School Shootings #6

     I called New Hampshire Governor John Sunnunu's office today, and his aide had not heard any talk about putting metal detectors and gunpowder sniffing dogs at schools. To my asking, she replied that he was pro- Second Amendment. I asked the aide if she would find out why he's not demanding detectors and dogs.
     I started to call the Vermont state representatives, but they did not have offices except for one Senator, and he had a robot.
     I read in the Wall Street Journal today that the Texas governor has apparently never heard of metal detectors and dogs or has ruled them out because his new plans for schools don't include them. Instead he wants to come down harder on the citizen: He wants to require secure safety lockers for guns in your homes. fine you more if you don't have them, and require that the age of your kids be lengthened during which you as their parents are liable for their gun violence. You'd voted him into office? I plan to call and try to find out why he didn't push for detectors and dogs. I urge you to call as many legislators as you can and ask why no detectors and dogs. Be as forceful as you can. Make an impression. Blow their doors off. Remember, it could be your child, grandchild, niece, nephew next. Do it for the children! And when there's another school shooting, and you see the politicians and the security people wringing their hands and crying, spit on your screen. Nick
