We Don't Need No Stinkin' Feds! OH, TX, UT, AZ and More Prepare To Protect The Children

By Susan Duclos

While idiot lawmakers like Sen. Dianne Feinstein's (D-Calif.) prepare to offer gun bans, ammo bans and laws that have already been tried and spectacularly failed, on a federal level, state officials, teachers, and citizens around the country are actively taking steps to train, arms themselves and defend our nation's school children.

A few headlines that say it all.

The Columbus Dispatch, Ohio- "Scores of school workers want gun training"

Daily News- "In tiny Texas town, teachers are armed with concealed weapons, a 'better' solution than a security guard"
