<< I sure don't advocate arming the "good" kids in that school. >>

Give me you best explanation why you don't advocate this. Obviously, arming kids at school will never happen. But please put your reasons into words.

<<We are not other 1st world nations. We are not Japan, Great Britain, or even Canada.>>

Correct! But if it works for them it may work for us, too. It may not, but it is something to debate.

<< The kids used shotguns and deployed pipe bombs. Had guns not been available, I have no doubt these same kids would have shifted to "plan B" - iron bars and/or improvised incendiary weapons.>>

I'm sure you are right. I'm just looking for possible ways to limit violence in the future. It may be an impossible task.
