Did anyone see the news report of the mother who was breast feeding her child in her bedroom when a criminal broke in and shot her? Luckily she happened to have a loaded gun nearby and was able to shoot the intruder. That gun saved her and her baby's lives.

He and his family live in Mt. Lebanon. He does a lot of business here (and other places, as well). <br /><br />When a prospective client call this chef about catering an event at the client's house, the very first question the chef asks is, "Do you have any guns in your house." If the answer is yes, he turns down the job. Period. Smart guy, I think.

Although I entirely agree with Lauth that parents need to take these actions to keep their children safe (e.g., teaching about guns, making sure people don't have loaded weapons sitting around, etc.), I wonder what precipitated this message. In the past 9 years or so that I've been reading PTA notes, guns have never been mentioned.<br /><br />Pittsburgh and SWPA does currently have a very serious gun violence problem that was recently featured in National Geographic's Drugs Inc episode entitled "Pittsburgh Smack". Smack is a nickname for heroin. I care about gun violence and heroin use not deer in my garden.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2395310382514169324.post-23393116118963104462015-11-09T21:02:25.785-05:002015-11-09T21:02:25.785-05:00Nov. 9, 1:43 --
