Politicians, police responsible for school shootings

To the Editor:

Folks, I know that I am no smarter than our members of Congress, I know I am no smarter than Barak Hussien Obama, I know that Gov. Paul LePage is every bit as smart, if not smarter than me, as are the majority of Maine's Legislature, Sheriffs, Police, Courts and Media.

So, it only stands to reason that if I am smart enough to know that by making schools gun free zones, by making it illegal for anyone who works for the schools to be armed, it is only inviting criminals and evil doers, so are they.

Yet, the politicians, the police, the media, the courts, all have done their part to make sure that when a crazed killer wants to attack a school there will be no one there to interfere with his, her, or their evil deed.

These sheriffs, those police, courts, politicians and media are just as guilty, just as responsible for the deaths of those 20 five and six-year-olds as are the killers. And I for one will no longer hold them harmless.

A little note for teaches in Maine to ponder:

Do you think, even for one moment, that if you pull out a gun and stop a crazed killer in a school here in Maine, that any cop, outside of Portland, would dare to arrest you?

Do you think for even a minute that the people in that community would allow the superintendent, the principal or anyone else to fire you, demote you, or do anything other than applaud you?
