It'll be interesting to see what happens when the first sort of trained
teacher ends up shooting a kid "by sccident."

Hey, this is the United States. Rather than deal with the issues, we arm
teacher.

We arm everybody that is truly expected to protect and defend. Now,
that responsibility falls to those people acting in loco parentis.

Deal with the issues? There is no squishy idealism debate of issues.
This is about crazy armed people looking for a soft underbelly and
finding it among unprotected children. This isn't necessarily about
guns, either. Other countries are having the same problem with crazies
employing knives, machetes, and hatchets to eviscerate and hack off
school children's body parts.

It is already legal for teachers in Utah to carry. I applaud them for
seeking further training in pursuit of protect the children and fellow
employees.

An interesting thing is I have not heard about any shootings in Utah.
I googled Utah Shooting and I got this story, one story about a drug
raid and a ****load of stories and ads for places to shoot.

Maybe those Mormons are too scary to start up any **** with.

So are you ASSuming that the teachers toting guns to school will be any
more mentally stable than the general population of the U.S. where the
shooters have come from?

No, you are ASSuming that these teachers wouldn't get more scrutiny and
training than "the general population"? Stupid, or dishonest? Anyway,
just like pilots who carry, they are trained and watched more carefully.
And as the poster below noted, most of these shooters are not "part of
the general society". Like alcoholics or heroin addicts almost across
the board these folks are withdrawn and basically non-functional in
society. Fired from jobs, living in some fantasy world somewhere... not
working at teachers and continuing training in firearms use and safety...

So, you think the shooters are representative of the general
population? Interesting logic, that.

He hasn't thought it that far ahead... to do so may mean he changes his
opinion and progressives are opposed to that, afraid they won't be
welcome at the parties anymore

Who else comes from the general population?
