Faux News take on the shooting

We need to harden the schools up.

We need armed guards at the school.

We need to make sure people who shouldnt be there, cant open a door.

Basically they're calling for schools to be like a prison compound.

Not one word omn gun control though.

Especially Murdock. As "important" is he is, he will really need to be put into lock-down. Just like the kiddies, right?

…and who will PAY for those armed school guards.

I don’t own a gun. Don’t ask me to pay.

Do who should?
Every gun owner; who should pay an annual property tax on each gun he owns.*
They should’ve happy to pay that tax - it’s for FREEDUMB!

* A calculation I did a few years ago after getting numbers from a CBS News story, and using Maryland as an example, that tax came to about $2,300 per gun, per year. Got three guns? $6,900.
