What New Gun Law or Executive Action Would Have Prevented This?

BALTIMORE (AP) — Officials say a loaded handgun has been found in a fifth-grader’s backpack at an East Baltimore elementary school.

The Baltimore Sun (http://bsun.md/1Oup0WR ) reports that police were called to William Paca Elementary School before the start of the school day on Thursday because a school administrator reported finding the gun in the student’s bag

The school is located in the city’s McElderry Park neighborhood.

Baltimore City Public Schools spokeswoman Edie House-Foster says the unidentified student was taken to the Department of Juvenile Services.


No further information was released.

So by your logic, if a practice cannot be guaranteed to perfectly solve a problem, it's not worth attempting.

So...

Since police cannot prevent all crime, no point in having police.
Since medicine cannot prevent all illness, no point in having doctors.
Since insurance cannot prevent accidents, no point in having insurance.

and...

Since guns cannot prevent all harm to their owners, no point in having guns!

See how that works?

IOW, your "argument" is specious.
