In reply to the discussion: Oklahoma Will Consider Law Allowing Teachers To Bring Guns To School [View all]HockeyMom
(14,337 posts)with a teacher and a gun. Wonderful teacher, who unfortunately was very depressed after his divorce and losing custody of his kids. All the kids loved him and my daughter always talked about how great Mr. P her Science teacher was. Well, maybe not exactly.
Mr. P one night went back to his Science Lab and shot himself in the head. Fortunately, he was discovered the next morning by the custodian and not the KIDS. Horrible. WHY did he choose to commit suicide in the school where a child could find him? Maybe because it was the placed he loved so much?
The kids were received counseling for just the trauma of this. My own daughter did. She cried for days and refused to go in that Lab.
This not a made up "story". I guess I have had too many experiences in my 64 years. No, I don't want teachers, or me, with guns in schools.
