Hayward CA crime rates and statistics - NeighborhoodScout
Hayward California is a scary place to raise a child. I know every time you see the word gun, you tense up, but it sounds like he's trying to combat a violent culture and teach younger kids who are surrounded by gang violence that it isn't the answer.
So...one silly school district.....ok.

Heaven forbid that a principal in a bad area do something in an attempt to steer kids away from violence. Conservatives are so pro gun that they will give this guy a hard time when he is attempting to do something good. Conservatives think that the problem in America is liberalism, how fucking thick are they?
Me and virtually every guy I ever played with as a kid shot play or imaginary guns at one another or other cops, robbers, cowboys, indians, etc., yet to my knowledge this day none of us has committed a criminal act with a gun.
Liberalism is fantasy land.

".... in an attempt...."
1. There it is....the difference between us 'thick conservatives,' who actually seek efficacy...
...and child-like liberals for whom wishes equal reality.
a. Liberals and Conservatives differ in the way to proceed. For Conservatives, data informs policy. (“More Guns, Less Crime” and “Mass murderers apparently can’t read, since they are constantly shooting up ‘gun-free zones.’”- Coulter) We use Conservative principles to the best of our ability, but when confronting new and original venues, we believe in testing, and analysis of the results of the tests. For liberals, feeling passes for knowing; it is based on emotion often to the exclusion of thinking.
2. “There are mature and immature people all across the political spectrum. But Leftist positions are unusually childlike – because Left-wing positions are nearly all based on identifying one’s wishes with reality. ..The Left would like to believe that people are basically good. Therefore the Left declares people to be basically good…..The Left would like to believe that all countries, cultures, and individuals want the same things-a peaceful, tolerant, open, free society. Therefore, they believe it." Dennis Prager?s ?Still the Best Hope? reviews the Evils of the Hysterical American Left | MN Prager Discussion Group
Here is the Cliff Notes version: toy gun buy-back isn't the answer....
.....teaching values and morality is.
you think doing this will work?.....he can get those kids to give away all the toy guns they have....they still have to put up with the gangs they live around.....and they have real weapons....Hayward CA crime rates and statistics - NeighborhoodScout

I've learned to shrug and accept so very many of the insane and inane beliefs and programs that Liberals come up with to find Utopia here on earth...or at least in California.
But when I read this on, I just shook my head ...
1. "Strobridge Elementary Principal Charles Hill has a brilliant idea: he’s holding a toy gun exchange next Saturday in which students of the Hayward, CA school can turn in a toy gun to receive a book and a raffle ticket to win one of four bicycles.
2. “Playing with toy guns, saying ‘I’m going to shoot you,’ desensitizes them, so as they get older, it’s easier for them to use a real gun,” he claims.
3. At Strobridge Elementary Safety Day, a local policeman will demonstrate bicycle and gun safety, (does he get to use a real gun?),....
4. Hill, defending his take-away program, asserted that police are justifiably afraid when they face armed suspects, and toy guns have been mistaken for real ones.
5. ...Yih-Chau Chang, spokesman for Responsible Citizens of California, said, ”Having a group of children playing cops and robbers or cowboys and Indians is a normal part of growing up.”
Elementary School Beginning Toy Gun Turn-In Program
Before any say it's a fine idea....
....even a buy-back for real guns:
6. “Researchers who have evaluated gun control strategies say buybacks – despite their popularity – are among the least effective ways to reduce gun violence. “Gun buybacks popular but ineffective, experts say John Lott states that the vast majority are old or inoperable.
How is it that educrats seem oblivious to any real data, and eschew scholarship for feel-good plans?
Could this be the explanation for the horrid job they do?
still doesn't address the real danger many kids face daily...namely GANGS.....you think doing this will work?.....he can get those kids to give away all the toy guns they have....they still have to put up with the gangs they live around.....and they have real weapons....Heaven forbid that a principal in a bad area do something in an attempt to steer kids away from violence. Conservatives are so pro gun that they will give this guy a hard time when he is attempting to do something good.

On its own? No
But the school had the "buy-back" which included a focus on gun safety given by a local police officer who talked about gun violence, how toy guns can be mistaken for real guns and vise versa and the dangers.
May as well amputate their trigger finger too while their at it. If they get bored while they are recovering they could teach em how to read or something.

Sitting and criticizing someone who is attempting to do something good is the way to go? The right wing way? You are the ones with no values and morality.

the laughing stock of the Nation?.....i bet this States Economy makes yours look like a laughing stock....still riding our coat tails?.....picking up any left overs?.....California is the laughing stock of the nation.......its should be home for all far left k00ks. They'd feel right at home!!!
Geologists ay its only a matter of time 'till it falls into the ocean, which really would be what you'd call mercy killings. Remember "Escape From New York" with Curt Russell? The sequel will be shot in California in real life in about a decade!! No actors will be needed.
I suppose I assume talking about "gun violence" in a high crime area meant addressing gangs.still doesn't address the real danger many kids face daily...namely GANGS.....you think doing this will work?.....he can get those kids to give away all the toy guns they have....they still have to put up with the gangs they live around.....and they have real weapons....

Children at a California elementary school were able to turn in their toy guns for books and raffle tickets on Saturday.
School Principal Charles Hill, who came up with Strobridge Elementary Safety Day, said toy guns teach kids to not take real guns seriously, San Jose Mercury News reported.
Playing with toys guns, saying Im going to shoot you, desensitizes them, so as they get older, its easier for them to use a real gun, Mr. Hill said.

You just can't make this shit up.
This is a unique approach, I like it. Purely voluntary, but it sends a good message about gun safety.
