President Urges Aggressive Action To Keep Kids Safe After Recent Shootings

[aesop2-2009]

If Bush wants to stop the violence in schools he should advocate the distruction of man made weapons, i.e. guns.

to ENDER 18: The NRA is just an organization. It doesn't kill children. Anger kills children. I personally favor the option of bearing arms. Afterall, if terrorists invade our soil, I'd like to have a gun to defend my family. I think we need to go back and rediscover the true career building of love. The career building of egos and hate is only advertisement for "evil-lution" and not evolution of this country. The cure for anger is love.

It scares me that Bush thinks he can solve this problem. His "No Child Left Behind" policy has made teachers only teach the test and not the subject.

Whatever he "decides" now (Remember he is The Decider) will probably involve teachers going to paramilitary training.

This is not a simple problem and a "Simpleton" like King George can't create a solution.

Solutions must come from local police, school administrators and involved parents. The federal government can't put global fix on local problems. But King George thinks he is our government.

first of all it scares me to think anyone is looking to bush for some sort of answer to all these acts of violence at schools...i would rather see him do a "fly over"...our children could point to the sky and claim they've seen a flying a ss ... or monkey...with a gun...with WMD's...and nooklur bombs...

It is a sad day in this country when things that were previously self-evident such as children bringing guns to school to shoot people, now need special initiatives and summit meetings.

I cannot believe that because of the NRA, we are willing to provide semi-automatic and automatic weapons to emotionally and hormonally charged teenagers. You would think a small sacrifice in our rights to own an AK-47 "hunting weapon" would be a reasonable exchange for the safety and lives of our children. The insecurty and intolerance of high school coupled with the availability of firearms will inevitably lead to more deaths and shootings.

"Hey all you liberals....... who are you going to hate after Bush leaves office??"

Well, I don't see any reason we have to stop hating him?

ozilot.....nice one.

LOL!

Funny, but kind of real/sad.

[getcentered]

I don't hate BUSH. I just think he is ignorant and out of place.

After he's gone I will still have a problem with the type of blind allegiances that Republicans have had with BUSH over the last 6 years.

That's why we need to VOTE these mindless talking point passing Republicans out of power, and replace them with folks who can think freely and listen. If we don't we'll be high on money and low on cash for the rest of our lives.

Get SMART. GET A CENTERED VIEW OF THE WORLD.
