       While the United states Armed Forces (private mercenaries) are in Saudi Arabia, “determined to protect the lives of American citizens abroad,” Republican (fascist/socialist) President George Herbert “Read my lips: no new taxes!” Walker Bush—ostensibly an advocate of the Right to Bear Arms—signs the Gun-Free School Zones Act, making it illegal for unauthorized persons to bring a gun within 1,000 feet of any public school (either government-run or free-market).

       NOTE: In the three decades prior to the enactment of the GFSZA there were 73 killings in 73 shootings incidents in primary and secondary schools across the nation.  In the three decades since the passage of the GFSZA the number of school shootings rose nearly three-fold, and the number of deaths resulting from those shooting rose MORE than three-fold.
