The following is a comment on this post on Ann Althouse’s blog. Though I imagine it could be expensive to implement, the idea could save lives. It sure beats huddling behind some desks in a classroom, listening to gun shots in the distance.

By the way, the actual post is worth reading. Ann looks at the “common sense” meme that’s thrown about by talking heads and politicians. Short story: when you hear an “expert” say that we should adopt common sense solutions to this or that problem, you can be pretty sure that they are referring to their solutions not yours.

Balderdash

Okay, in proper company, there are things you don’t say. But many politicians, journalists, “peace activists,” terrorists, and sundry other individuals are no longer proper company; thus, when they speak balderdash, thoughtful people should call it balderdash. So without further dancing around, I hereby say balderdash to any and all who call for Israel to defend themselves proportionately. 

That’s my view.
