The most compelling argument for students keeping their phones in class is also the worst one, says LZ Granderson .

Granderson: It's utterly ridiculous that guns have to be part of this conversation.

Other countries have had to have the cell-phones-in-class conversation, but other countries don't have "What about our regularly scheduled school shootings?" he says.

For every kid killed by a firearm there are many more who are seeing and experiencing it and having to live with that trauma.

We're losing the ability to solve problems on so many levels because we refuse to treat a crisis like a crisis.

We can't address the cell phones in class issue without also addressing the gun violence crisis issue.
