While Obama is trying to disarm the country the school his daughters attend have eleven armed guards.
Now obviously there are armed guards because the school is attended by many children of dignitaries, but eleven guards there and none at most public schools should all tell us all that the arming of people against the bad guys is important.
However it is extremely dangerous to let the "arming" of people soley to the government. Should a rogue person, or small group, who does not have the best interest of America get in place at the top of the government our freedoms as a nation could be in great jeopardy.
If Obama truly wants to help this nation he can go along with the Americans who want to strengthen our borders by keeping both illegal aliens and gun runners out of our country. He won't do that though because by allowing the free flowing of undocumented illegals into this country he is ensuring the support that native born Americans largely withold.
It's not really about keeping America safe. It's about controlling America.
