“There is a growing sense of the inevitability of violence in America, which acts as an accelerant for more violence. If society accepts that it is impossible to control guns, it becomes logical that the only solution is more guns.
If we accept that school shootings are beyond the reach of a governmental solution, then the only protection from violence becomes more violence.
While other Western democracies focus on putting computers in every classroom, America is putting guns in every classroom, arming teachers and school administrators. Surrounding children with armed protection is how drug lords try to protect their children, not a functioning democracy.”
