There are a lot of underlying issues that have nothing to do with taking away guns. Bullying in schools, mental health, parents not being involved in their children's lives, unacceptable behavior at school being allowed to continue etc... I do have a right to own a gun. For protection, hunting, sport etc... it is our right and I'll be damned if someone going to take that away. I have a right to protect my family and myself. There are other attacks in schools that are from stabbings, acid, etc... people run people down with cars. It's not the weapon of choice that is the issue, it's the person behind it. Now I'm all for some changes when it comes to the gun laws. Background checks need to improve, if you have depression, anger issues, attempted suicide etc.. than you shouldn't be allowed to own a gun, parents need to keep theirs secured, but just like criminals find guns, so can anyone else. You can even go on Craigslist and buy a gun.

Thank you, will a RN cover nursing facilities and smaller clinics or will they mainly be in hospitals or how does it work?

Will the clinicals differ between LVN school and RN school? I'm looking at going LVN than taking the bridge program to become a RN (faster option) or waiting until I get accepted into a RN school. Just wondering if the clinicals I will have as a LVN will be different than the ones I would have as a RN?

I apologize if this should be posted in a better topic area. This is my first time on allnurses. The RN program at my local school gets hundreds of applicants and its a lottery program. The LVN and LVN-RN program get a significant amount less. I do know this last time around they had to expand the application deadline to fill in spots for the LVN program. What I am debating between is a) getting all the prerequisites done and applying to a RN program and hoping for the best or know I will have to pay for a private school or b) apply for the LVN (still not a for sure acceptance but more likely) complete the program, take the test, complete the prerequisites for the RN and apply for the bridge program I am not planning on working if I go LVN route, as soon as I graduated id be focused on the additional schooling to get into the bridge program. any recommendations on what the best route is? are there going to be differences in the clinicals I do between the different programs?
