Showing Original Post only (View all)Guns in the Classroom.... let's think about this for a minute.... [View all]
My daughter is an elementary school teacher so this hits home.
I gave her this hypothetical situation yesterday....
Let's say she has a gun in her classroom. It will be locked up, of course, to protect the kids safety. ( She already has a kid in her class (4th grade) that is obsessed with guns. )
So a "bad guy with a gun" barges into her classroom.
What is she going to do first? Go get the key and go unlock the gun safe.... while her kids could get killed?
Or is she going to protect her students?
What is she going to have time to do in that situation IF it ever happened?
What would you do first? Think about it.
And then tell me how having teachers armed will help them in an event like what happened in Connecticut?
From my perspective, I don't see how it will help to have the teachers armed, unless they wear their gun at all times.
