Apparently our liberal friends are shocked, shocked that we NRA gun nuts think that one way of protecting "our children" is by arming teachers. "I can't believe they said that."
But there is a very good reason why arming teachers wouldn't work. The reason is that teachers and school administrators are mostly women and women don't do violence. OK, Dana Loesch excepted.
And we have a perfect illustration of that: Donald Trump. In remarks after the Parkland shooting he said that had he been there he might well have charged into the school. Today, of course, all our liberal friends are sneering at the president.
But in fact there is history on this, from Mother Jones (disputed by Snopes.com). It's 1991 and Trump is riding in the Trump limo to a concert in New York City with Marla Maples, his main squeeze at the time. Trump saw a man being beaten with a baseball bat, and stopped the car. Despite the pleading of Marla Maples (according to Rush Limbaugh) Trump got out and confronted the bat-wielder.
Get it? Marla Maples said: Don't! Alpha male Trump:
But I had a similar experience, although nothing like as brave and noble as Trump. Lady Marjorie and I were at a jazz club and getting ready to leave. But the musicians were having an argument with the management, right in our way. Lady Marjorie wanted to avoid the crush, but I was damned if I was going to cringe before these hoodlums, so I led her right through the scrum. And we survived.
This is the way of all flesh.
Hunter-gatherers? Once there weren't enough men to maintain a tribal territory the tribe disbanded and the women were taken up by neighboring tribes.
Greeks in 1000BC? They sacked cities on their way to Troy, killed the men, but took the princess Briseis to become a concubine. That's what the row between Achilles and Agamemnon was all about: who got the babe.
Cleopatra in 0000? Well, she killed herself with an asp, but previously, as the tail end of the Ptolemaic dynasty, had been shacking up first with Gaius Julius Caesar and then with Mark Anthony, realizing that Ptolemaic Egypt and she were doomed to Roman suzerainty.
Vikings in 1000AD? They sailed up the rivers of Britland in the fall, killed the men, stole the grain, and took the women to sell them in the slave market in Dublin, Ireland.
Berlin in May 1945? The German women were left defenseless in Berlin, and made the best deal they could with the invading Red Army. The best thing was to become the mistress of a Captain or a Major, and steer clear of the enlisted men. But the women hid the teenage virgins in the attic.
Liberal colleges in 2017? Post sexual revolution, nice girls submit to the hookup culture, and then complain about it afterwards.
See, here's the thing. Men are expected to march toward the sound of the guns, and indeed a lot of men instinctively do it. Because millennia of hunter-gatherer tribal warfare. But women don't. Men are fighters; women are carers.
But the thing is that education from K thru graduate school is becoming more and more completely dominated by women, and this means that education is bound to become dominated by a "feminine sensibility." Women complain, but they don't march to the sound of the guns, looking for trouble. If it comes to a fight, then women submit. And frankly, judging from the German women in Berlin in 1945, I gotta say it works for them.
Yes, but what do we do about school shooters, now that school shooting has become a "thing" that even the dullest, laziest teenager knows about? Well, according to David Cole we could ramp up security just like they did in LA during the gang warfare of the crack epidemic, with the head of security packing heat.
But I think that the answer is to take down the whole government school system. Maybe it had a point, back in the 19th century when the working class wanted free education so their kids didn't have to go down the mine. But today I think that all the neighborhood women should get together and educate their kids with each other. That way kids would not be assembled in strategic concentration where they are sitting targets, both for liberal indoctrination and for drugged, crazed male school shooters.

The guy with the bat looked at me, and I said, ‘Look, you’ve gotta stop this. Put down the bat,'” Trump told the New York Daily News. “I guess he recognized me because he said, ‘Mr. Trump, I didn’t do anything wrong.’ I said, ‘How could you not do anything wrong when you’re whacking a guy with a bat?’ Then he ran away.”Others at the scene have a different story.
