Alan: American conservatives are "ejaculatory alarmists." One minute they become uncontrollably impassioned, and the next they are beset by post-coital exhaustion, searching about for the next sacrificial virgin. Remember Benghazi? In relative terms the tragic killing of four Americans was, politically, a trivial political that provoked more shouting and grunting than a particularly animated porn flick. Now, except for an occasional sigh from Sean Hannity, Benghazi is completely off radar. And rightly so. Here is how Benghazi would be seen through a lens of proportion-and-perspective. http://paxonbothhouses.blogspot.com/2012/10/cover-letter-to-beirut-bombing-mass.html)

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (AP) — When a gunman killed 26 children and staff at a Connecticut grade school, proposals to let teachers carry hidden guns into the classroom soon proliferated in many Republican-led states.
But less than four months later, the quest to put guns in schools has stalled in many traditionally gun-friendly states after encountering opposition from educators, reluctance from some governors and ambivalence from legislative leaders more focused on economic initiatives.
So far, South Dakota is the only state to respond with a new law allowing school personnel to carry guns into elementary and high schools. A similar proposal is poised for passage in Kansas. And Arkansas has enacted a new law allowing colleges to let staff with concealed gun permits bring their weapons on campus.
