If your point is that school teachers are not responsible enough to

Why should school teachers not responsible enough to have guns? Or did
you mean 'in school' after 'guns'?

They can't even remember they shouldn't date the students. How are
they going to remember where they left their gun?


Perhaps in your next life, if there is one, you'll get a college degree
and not be so disdainful of those who did.

Absolutely right, and neither should tax cheats, bankruptcy fraud

I appreciate engineers, doctors, nurses, scientists and even, to some
extent, lawyers but just going to college, to say you went, seems
silly to me. There are plenty of guys like Bill Gates and Mark
Zuckerberg who agree with me. After a year or two they figured out
they had squeezed all the juice out of that lemon.



Some people attend college to learn how to "think".
Many people can do that naturally.

I see college as a necessity to achieve certain goals such as a career
choice of interest. Now-a-days it's probably even more important to
have the documented credentials. But, I agree, to attend college just
for the sake of attending college is probably a waste of time and money
for many.

The point is that having a teacher or even a former cop or FBI agent in
a school to protect the kids and teachers is fraught with stupidity and
danger in addition to that posed by a crazed shooter. The fact that two
of the three incidents were related to teachers is not the issue...the
issue is that these so-called solutions are simple-minded. Schools have
many entrances and windows, and even if these are locked, a determined
shooter would have no problem getting inside. And since most of them
don't care whether they live or die, they could shoot up several
classrooms before someone with a gun showed up to defend the kids. And
it is likely the "protector" would be shot, too.


I agree that untrained or marginally trained people are worse than
having nobody there at all but just assuming you are going to let an
active shooter go until they run out of ammo or a swat team can get
there is not a viable answer either.
Part of the answer might just be an alarm and good locks on the
classroom doors.

On the other hand, if these people were willing to go to Gunsite for a
couple weeks, I see no problem arming them.
Maybe if they taught proper self defense tactics in college, you would
be more in favor of it




Funny you should mention Gunsite Academy. :)

I have a university degree, and I agree with Gregg. And what does this
have to do with what Gregg stated?


Harry still hasn't figured out why Most of us think he's a turd.

My 28 year old (tattooed and pierced) is making 60 a year and she got
sick one month into college and never went back. Last I knew that's
about twice what my 30 yo with a masters is making. Not to mention my 30
yo had to change courses at least once, maybe twice and still doesn't
really work in the field she paid so much to learn. So, bottom line is
both worked their asses off for experience, difference is one got paid
while doing it, the other paid dearly and will be for a long time for it..

Many people can do that naturally.

Fortunately my parents got me out of the public school system and into
a high school that taught me to think at an earlier age. By the time
my peers were juniors in college, I was running a half million dollar
territory at IBM. By the end of that year IBM thought I could I could
think well enough to go out of the country alone on a support calls.

My daughter's father in law is a retired history professor and he
openly says, liberal arts college is not designed to teach you a
marketable job skill.



Hehehe. Love it.

That's Harry's problem in a nutshell. He knows nothing of anything
worthwhile.
