Grandmother Wants Change After School Gun Incidents

Two Guns Found At Public Schools Tuesday

COLUMBUS, Ohio --
A grandmother is asking local schools to make changes after two Columbus students took guns to school Tuesday, NewsChannel 4's Jesse Abdenour reported.

Cassie Williams is the primary caretaker of her 16-year-old granddaughter, who is a junior at Linden-McKinley High School. She said she is concerned about guns at schools.

On Tuesday, police found an unloaded gun at Woodward Park Middle School. A loaded .22-caliber handgun was found at Briggs High School.

Williams said the incidents scare her.

3. NOW what are you babbling about, dems?
From the story...

"Metal detectors, however, aren't coming to Columbus Public Schools anytime soon, Abdenour reported. Officials said detectors are too expensive, and they cause too much congestion at the front door. "

5. Dems, have you gone around the bend?
That's the only explanation I can see.

Do YOU think that guns ought to be allowed in and around schools without any penalty?
