As we've seen, your opinions are rarely fact adjacent, let alone based on actual facts.
ETA: You seem to be falling prey to the myth of "good guys with guns" who will allegedly stop bad guys with guns. They are a myth.
If that's not true, why it is that school shootings are far more common in California than in Texas (California being the state with the highest number of school shootings)? In Texas, teachers are usually armed. In California, teachers are almost never armed.
School teachers in Texas are not ‘usually armed’. There are 1200 school districts in Texas only a quarter of those districts have armed staff. And, since which schools have armed staff is kept secret, it’s extremely unlikely that this is a deterrent (the psycho who shot up the school in Uvalde last year had no way of knowing if staff were armed).
