Jumping the shark is not the solution. The only way to fight a bad shark with deadly jaws is with a good shark with deadly jaws.

Holy crap, a few turd-gems from the Facebook comment section:

“Sounds like a teacher trying to make the news to make a political statement against teachers being armed.”

“Wow all these staged events. They really want our guns. I wonder what they've got up their sneaky little sleeves.”

“I am guessing this is a liberal wing nut trying to make a statement against arming teachers. People forget you would not just arm anyone without training, background check, mental capacity check, etc.”

“This is what they planned so that you people would say teachers don't need guns.. This proves that they all need to be armed now.”

“How much was he paid to make you all think this will happen if teacher bring guns to protect their students. This was no coincidence jast as the countey is talking about arming teachers.”

Of course not. Just letting anyone have a gun would be insane.

No hope for humanity.

Yeah, boy, sigh. Indeed. Hard to have hope for humanity these days.

Sometimes I wonder if my cynicism is a function of my age or my perception. Thing is, as I get older, I find it harder and harder to ignore what's going on in the world.

Yep. I feel the same way.

All I'll say is I feel very vindicated in my first comment on this thread, not that I went for that big of a reach.
