Conservative Friends, Why do you want more State employees armed?

As a Libertarian, I'm torn on this issue. On one hand, I'm all for anyone owning and carrying a gun for whatever reason. On the other hand, there's no way I want another armed agent of the State. Do you want an untrained first grade teacher leaving her weapon on the floor of an elementary school bathroom? Or, do you want a State trained and licensed person administering protection?

Because cops kill brown people and they hope teachers are the same

In my community they are already armed and protect our schools. So, nothing will change.

I never said “give teachers guns” like was stated on Fake News @CNN & @NBC. What I said was to look at the possibility of giving “concealed guns to gun adept teachers with military or special training experience - only the best. 20% of teachers, a lot, would now be able to...immediately fire back if a savage sicko came to a school with bad intentions. Highly trained teachers would also serve as a deterrent to the cowards that do this. Far more assets at much less cost than guards. A “gun free” school is a magnet for bad people. ATTACKS WOULD END!

I want competent, willing teachers and administators to be able to exercise their right to carry a gun in school to protect themselves and students if they choose to.

These ignorant leftist kids from Florida seem to have all the faith in the world in their leftist teachers, but they don't trust them to carry a weapon?

I think anyone legally licensed to carry, who works at the school, should be allowed to do so. If not the schools need to provide for their protection in similar ways to how they do in other gun free zones.

I love the extreme examples, like the one in the OP.

"You want a retarded, blind, untrained kindergarten teacher carrying an AR so she can just let a 6 year old take it and mow down the whole class? No thanks I'd rather a Navy Seal in every classroom because they are the only ones who are capable of handling such a complex item as a gun"

This is exactly how you sound and you wonder why no one takes you seriously. GFY


I'm sorry that you and your pussy leftist friends are afraid of guns, but most of us grown folks aren't so we'll handle it for you, sweetheart

Holy strawman. Who has ever suggested this?

How many first graders are showing up to school shooting up the place?

Second, do you understand that these things usually take place for anywhere between three-five minutes, yet it takes the police at least five minutes to even get to the school grounds?

Armed teachers can stop this before it gets bad better than the cops can. By the time the cops show up, it's too late.

Yes, like the idea that we’re going to turn elementary, and middle school teachers into marksmen in crisis situations.

Have you ever met an elementary or middle school teacher? If it weren’t for elementary and middle schools, they’d be completely useless. A bunch of women whose day job is long division and coloring books are going to put down a mentally deranged person hellbent on killing everyone. I bet ten out of ten end up under their desks sobbing and pissing themselves. I guess you could arm the waterheaded PE coach, but he’s probably more useless than the art teacher.

Law enforcement knew about this kid and most of the others. It’s on them. No fricking teacher was going to end this with a pistol.

I want to get rid of the fricked up public school system, which would make this a much simpler matter to address.

Amazing how logic and common sense destroy liberal talking points every single time.

Your argument is flawed right out of the gate. Have yet to see anyone argue any teacher that has no gun training should bring a gun to school. JFC.

You are a special kind of fricktard. Congrats.

I want to absolutely abolish all federal involvement in primary and secondary education and then arm my local schools to the teeth, or not, depending on whatever the hell we decide to do. Those fairy-arse schools in the northeast and California might need to be attacked a few times before they wise and up and defend their helpless children, but we will be just fine down here.

Under my proposal there are no state employees being armed for pay.

I propose that we issue one AR15 and 100 rounds of ammo to every student who enters the school. That way when some maniac goes Postal, she is surrounded by armed students who refuse to be victims.

So, these shooters are disturbed first graders? Really? That's why you think we're going to arm 1st grade teachers?

I want more law abiding citizens armed. The 2nd Amendment is my concealed weapons permit.
