It would be nice if we could all be afforded the opportunity to record our last words before we die, but that’s not exactly how it works. On 9/11/01, we did not have technological wonders in our pockets for those poor people to use to record their last moments. So what would you have argued for then? What is it that makes you think kids these days are so special that they somehow deserve to be afforded something more?

There is countless senseless death all around us every day. You need to accept that.

Don’t force phones into schools because you can’t accept the grim world in which we live. Hate me all you want for it, but your argument is thin.
