I almost think that if you arm teachers, that weapon would be used for bad before it is used to stop a school shooting. Just my thoughts.
Where there is a will, there will be a way for these kids to do stupid shit.
Think it was on facebook or whatever, but someone I knew was teaching a weapons class to teachers and talked about how awkward and incompetant many were just handling it.
I think if you do arm them it needs to be just those who really want to, and go trhough such extensive training to be able to handle one.

When you walk into the Q how many armed guards are there? What portion of the ticket price goes toward that security?
Yes, you pay for armed security all the time; except when it comes to our most precious people. Senseless, but apparently politically correct.

                        Speaking of armed security, some HS events have them.QuakerOats;1603206 wrote:When you walk into the Q how many armed guards are there? What portion of the ticket price goes toward that security?
Yes, you pay for armed security all the time; except when it comes to our most precious people. Senseless, but apparently politically correct.
I wouldnt be against armed security, but I am not so confident about teachers.

                                Lol if you think armed police officers at sporting events are there to protect the athletes. 
Yes, that's a small part of why they're there, but not the sole reason.

Arm the teachers; curb the violence; protect the innocent.
Lol. There's so much wrong with everything you just said. But let's apply your idea to the situation this morning. A teenager in a crowded hallway starts stabbing people. The victims say they really had no idea what was going on until they noticed they were bleeding. So how does an armed teacher make that situation any better/safer?QuakerOats;1603194 wrote:Yes; it is not as simple as I made it sound ..............but we have to do much, much better.
We protect politicians, athletes, and celebrities with armed personnel; but we are not willing to do that for our children ......makes no sense.
Your comparison of protecting children with how we protect celebrities, politicians, etc. is apples to oranges. Most of those involved events have personnel/technology rooting out weapons before they enter the premises. I'm sure if all the schools across the country could afford that, then that's what they'd be doing already, right?
Conduct some research or have a rational thought before your first reaction is "we need to give teachers guns you ignorant liberals!!!11"
