Anti-Gun Activists Force Cancellation of School’s Veterans Day Ceremony

For the first time in eighty years, the Eau Claire School District in Wisconsin has cancelled its annual Veterans Day ceremony. The tradition includes a 21-gun salute, and anti-gun activists have protested the firing of rifles, even though the guns contain blanks. Tim Libham, Executive Director of Administration for the district, told WEAU Television:

There are just some conditions that we have to adhere to and the shooting of guns, even with blanks, is something we don’t feel is appropriate given society, and the concerns that we have and that community has, on school premises.
Commenters on the school district’s Facebook page reflected support for the veterans and outrage over the cancellation.

Some things are just plain wrong.

Yet they accept and condone "training exercises" with cops armed to the gills with assault weapons and live ammo busting into schools pretending they're after a school shooter.
Given their ineptitude it's just a matter of time until THEY kill a bunch of innocent kids by "accidental discharge"...
So when are they going to ban armed cops from schools?

"The real deal is this: the ‘royalty’ controlling the court, the ones with the power, the ones with the ability to make a difference, with the ability to change our course, the ones who will live in infamy if we pass the tipping points, are the captains of industry, CEOs in fossil fuel companies such as EXXON/Mobil, automobile manufacturers, utilities, all of the leaders who have placed short-term profit above the fate of the planet and the well-being of our children." - James Hansen

Let's face it. Schools are supposed to be a GUN FREE ZONE. Any questions? ;)
