So a schoolkid is only in danger when he or she is "high profile", huh?
No ... it means the likelihood that a criminal will seek out that "specific" child out for a premeditated criminal act (kidnapping, extortion, etc.) is much greater than seeking out some random child in some random school.

How can you possibly not understand this?
So the poor parents of those Newtown victims should take comfort in the fact that their children were stolen from them by a wacko who's intent wasn't premeditated?
This liberal is all for trained law enforcement personel at every school.
The hypocrisy isn't from the liberal side, but rather from conservatives who don't want to pay public school teachers much less TRAINED Police Officers!
Instead you want the teachers who you despise to do it for free, ON TOP of the duties and training that they have to perform already. Or worse some wannabe SEAL to volunteer.
No thanks.
Of course that doesn't mean that you aren't more than happy to give the tools for mass murder in the hands of every Tom, Dick and Harriet, but that is a topic for another thread.

Please provide a link to a notable conservative asking teachers to be armed guards for children for free.

Out of curiosity, how many of the elites' children have been the victim of a criminal act in the last 20 years? Once you get that answer, compare it to how many "regular" children have been the victims of criminal acts over the last 20 years. That way, maybe you'll start understanding what I mean when I call this hypocrisy. The elites know that children are the favorite target of criminals, so they protect their children. Meanwhile, they make it illegal for our children to enjoy those same protections.
How far to you want to carry your ridiculous argument that your children should have the right to the same level of protection as a president's children? Do we order armorer plating for all the school buses, pick each child up in a million dollar bullet proof car? I'm pretty sure most school budgets have lots of discretionary funds laying around they can divert to help with this goal.

Obama and Biden hardly give/gave to charity and prior to running it was closer to 0% what they gave..
Obama only paid of his traffic tickets when he decided to run...great example!
Sasha and Malia go to the same private school most presidential children went to. How exactly is it spreading someone else wealth ???
Also, WE have Obama's taxes going back almost 20 years (when he was a state senator) he gave ruffly 18% of his income over that period of time to charity, before that he was making a salary of 10,000 dollars a year.
if you are arguing the dollar amount he was giving that is stupid considering he wasnt making as much especially compared to people like mitt Romney, who can (and did) give away the equivilancy of Barack and Bidens COMBINED salaries.

Thanks.
I suppose we'll spend the rest of the day arguing over who is notable and who ain't.
Wayne LaPierre, CEO of the nation's largest gun rights lobbying organization, said the NRA would push Congress to put a police officer in every school and would coordinate a national effort to put former military and police offers in schools as volunteer guards.
LaPierre also said he asked Congress for money to put a police officer in every school. He said the NRA would coordinate a national effort to put former military and police officers in schools as volunteer guards.

That makes no sense!
What makes no sense is trying to discuss logic with you.
Who said anything about parents taking comfort? Their children were the victims of a senseless act by a mentally ill person.
If a parent wants better protection for their children, then they should pay for it, and send them to private schools, just like Obama is doing now.
Protection costs money.
