Think about it. Every American courthouse, every airport, and most governmental offices of any size have metal detector screening with security guards present. Shouldnt the money be better spent on the same level of security for schools? Second, putting AR's on the Class III list is not an inherently bad idea. Nobody disputes that full auto on the list is a reasonable restriction. Problem is , how do you handle the million or so AR's already in the public domain? Not an easy answer for that. Last, I wish some forum members would stop with the ad hominem attacks. It is childish and counterproductive. Just sayin'.
