there were no kids with guns there. The kids would have been under 21, too young for a CCW. Fact is, good guys with guns do stop bad guys with or without guns. In fact, it is very common according to at least 17 criminology studies over the past forty years. Even gun control activist and academic David Hemenway admits that it happens over 100K times a year. Granted almost all of them with no shots fired and very few land up dead, it does in fact happen.
Just because former Monsanto PR executive Shannon Watts said so while working for Bloomberg, doesn't mean it is true. If the source matters, Watts is a PR professional who headed Monstanto's GMOs are good for you.

The question is, how many had them in a freshman comp class? Based on average of those classes, I would say zero. Of course, it is a nice distraction from this being a hate crime directed towards Christians, isn't it?
