There may be schools that are in need of improved security. But the
NRA's sole focus on the subject—the week before Congress reconvenes and
takes up gun control legislation—is no accident. If the NRA task force
had a serious interest in solving the complex problem of school
shootings, it would have started by focusing on real mass shootings data. It would have noted that the actual teen killer in Minnesota used the same kind of highly lethal weapons as the killers in Blacksburg, DeKalb, Tucson, Aurora, Oak Creek, Minneapolis, Newtown, and other sites of such slaughter. And it would have noted that in the last few years those weapons have become ever easier to obtain and carry in public.
