers running round the place shooting at anything that moves? The idea is beyond moronic.

Because Columbine, Virginia Tech, Sandy Hook and the hundreds of other school shootings that don't get in the news because only a few get killed wasn't enough evidence to form an opinion.
Personally I don't think he has the intelligence to have a proper opinion. He will either say his opponents are making things up (in this case Hillary) or he will say what his sponsors want him to say (in this case the NRA). It doesn't matter if the two statements are contradictory, his supporters don't care.

Corporate America wrings its hands and wails ............... then see's there's a gun fair on downtown and trots off there to buy some more ammo for a school project

Great idea. Arm the teachers and make them the first targets for a mad man

Great idea. Arm the teachers and make them the first targets for a mad man

Or, encourage madmen to become teachers!

The idea that arming teachers would put a stop to this kind of thing is ridiculous. I'm guessing there were plenty of people armed at Fort Hood and at the Washington Navy Yard right?

They will suggest anything to divert away from the fact that warfare guns need to be banned.

The teacher in the vid made a great point; do they get extra training to shoot guns on top of teaching kids? Do they also get kevlar vests also?

Another post on twitter asked if what happens with school insurance as many won't insure any schools that have firearms?!

Who pays for it all?

All very good points!

Do we allow students to carry guns in school just in case their teacher has a bad weekend and decides to put a few caps in some fucker arse.
