https://www.wrcbtv.com/story/4...school-officers-safe A couple of the more astute observations made in the article: "Groups advocating against gun violence are questioning how the kids got into the safe." "Beth Joslin Roth of the Safe Tennessee Project said she also wonders why an officer would have an AR-15 at school, given how imprecisely they are designed to fire." | ||

"Imprecisely"? Beth, you're an ignorant tool. And yes, why would an officer charged with the safety of the students have the best tool available to him to take on an armed assailant....  ~Alan Acta Non Verba NRA Life Member (Patron) God, Family, Guns, Country Men will fight and die to protect women... because women protect everything else. ~Andrew Klavan | |||

Oh no Ms Roth - only at YOUR kids' school are there no firearms for protection, only whistles and phones. Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ And rocks... "If you’re a leader, you lead the way. Not just on the easy ones; you take the tough ones too…” – MAJ Richard D. Winters (1918-2011), E Company, 2nd Battalion, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne "Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil... Therefore, as tongues of fire lick up straw and as dry grass sinks down in the flames, so their roots will decay and their flowers blow away like dust; for they have rejected the law of the Lord Almighty and spurned the word of the Holy One of Israel." - Isaiah 5:20,24 | |||

I would guess because their parents didn't raise them very well. | |||

Woah there, erj! “Sticks And stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me” They cant go around hurting people. Arm them with words! Sooo much stupid from that “reporter”. But if you gotta push an agenda, you gotta push somehow. ______________________________________________________________________ "When its time to shoot, shoot.

Not really from Vienna |
Somebody needs to email some targets showing “imprecisely fired” groups from an AR to Beth Joslin-Roth so she can see how ignorant of facts she really is. Not that it would do any good. | |||
|
Wait, what? |
Exactly this, but blame the gun because BLACK RIFLE BAD. It probably let itself out of the safe and left itself where children could find it. “Remember to get vaccinated or a vaccinated person might get sick from a virus they got vaccinated against because you’re not vaccinated.” - author unknown | |||

Perhaps it would be best if she would just be quiet, given how imprecisely spoken she is. CMSGT USAF (Retired) Chief of Police (Retired) | |||

Being former studants, they may well be of age to be incarcerated as they probably were up to no good. Carelessness of the Guard also. | |||
|
| Ignored facts still exist |
Maybe they could pass a safe storage law for the school. . | |||

Beth Joslin-Roth: ""...not one that was designed by the military to kill them if you even knick them with it," she said" Link She's an expert, isn't she? The news report mentioned this was an elementary school. I'd like to see pictures of the safe. | |||

| Get my pies outta the oven!  |
She most likely thinks it's a machine gun too. None of these anti-gun types know a single thing about what they propose to ban for the rest of us, it's amazing! | |||

How come they didn't get a clue when the kids filed their application for a background check? | |||

I can't really blame Ms. Roth for holding that notion. After watching so many movies and TV series wherein people fire hundreds of rounds at each other from AR's/M-4's, I have to take mine to the range for a couple hours to reassure myself as to their accuracy.  She might not have the same opportunity.____________________ | |||

Probably one of the sheet metal lockers that can be opened with a plastic fork. | |||

| Just because something is legal to do doesn't mean it is the smart thing to do. |
We know she is ignorant about firearms by her article, how did you determine she is a slut?  Integrity is doing the right thing, even when nobody is looking. | |||

I get Bulldog7972's reference, a classic ad hominen argument from a running point / counterpoint skit on Saturday Night Live -- "Jane you ignorant slut." | |||
