All the talk about gun control following the recent and previous school shooting tragedies in the United States tells us a lot about how we see the world. Americans frequently see the world the opposite of the way Israelis see the world. I am an American, not an Israeli, but I believe the crucial question we are all asking is this - Who is protecting the children? Right now, the answer to that question in the majority of American schools cannot be denied - unarmed adults. The answer to that question in Israeli schools is often - armed guards. The opinion of citizens who want to remain unprotected themselves and to leave school children unprotected as well can be see in the article entitled What If 1 Of The Teachers Had A Gun? by Drew Zahn in World Net Daily. |
