What kind of personal trauma is any "armed" teacher who fails to stop a shooter going to suffer?
Think of the potential guilt that will be carried by any teacher who fails for some reason to stop the threat.
Pukes usually don't like to put money toward education, so I'm pretty any therapy or counselling will be up to the individual.

(3,248 posts)Pukes never seem to consider that school shooters are very crafty in how they get their guns.
Putting a gun right in the classroom makes it rather convenient.

(4,846 posts)I am just talking about kids who are curious about guns. They will somehow get through the lockbox and get the gun out to play with. Then we will have a lot of accidental shootings because we place guns in schools for whatever reason.

(4,846 posts)A bad idea all around.
But somehow, this will become the "solution" because republicans refuse to have any kind of sensible gun control.

(3,248 posts)The problem is most of the gun nuts believe that wearing masks during a pandemic is government tyranny.
They literally took their guns to state Capitol buildings over masks.
