Quote:The goal: 10 marshals (teachers trained to carry a gun) in every school, which would equate to 37,000 statewide. The state would cover the costs of background checks, drug testing, psychological exams and 132 hours of training. The bill does provide a one-time $500 stipend for those who volunteer to have a gun.
Woo boy! $500, and they get to risk their lives to shoot a mass shooter in the event of an attack. What a sweet deal that one time $500 bonus is.
And of course they probably won't even provide the gun for the teachers, so that $500 bonus will be going toward a new glock. Funny enough I think that's about what they sell for. $500.
At least they included a requirement for psychological exams. Gee wonder why they don't do this to all people who just want to own a gun.
Meanwhile TODAY a GA teacher was arrested for firing a gun in a school.
AND my dad was a teacher, got drunk off his ass one day, fired his 38 TWICE with me in the room, in a very tiny townhouse. My late mom was a lifetime teacher and a mostly voting republican, even she thought arming teachers was bat shit insane. What are they going to do when a teacher snaps?
