should probably just ban schools altogether. Make every kid get home-schooled. No teacher-student affairs, no bullying, no fights, fricking, stealing, kids dying in car wrecks on the way to school, no group of easy targets for a school shooter. less wasted tax dollars. No need to arm teachers.

Female teachers sleeping with students seems to have reached an epidemic based on your statement. Therefor your point about the risk of a very large % of female teachers being emotionally unstable cannot be ignored. The risk is way too high to let women carry at school and this cannot possibly be argued against by any sane person.

Do we really want a few hundred thousand female teachers that are inherently emotionally unstable carrying weapons at school? No way. You are clearly onto something overlooked by everyone else.

Arming teachers would never work. We need ninjas in school. That way we still keep guns out of school but also offer protection for the students.

Also, anyone can be blindsided and have their weapon taken at any point. Teachers are basically surrounded all day. No way arming teachers ends well in a lot of schools.


Actually fingerprint technology for weapons has existed for some time. It is not a retrofit solution so the weapon has to be purchased with this.

Could easily require that any teacher that carries at school have a gun with fingerprint technology. It would be useless to anyone else except as a hammer. This should be a requirement whether male or female. Trump talked about giving people bonuses or upping their pay by $X per year for carrying. Perhaps part of that benefit is being issued the proper type of gun with this technology.

Really very simple to make guns safe around kids with technology and just a little common sense.

This statement is laughable. Fingerprint tech is very new, and there's only one manufacturer using it, and they make a .22.

There are aftermarket fingerprint systems, but also extremely new. Like last 3 years new. Also, these systems don't fit all guns.

They have had magnetic triggers, etc but that's not fingerprint.

Colt looked into fingerprint tech in the early 2000's I think. The backlash was so great that they scraped it and never went back.

Not easily. Research fingerprint guns and get back to us.

Sure, in your hypothetical lala land where this has existed for decades. Here in the real world, it hasn't. Why is a 19-year-old kid cited as the inventor of fingerprint gun tech, in 2015?

This stuff hasn't been around for a while and it's not easily available.

Also, and more importantly, as I mentioned in my previous post, what about the teachers. Several national teacher organizations have come out and said arming teachers is not what their members (who are teachers) want.

Not that new at all. Think you are confusing new with 100% reliable. Back in the early 2000s it was not advanced enough for life/death situation. Had a 1% or so error of not recognizing fingerprint, pressure points, etc..

For some reason the NRA was totally against it. They were the primary roadblock. Likely they blocked it because smart technology was tied to legislation and not the free market.

An 18 or 19 year old did not invent finger print technology for a gun. As you already said, Colt tried it in early 2000s so there is a thing called PRIOR ART when it comes to patents. This kid did something significantly better than Colt did 15+ years earlier.

Of course I had a phone that had no internet access in 2001 also.

At the Pasadena, TX gunshow in 2014 they did a demonstration with smart gun technology with blanks. It worked as it was demonstrated. Audience members could not make it fire.

As with anything, the more it is used and available, the better things get. If the 2A get under enough threat you won't believe how much smart technology will suddenly appear and be available.

I don’t know. I know a lot of fairies that teach too. Just scratch the armed teacher idea and hire legit security. And by security, I don’t mean the pussy cops in Parkland.

I actually kind of like this idea. They have the key to every door in the place, know the school like the back of their hand. I'm sure some of these janitors are ex-military or were policemen back in Mexico.

No. Effeminate males may be even less rational than an average female.

You only want one or two teachers armed in every school?
Maybe. The only teachers I would want armed are teachers that are comfortable with using a gun and want to be armed.

Shoving a gun into an unwilling or uncomfortable teacher's hand is a bad idea.

My kid's female teacher was a MP before getting out of the service and getting her teaching degree. She is exactly who should be armed.

You should have to take self defense classes and legitimately pass the class. If you can't hold your own in the class you shouldn't be allowed to cary.
