When a disgruntled former client shot several people at his law firm in San Francisco in 1993, I worked at another law firm down the street. We had a meeting to discuss ideas to increase security. I told them that I worked for five years in a large office building holding a thousand people and we never had a problem with crazies coming in with guns because our receptionists carried shotguns. It was the headquarters of Strategic Air Command, which controlled all of America's nuclear weapons. The government knows how to protect people from crazy killers. The point of Obama's laws isnot to protect us but make us more dependent on government and less able to defend ourselves.

There was a sign posted that said "Fight Crime. Shoot Back."

They all send their kids to Sidwell Friends School.

With campuses in Washington, D.C. and Bethesda, Md., the highly selective private school is where the Clintons and the Gores sent their kids, along with Joe Biden’s grandchildren.

It’s also where the local 1 Percenters and the government-media elites who can afford to shell out about $32 grand a year send their children to be indoctrinated -- excuse me, educated -- and to be...
