In reply to the discussion: Are the president's kids more important than yours?" [View all]1983law
(213 posts)61. I do not agree with the NRA's ad
Mainly because it is a stupid strawman. But like I said earlier, we have 20 dead kids in Newtown, 12 in Columbine, and we are debating whether the president's kids are more important than all other's kids. I can assure you there are 32 parents that are not debating the special circumstances the president's kids are in--or that they are in a setting which could result in a massive tragedy. But I digress as I do not want to debate whether his kids should be home-schooled.

You should examine your head. Why are you sorry that your kids are important to you?
