Well, like the anti-gun crowd says, "What happens the first time a student kills another student
with a rock to the head?"

And, I can just imagine a gun going off and 30 kids running for the 5-gallon bucket of rocks. Ain't
gonna happen. I'd much rather the teacher reach for a pistol.

If the teacher is not well trained, they have as good a chance of
hitting a student.
If I was doing it there would be a half dozen rocks under each desk
but I agree that would require discipline in the schools and we have
very little of that.


So train the teacher. I'll bet a whole lot would show up three days early to be shown how to safely
handle a handgun.

I sure as hell wouldn't want 180 rocks laying on the floor of the classroom as I tried to walk
around helping kids solve a math problem. Would the janitors be required to pick them all up every
day before sweeping the floors?
