Folks all over the web are talking about the shooting in Connecticut as we speak. Yet everyone is saying let's just pray for the children, let's not spout off on our beliefs. Well, dammit, I'm tired of praying, tired of not doing a dammed thing about it.  
 We
 MUST stop living in denial. We MUST do what is right by our children.  
No one wants to hear the truth, but some sicko, busted into a school and
 murdered a bunch of KIDS- a "Gun Free Zone" where no-one, faculty an 
even security if there is any, are allowed to carry in the unlikely 
event of such an attack!  As has been said before- We perform fire 
drills, install extensive fire sprinkler systems, extinguishers, tornado
 drill, storm shelters, maybe even bomb shelters! But we do not plan for
 an active shooter rampage situation, We trust these folks with our 
children's minds, bodies and well being everyday, yet we will not give 
them the option of protecting our children against one of the greatest 
threats of today!
A
 bill was introduced last session to simply allow individual school 
systems here in Nebraska to allow legal and well trained permit holders 
to Conceal Carry firearms for the defense of the students, our CHILDREN 
for God's sake! And what did we do? We tossed the idea like a bad egg, 
Denying the problem, Denying our children the protection they deserve. 
When are we going to WAKE -UP and at least sit down and take serious 
action. Or would we rather just wit at our computer or TV and cry over 
the innocence lost and PRAY it doesn't happen to us, to our kids?
