TEXTBOOK SHIELD

TEXTBOOK SHIELD
A candidate for state superintendent of schools said he wants thick used textbooks placed under every student's desk so they can use them for self-defense during school shootings.

Watch for Ron Blocker to jump on this idea.

Ridiculous, especially given the material textbook paper is printed on. A bullet would go right through, and that's assuming the textbook was big enough to cover the student from outside line of fire.

Physical defenses won't do anything. Clearly this surge in school violence is related to social problems and the sooner we solve the hate problem and give troubled students a more positive outlet to get their anger out, we're bound to see more and more of this senseless tragedy.
