One drag queen did more to stop the gunman in Colorado than hundreds of cops could do in Texas. We should put one drag queen at every school, clearly kids would be safer.

Edit: Correction, I'm now reading that it was a trans woman not a drag queen. Still, an unarmed veteran and a trans woman did what 346 cops with a $4 million budget couldn't handle in Texas.
