    Okay hear me out, the reason for such tragedies is logical. Kids have no guns to fight back! It’s just like if you had a guy pointing a gun at you. If you had a gun of your own, you could distract them with a handful of dust and then shoot back. Same for the kids. If they had guns they could defend themselves.

    Next we’ll discuss the vulnerability of animals such as whales and hummingbirds as it relates to their lack of usable fingers for trigger pulling.

      The school boards got rid of PE classes so that schoolchildren could focus on trigger finger crunches specifically.

      Essential skills, and all that.

        That person seems to be underestimating how difficult it is to keep a pocketful of dust safe at the splash pad!

          Sand is 7 bucks for 50 pounds. Dust will poof its way out of your pocket over time. Sand will stay put forever. Don’t skimp on your safety, buy the pocket sand.
