I wonder why an institution filled with very young children (Our Most Valuable Resource in spite of half of them living in poverty) and staffed with educated professionals charged with their education and protection didn't see it your way? Maybe the kids are adversely affected by it as opposed to being cheerful about seeing a gun up close and personal?
