Don't be so quick to throw the baby out with the bath water. My students are fully aware that I exercise my Second Amendment rights and advocate for responsible use of weapons. I don't think I'm much of an exception either.

but tho think students are not brain washed in todays schools is just stupid i know it happens i have seen it

Aren't we responsible for what we let into into our own brains, and our parents responcibility to explain this to us. Some of the most briliant right thinking people came from leftist schools. Even the most leftist of schools are suppose to teach us that we need to think for ourselves.

But that's just the problem: you don't 'kill them back'.

1,384 murders in Texas in 2006, and 53 executions in that same year (yes, I know that executions come almost ten years after the crime..).

It's plain that there are an awful lot of people killing and not being killed.

Not every murder is a capitol crime, not every capitol crime is found to be worthy of the death penalty. We reserve the the death penalty for the most heinous of criminals. We can debate the worthiness of who deserves the ultimate penalty, but the rules make it hard, as it should be.
