School hid rapes of four 1st-gradersAnd this has what do do with gun rights?
Student, 12, was allowed to stay in school after first assault
Indirectly, this:
The case has also illustrated how difficult it can be under the law for parents to hold a school system responsible for the safety of their children...I'd say this shocks my conscience:
In federal court last month, the district’s lawyer, John Freund III, argued that under the Constitution school officials cannot be held responsible simply for failing to protect youngsters from assaults by other students.
He cited federal court rulings that say school systems are generally immune from paying damages unless it can be shown that they actually took “affirmative” steps that put youngsters in danger, and that the action taken “shocks the conscience.”
You're compelled by law to give up the means to defend yourself and your children, and the same law is fixed so that no one is liable if people die as a result.
But then again, maybe it's just me:
First, we believe in absolutely gun-free, zero-tolerance, totally safe schools. That means no guns in America's schools, period ... with the rare exception of law enforcement officers or trained security personnel.
