The Left doesn't fight evil; it fights those who do.
DENNIS PRAGER — hy does the Left oppose allowing a small number of highly trained teachers and other adults who work at schools to arm themselves? When asked, their response is consistent: "It's a crazy idea." And "we need fewer guns, not more guns."

And during gunfights, when the adrenaline is really pumping, that accuracy can drop to as low as 13 percent."... (more)
