At least he is pissing off Democrats really bad. The great thing about Rand is that these "blunders" are just going to ingratiate him more and more with standard partisan hacks in the GOP. Liberty infiltrates the GOP establishment with Rand Paul at the helm.

That's the thing, he didn't make a blunder. Media channels are just saying he said something he didn't.

Ya I dunno if teachers "should be" armed, but they certainly should be able to if they choose.

Bingo!! I don't think we should force teachers to be armed. But if they choose to do so then they should be able to do it.

He never said "arm teachers".

USAtoday video of the statement

"If my kids were at that school, I would have preferred that the teacher had concealed-carry and had a gun in her desk. Or the principal. Is it perfect? No. Would they always get the killer? No. Would an accident sometimes happen in a melee? Maybe. But nobody (at the Connecticut school) had any defense, and he just kept shooting until he was tired and he decided to shoot himself."

Does that sound like "Arm all teachers?"

This roughly the same as if Barney Frank said he wanted gay marriage legalized, and then the news said "Frank: Everyone should be forced to get a gay marriage."
