Betsy DeVos Argues Issue Of Guns In Schools Should Be Fully Left Up To Individual Shooters
WASHINGTON—Explaining that there was no one-size-fits-all solution to the problem, Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos reportedly argued Monday that the issue of guns in schools should be fully left up to the individual shooters. “It’s not the role of the federal government to step in and dictate whether firearms in the classroom are the right choice for any one specific shooter,” said DeVos, who told reporters that every shooter is different and that it should be in their hands to decide how much training they need and what sort of weapon they should carry. “It makes sense that a shooter in rural Iowa is going to require a different setup than a shooter in the middle of Atlanta. Instead of trying to solve this with an overly broad and ineffective mandate, we need to be making decisions on a shooter-by-shooter basis.” DeVos added that she believes strongly in this policy, as it has already proven successful with shooters across the country.

The other Billy, not so much.. in my humble opinion.

Kansas man defends hurling racial slurs and saliva at preschooler: 'It's OK, I'm a fireman!'

Kansas man defends hurling racial slurs and saliva at preschooler: 'It's OK, I'm a fireman!'


Few things ruin a fun night faster than racism. One Kansas family found that out the hard way while celebrating a loved one’s birthday with a couple dozen people in a crowded Overland Park, Kansas Hooters restaurant earlier this week. One of the youngest partygoers wandered away from the group, as little ones sometimes do; when his grown-ups came to collect him, they reportedly encountered a vocal and unapologetic bigot.

“He basically said get that little ‘blank’ up off the floor,” (one) witness recounted. “The n-word started to get thrown around.”

He said he saw a child wander away from his family and, when the family member came to retrieve the preschool-aged kid, is when another customer used a racial slur and spat at the child.

He thought a physical altercation would follow, but instead police were called to the restaurant.

Kudos to this kid’s adults for calling the cops instead of cold-cocking this dude. But once police arrived, things took an appalling turn when the man allegedly tried to justify his racism by invoking his chosen career.

“I didn’t catch what the officer said to him, but his immediate response was ‘It’s ok, I’m a fireman,’ like that was supposed to blanket cover everything for him,” the witness said.

Apparently, that blanket has some holes; according to local law enforcement, being a firefighter does not grant one the right to spit on children and call them niggers, despite the unnamed first responder’s assertion.

Overland Park police have since handed over the case to the district attorney, with the recommendation that he face criminal charges.

Confirmed: charges are coming.

Overland Park police said Friday that the suspect, who was not named, will be charged.

Sgt. John Lacy, a police spokesman, confirmed the suspect is a first responder. Though he did not say which agency the suspect works for, he said the person did not work in Kansas.
