A Killer on Campus

What brings someone to commit such senseless murders? And how do we put an end to the epidemic of school shootings in our country? Respected investigative journalist Bill Kurtis, will explore this tragic story from every angle, providing context through interviews with students, faculty and witnesses, as well as experts in forensic psychology, criminal profiling, and school shootings profiling, to help place this shattering incident into perspective.
Well, let's see...

Do you think "respected...Bill Kurtis" will highlight how VTech policy prohibits weapons on campus? Do you think he'll bring up how a bill to rectify that died in subcommittee? Do you think he'll report how University spokesleech Larry Hincker lauded the death of that bill, and publicly ridiculed a student who suggested allowing CCWs on campus? And do you think the conclusion will be that insane citizen disarmament policies guarantee a victim rich environment for madmen, and the only solution is to not infringe on the right of the people to keep and bear arms?

How many of these conclusions do you think A&E will arrive at while looking at every "angle" and "perspective"?

Let's find out. It airs tonight at 10:00 pm (9:00 pm Central) and Friday at 2:00 am (1:00 am Central).

Kurtis is a Marine so I am unable to comment.

If Mr. Kurtis chose the word "epidemic" for the copy, then we can make a guess what his position will be.

Incidents like that which occurred at VTech are not widespread, and aren't spreading rapidly. Considering the epidemic of bare-fisted defense zones, these incidents are still, thankfully, very rare.

I went to grade school in a series of bare-fisted defense zones. I wouldn't wish them upon any child, no matter how bad they are.
