Think back to all the teachers you had. How many of them would you want to have a gun on them or in their desk? 12/19/2012 12:43:22 PM |

^the first three of your examples are people who are trained to use guns (or airplanes). think back to your teachers you had growing up. how many should have been strapped in the classroom?

This will NEVER happen places the majority of the country live, in cities and suburbs.
I do admit if be fine with it in rural places like that though. 12/19/2012 12:51:47 PM |

Not a damn one, leave the gun toting to the SROs
Plus most of these teachers are easy to ambush and overpower 12/19/2012 12:56:14 PM |

And then with the relationships that develop it'll be tough for a teacher to pull the trigger on her or his student if it needs to be done 12/19/2012 12:59:20 PM |

Don't think its possible to have specific teachers that are also trained? A week of training per year for qualification? Extra bump in pay to have a lockbox in their room to use only after a lock-down code-red procedure?12/19/2012 1:03:49 PM |

Taking a little class once a year is not going to help you manage a conflict
Someone who spent their educational career being force fed the opposite...which is legalities and letting kids do what they want without discipline
That's a hell of a 180 12/19/2012 1:07:03 PM |

Sure, that's possible, and maybe not a terrible idea. But again, I think back to all my teachers over the years, and there are very, very few that I would be comfortable with having a gun in class, even if they were trained.12/19/2012 1:07:53 PM |

Teachers already manage to do it just fine in a town in Texas.
We're not talking about arming every single teacher, but having a few thrown in there that have the proper training wouldn't hurt and may one day save a lot of lives. May even be a deterrent. But at least give these poor teachers the option. They are already hugely underpaid massively valuable parts of our society, why not allow them to defend the children they have devoted their lives to if necessary?12/19/2012 1:10:33 PM |

If teachers are going to fuck students they're gonna shoot them for trifling reasons
^i just don't feel teachers need guns, what's wrong with putting more SROs in schools and leaving it at that?

I think that would be ideal but school districts are already having a hard enough time paying their bills. Giving teachers a 5% raise and include a week of training per year (lets be honest, that's probably more than an average police officer receives) would be a better way to spend the limited funds.
This would be strictly volunteer, as well as FBI / Psych evaluations every year. I know plenty of teachers that would step up, and they've never owned a gun before - but they'd do anything for their kids12/19/2012 1:16:53 PM |

i think the idea is that if you are a teacher and a CHL holder then you should be allowed to carry on school grounds if you wish, and I support this. 12/19/2012 1:49:00 PM |

and if you had bothered to read the article, all of the teachers who carry (or will carry) are trained specially [b]and hold a concealed carry permit (with all of the training for that as well)
