It is a political debate and a political battle. That is why it is news. That is why events and positions are rhetorically exaggerated. I do not look out my window and see gun battles or even armed people. Trained and responsible Sheriff's deputies protect all of the schools in this area. Not untrained teachers buying weapons and ammo from the NRA's sponsors. So no I am not "waiting for the next High School massacre."

You Englishmen have a right to express your opinions. But when those opinions are half baked and ill-informed, people closer to the situation are obligated to let you know.
