Because norhing reduces casualties more than ignoring the cause of the problem and adding more guns.
An armed police presence MAYBE... Playing Cluedo with my mum while I was at Uni: "You did WHAT? With WHO? WHERE???"

Yes, to be fair he did also suggest having veterans on site, which i think may work.

Still just a bandaid for the actual problem, though. Playing Cluedo with my mum while I was at Uni: "You did WHAT? With WHO? WHERE???"  RE: Donald Trump wants to arm teachers with guns

As a teacher...
#1. Are we going to get paid more for this? My guess is no. They didn't pay us more when they required we become CPR certified (at least that made sense) #2. What happens when a teacher decides to go ballistic on their students, and shoots up a school? Do you then give guns to the kids? Eventually everyone has a gun. That's the goal isn't it? #3. The NYPD has roughly 40% firing accuracy. What do you really think our accuracy is going to be? #4. What happens when I shoot the school shooter, then--another teacher, mistaking me for the gunman shoots me. Then the SWAT team arrives, and witnessing that teacher having shot me--the swat team mistakes the other teacher for an active shooter, and shoots them. Do my husband and kids get paid $3M in NRA money to hopefully make it all go away? Or does that money just go directly to Marco Rubio? #5. I'm 5'4, and weigh roughly 110 lbs, how hard would it be for a student to overpower me and get my gun?

Screening for weapons should be performed prior to entry to the school (if really required), not by people whose primary intent is educating the nation's youth. The orange-haired shitgoblin is just parroting something someone else said on this issue.
If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.

I think anyone who come within sight of trump or trump’s children during any of their public appearance should help guaranty their security by being required to carry a loaded gun.

I personally don't want to be within many miles of the Chump family or any of their sycophants.

Generally, they quickly become tools to oppress students on behalf of the administration, especially if they are minority students. https://www.theatlantic.com/education/ar...ts/414286/ Quote:There are about 19,000 sworn police officers stationed in schools nationwide, according to U.S. Department of Justice estimates, and stories about their school-discipline disasters cross Mo Canady’s desk all the time. It's a shitty idea. No wonder the WLB is all for it! |
