So I am not going to say anything at all about the passing of Edward Kennedy.

Getting Ready - Part One
No, Silly, not the apocalypse! College!!
Oldest son goes back to college tomorrow and today is Pack and Party day. I hope he does at least as well this year as he did last year. Making the Dean's list again would be cool...
Someone remind me to tell him how proud I am of him.

Woodstock High School lockdown
Reported a few minutes ago, from Woodstock, GA:
Woodstock High School Latest School to go on lockdown
2 teens, aged 15 and 17, were arrested after one of them turned himself in.
A search warrant was issued for the home, and 2 ugly black guns were found with ammunition. There is a lot of information still to be reported, but I find the reporting of Gary Davis somewhat biased: "After the gun was located a search warrant was ordered for the home of one of the students. It was quite scary when two assault rifles were found along with hundreds of rounds of ammunition."
Quite scary?
What is scary is that the people doing the reporting haven't been the least bit objective in their portrayal of the incident. Joe Friday would say "Just the facts, Ma'am".
I do not support or condone gun violence at schools. I do not support or condone minors carrying firearms unsupervised. I do not support or condone any illegal use of a weapon.
I also do not support or condone biased reporting and opinion masquerading as objective journalism. "Just the facts" is all I am after. The implication that ownership of "assault rifles" and hundreds of rounds of ammunition automatically makes a person evil just turns my stomach.
Grow up Gary! LOTS of people own ugly black guns, handguns, shotguns, and hunting rifles. MOST of these same people ALSO have "hundreds of rounds" of ammunition for them. So what?!! Un-bunch your panties, man up a little, and deal with it. If any laws were broken, then I am SURE that the enlightened law enforcement officers and the esteemed legal system in Georgia will deal with it appropriately. If they do not, then you have MUCH BIGGER problems in Georgia than it appears so far.
