Dem Rep. From Texas: ‘No’ To Arming Teachers…But ‘Yes’ to Motorized Steel Walls At Schools

Dec. 20, 2012 8:00am Mike Opelka

As VP Joe Biden takes the helm of the President’s gun control initiative, Texas Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee has been talking to her constituents about how she would make schools safer.

Despite being elected to serve people in a state where Gov. Rick Perry supports allowing local school districts to decide if teachers and school administrators will be allowed to carry firearms on school grounds, the Representative leans more towards protecting pupils by outfitting schools more like a prison. She believes that protecting the kids would be better handled with bullet-proof windows and mechanized metal walls and doors that would automatically close when trouble is detected.

On Monday, Congresswoman Lee appeared on KPFT (a Houston public radio station) and explained her thoughts on allowing teachers to bring firearms into the classroom:

I cannot, at this juncture, believe that arming teachers… or that teachers would want to be armed… is going to be the answer for a place that is a refuge for learning, for creativity, for solace, for happiness for our children.

Rep. Jackson-Lee also shared how she would earmark funds from a recently approved bond issue to accomplish the “prison-inzation” (this author’s term) of the school.

(Note: The Congresswoman incorrectly states that Lanza used an automatic weapon — “he shot his way into the school with an automatic weapon.” The killer did shoot through a glass door, but there have been no reports that he had a fully automatic weapon, just a semi-automatic rifle.)

  Please don’t judge Texas by this “woman,” and I use the term loosely. The only reason she would be for motorized steel walls and against guns is because it would cost money to retro-fit all the schools in her district and she could give the contracts to her croonies.

The greatest loss of life during a school assault was the 1950s era arson that killed 95. Then the 1927 Ed Kehoe dynamite attack that killed 47. Her Mars Rover is viewing that Flag again.

  I googled the terms “+school +arson”. I received 16 results & they were all garbage. Either arsons at school do not occur(never occur) or there is something wrong with the web.
  
  You can’t have google 1950s & items about what happened because the search engines cannot use heuristic reasoning/logic in search terms or at least the ones we use don’t seem to have it.

  I’v got news for this uneducated liberal! Teachers are already armed and the schools can’t stop them unless they put up metal detectors. My wife taught school in Texas for almost 30 years and she always had a gun. Sometimes it was just a derringer with a single .22 long rifle bullit. Before we got married I didn’t know she was armed and one evening we were going to visit her folks in Oklahoma and some kids in a Firebird were playing with us. They let me pass and then would pass me and finally we were coming to a curve where they were going to run us off the road. My wife reached into the glove box and rolled down the rt. window and pointed a .22 gun at the driver. He locked up his brakes and smoked the tires and we never saw them again.

Those of you who live in her district ask her if she walks the quarter mile distance from her crib to her office……we all know the answer is no….she can’t walk that walk…because she might get mugged.

  Once a fool, always a fool. She fits that phrase perfectly and she proves it perfectly as well. So what happens if they don’t have an indication of trouble before some freak gets inside. So they lock down the school like a prison with the freak inside with the children. Instead of 20 children being killed she would make absolutely sure that every child in that school gets killed. Of course she would still be all for it as long as all of the students are white because very few people hate white people more than she does. She hates white people almost as much as she hates intelligence which is why she stays far away from getting any. She is a joke of humanity! And please, ALL THE FOOLS OUT THERE IN THE WORLD, I apologize for insulting all of you when I put her in the same class as you. Also, on the previous sentence, I am NOT saying that anyone on this site are fools. I am just speaking to all of them out there in the wide world.

Even the most stubborn Dem jackasses have the sense to at least have a concealed handgun in their vehicle or consider getting one.

I don’t agree with her position, I am an avid believer in the protection of or second amendment rights and I also believe our schools should be well protected and armed to defend our children, but to say that she is wrong because she is black and that you can’t believe”they reproduce,” is sick, disgusting, and despicable.

Using a dialect or colloquial pronunciations does not equate to racism. It is claims like yours that have contributed to such bitter race relations. So, why don’t you embrace the actual debate and shove that stupid race card back up there where the sun don’t shine.

  @naughtycal- I don’t know how many African Americans you know, but this “stereotype” does not represent half or anywhere close to it. And for the record, “it is why people like Jackson get reelected” is false. You want to know why African Americans turn out big for African Americans who run for office? It has nothing to do with “ebonics” it is because conservatives who run against them don’t defend themselves against the liberal biased media who paint us as racists and “rich white men who care nothing about African Americans” then all they have to do is go on one of these websites and see that white Republicans see them as nothing but “ignorant ebonic speaking Africans” who shouldn’t be allowed “to reproduce” wake up people! Conservatives must defend ourselves against liberal controlled MSM and educate those in or own party who believe and promote the kind of intolerance shown here today.

She does not, she represents a weird shaped district in down town Houston where most of the residents are on Welfare. Many of them fled Katrina and stayed because the benefits were better than in Louisiana. She continues to get reelected because she brings home the bacon.

  This “steel wall” idea, which sounds similar to automatically-sealing airlocks in a spaceship or space station to protect against a hull breach, would be fantastic for trapping students and teachers inside while some nutcase set a fire or set bombs off. Or, trapping the kids and teachers IN with the killer.
  
  “Sheesh! Evil AND a jerk!”- Jade.
  
  And that’s not to mention stupid and short-sighted. But then, those seem to be the hallmarks of Liberal/Progressive ideology and policy-making.
  
  You know, it would be irony on an epic scale if the people of the US were to be saved from tyranny not by elections, rebellion, or the judicial system, but by either terrorists, Iran, or N. Korea nuking Washington, D.C.
  
  Personally, if I were a D.C. resident and accidentally learned of such a plot, either to nuke D.C. and/or to assassinate top government leaders, I’d quietly leave town and keep my mouth shut. And that really hurts me to have to say about my own nation’s government and it’s leaders. But sadly, it and they have become everything that the US was founded to escape, and has fought politically and waged wars against, for over 100 years.

  You know speaking on the topic of firearms… you can bury your head in the sand all you want but the simple fact of the matter is, you cannot wish away guns. They are an invention that will never go away.
  
  Furthermore you are absolutely naive to think that any criminal, bent on the destruction of life, will abide by your new gun bans. On the contrary, new gun regulations will only hurt the law abiding citizen. (those people who willingly lay down their arms)
  
  No, the only way to end this is through education and responsible armament. Educating our children on the proper usage, handling, and respect of firearms. And arming those responsible (private) citizens who are in the best position to react to sudden violence by mentally disturbed people. (school teachers, bus drivers, airline pilots, ect)
  
  It isn’t about turning it into the “wild west”. It’s about preventing madmen from shooting unarmed people like fish in a barrel.

  @Pot-Contributor. WHAT are you smoking? Ignorant bed-wetting liberals like you, who have no basis in reality, especially when it comes to firearms, always cry that smart, common-sense, REAL-WORLD solutions, like concealed carry, will result in “Wild West” shootouts. The vast majority of gun owners, especially those that legally carry concealed, are very responsible with their firearms. In fact, as a group, they are much less likely to commit a crime than the general population as a whole, and virtually every state that has enacted concealed carry, has seen a drop in violent crime, NOT the “Wild West” shootout scenario you, and people like you bleat about. And, by the way, gun owners are not “gun” fetishists, we are FREEDOM & LIBERTY fetishists. When you think of little ones lying lifeless at the hands of evil, think of the relatively few at Sandy Hook, and then think of the MILLIONS of innocents gleefully encouraged by the left to be slaughtered by abortionists, and also the MILLIONS of children slaughtered by their OWN governments, along with their mothers, fathers, friends, and other innocents. The bodies stacked like cord-wood during the Holocaust, and the skulls stacked high after the Cambodian Killing Fields, as well as the specter of societal breakdown, chaos and violence, such as during the L.A. riots, and the aftermath of Katrina, to name two, are EXACTLY why the 2nd Amendment allows citizens to keep & bear EFFECTIVE tools, such as military style semi-autom

  Legislate those on school grounds defenseless and they are victims in waiting. It is far past time we provide our children armed security at every school in this country. The real question is why do so many cling to their denial and want to keep the children and teachers defenseless?

  But it’s okay to give them our kids all day? How freaking ignorant can you people be?? We can’t trust teachers with a gun, but we should trust them with the most valuable thing we have, our children? Another anti-freedom idiot with tapioca pudding where a brain should typically reside.

  Might as well. 93% of criminals identify themselves as dumbocraps anyway.

That’s right, she wants to lock unarmed kids and teachers in with a shooter whose intent is to kill them. That makes more sense than giving them a way to defend themselves.

  She should just put in the ‘british red coat’, make her identifiable before she opens her mouth.

After a little more consideration- I think she is correct. Her solution is the right one for the people of her district. It will get them used to the prison system at a very young age- which is likely where they will end up if they follow the values of the voters prevalent in her district. Good to break them in early.

All this coming from a member of a demographic that is responsible for over 50% of this country’s gun violence. They can’t handle the responsibilities of gun ownership so they think that nobody else can either.

  Ironic isn’t it? Outlaw guns, then only her constituents will have guns! Maybe that’s their ultimate plan for the takeover of our country!

this idea just seems wrong to me….i have this mental picture of children playing in a school yard with the playground surrounded by concertina wire and guard towers……hardly a scene condusive to learning.

Here’s a typical Democratic response. Illogical, and asinine. She want to spend enormous amounts of money for steel walls to put the children in a prison atmosphere, while on the other hand, arming teachers, and, or a security staff would be far cheaper. Its all about common sense. I choose having live security rather than an inaminate security that can have the power turned off, becoming useless.

  Yep , another prog that refuses to face reality. Cannot fathom the concept of people protecting their children with the greatest equalizer of all. They want titanium reinforced steel walls with motorized gadgets attached blah blah blah blah blah. I really hate progs. I mean it. I wish that we could be separated from them completely. They are disgusting.

The idiot’s sequined cowboy hat is too tight AGAIN. Potentially trap the kids in the same room with the shooter, plus spend huge amounts of taxpayer money at the same time. (Ladies and Gentlemen, I present to you the dem’s 2016 candidate.)

Motorized steel walls? Maybe just a padded cell for Ms. Jackson Lee with a motorized cell door. She is just the sort of batty nut job that needs to be taken off the street, but the low information voters keep her off their streets by sticking her in Washington DC.

  Please don’t send her back to Houston. When she left theft went down.
