All Americans want their children safe in school. They elect people they trust to accomplish that, the problem is the two parties see the nation differently.
There is proof all over the world where nations of people are safer with stringent gun laws. Proof. Yet, in the USA the proof doesn't matter.
Why?
Because Democrats seek the truth and where it applies to making our people safer. The Democrats have a methodology that employs fact finding to solve problems.
The Republicans, and I am sorry if this is offensive, but the truth is the truth. The Republicans allow private industries to dominate their legislation. In this case, the NRA has control over the violence in this country. Violence suits the purpose of the NRA. The more violence in our society the more guns people believe they need to protect from it. The Republicans stand aside and allow their idea of an economy to rule their governing. It fails the people every time.
The Republican economy does not value life, it panders to money. That is the politics that rules the GOP. The nation is simply a playground to their election funders.
It is no different with abortion rights. Democrats value privacy, relationships, "No matter who you love." The Democrats value faith in god. Minority Leader Pelosi is very religious, but, she doesn't wear it on her sleeve.
The Republicans receive vast amounts of political money from wealthy individuals that see only one faith in their lives. They don't believe in diversity, hence, the GOP legislates pandering to these people. The GOP passes judgement on citizens. They are immoral in getting an abortion. That is no one's business. We have plenty of people in this country and don't need to insist unwanted and unplanned pregnancies result in births.
The Republicans idea of privacy is that what goes on within four walls is sacred to democracy. Yet. When a woman conceives within those four walls an unwanted pregnancy, privacy dissolves and what results is judgement of her decisions.
The Republicans are a danger to this country. They allow danger to exist. They seek to dissolve our government in ways that are harmful, EPA, Education Department, Energy Department. Harmful. Their judgement of these agencies within the USA are that they are unneeded. OSHA is wrong. Seeking methods to control pollution is harmful to the economy. Regulation of the health care industry in the blatant face of deaths caused by an unregulated industry is too costly to the Republican Economy.
Banks to big to exist should never be regulated. Businesses always know better than any legislator. "Government never does it as well as private industry." Yet, The Great Recession was nothing to the GOP. Simply a bailout.
The guns in the USA have to be regulated. This is more than sad, this is condoned by government. There is nothing stopping it. Year after year we witness the violence with our young people and year after year nothing is done because votes to regulate the industry are scored by the private industries that demand profits at the cost of American lives.
It is time to stop the silliness in politics and simply that obvious. Facts and truth are strong partners to those who sincerely love this country without yielding to dangerous private industry DEMANDS. Private industry should be partners to ending the danger in American lives, not adversaries. The day that happens, Americans will know they have finally found legislators that sincerely are trustworthy.
My deepest sympathies to the families, friends and peers of the dead.

..."We were all just sitting there (click here) staying quiet and praying," said 15-year-old Jessica Girard, who was in math class when she heard three loud bangs.
Outside the locked classroom door Jessica heard someone walk by saying. "It hurts. It hurts. Make it stop."
As students left the school, many held their hands in the air or on their heads and police officers patted them down. Robinson later said authorities believe the gunman acted alone....
