Re: Guns save lives in Peshawar
Dear AD,
Brave heart people did what could have been another massacre.
All like minded people must speak against this menace of terrorism which has become a thriving industry now a days.

Rozia Altaf, a police officer in northwestern Pakistan, recalled the first time she took a group of schoolteachers to a shooting range for rifle and pistol instruction.
“They were so shy and scared of the weapons at first,” Ms. Altaf said. “But once they got over it, they did really well.”
For schools in Pakistan and Afghanistan, the lesson plan for the year focuses on the letter G: gates, guards and guns.
Since December, when Pakistani Taliban militants attacked an army-run school in the northwestern city of Peshawar, claiming the lives of 150 people, most of them children, schools around Pakistan have strengthened their security efforts. In neighboring Afghanistan, where schools have been attacked previously, a prominent U.S.-sponsored international school closed its doors.
The stepped-up safety measures underscore how much more vulnerable students, parents and teachers in the region feel after the gruesome attack in Peshawar.
