Reminds me of the time the town of Rubio, Venezuela was under curfew. I was out in the school yard playing basketball with some friends, one evening, and a tank rolled slowly down the street, turning it's turret to aim towards us and the soldier telling us to go inside...
I'm saddened and infuriated by the increased attacks by Americans. Americans attacking their own. Shouldn't we be calling them traitors?
The war is here and it is not going to get better. People get upset and want more gun laws, I'm not going to argue that perspective, enough people are already doing that.
We need viable solutions, now.
How long until someone reaches out and organizes the traitors for a full scale attack? I'm not CIA think tank, so it would surprise me if this hasn't been thought of already.
We need to do something now.
The National Guard comes to mind: " Under State law, the National Guard provides protection of life and property and preserves the peace, order and public safety". (source: http://www.ngaus.org/advocating-national-guard/evolving-role-citizen-soldier)
Each state has their own force, can we start with schools, posting 3-4 armed guards?
What do you think?

Huge cost with minimal benefit while further militarizing our daily lives.
No.
I think you're making a huge and wrong leap to the idea that the types of people who pull off these kinds of attacks are interested in creating an organized rebellion.
Stephen- as long as we expect violence to happen, it will. The more we fear violence the more power it is given. The only way to end the cycle of violence is for our culture to shift to a philosophy that violence is not an acceptable answer to problems. We currently teach that it is on both individual and mass levels. That has to stop, period, and is the only long-term answer.
