I'm often amazed that people of my own generation, who've probably had similar experiences to me, can ask such twatty qustions of schools. Whereas I am the voice of reason, most other parents I meet are paranoid control freaks who need to get out more!User76 said:What is going wrong

There is precedant, and IMO this is not as ridiculous a law as it seems on the outset.
Before anyone starts up about the rocket fired being shoulder launched, I know this, and it makes it less likely for such an open attack to happen again. More covert means would be more likely, like pretending to be a photographer, snapping our countries seat of government. Then whoosh! OMG, I swear officer, it didn't do that last time I used it.
