I am a teacher and I have a lifetime CCP. I would be willing to go through extensive training by law enforcement to be able to carry my gun in school. I feel that teachers would also need to pass a phycological evaluation as well to be able to carry. In addition, teachers would need to be able to pass certain test and scenarios to make sure they would be able to handle the situation appropriately.


All these requirements and restrictions for a constitutional right granted to all citizens because they dare engage in the profession of teaching? That imaginary border over which criminals step to do harm on campus carries none of those requirements, why should it for teachers?

It would only be required so that a teacher could carry a gun in a gun free zone. Only officers of the law have that right. Outside the school , the teacher wouldn't have these requirements.

As I mentioned in another reply. Should we deputize teachers as an extension of local law enforcements with jurisdiction only in the schools? Would this help with liablities and understanding of rights?
