Make the White House a gun free zone?

Have you signed the latest petition at the official citizens-generated petition site at the White House? It calls for the White House to be a gun free zone. From Powerline:

Eliminate armed guards for the President, Vice-President, and their families, and establish Gun Free Zones around them

Gun Free Zones are supposed to protect our children, and some politicians wish to strip us of our right to keep and bear arms. Those same politicians and their families are currently under the protection of armed Secret Service agents. If Gun Free Zones are sufficient protection for our children, then Gun Free Zones should be good enough for politicians.

Heh. But really, the logic is hard to argue with. Schools are gun-free zones because we care so much about our children’s safety, right? Well, unless your children go to, say, Sidwell Friends. No need to take any risks where really important kids are concerned! Follow the link above to sign the petition, which has nearly 18,000 signatures so far.
