So given that you've started multiple threads with variations of the psychological comfort knowing a teacher carrying, I'm not sure if you're just arguing for the validity of that comfort (I'll buy that) or the objective effectiveness of it as well:
I don't have kids, so I've got no skin in this game. But I watched that video last night from inside one of the classrooms that had dead kids in it and I can't imagine the fear those kids and teachers felt being defenseless in those rooms.

I guarangoddamntee you, every fricking kid and adult in those rooms would have liked to have been armed to protect themselves. But we have these pussy arse progressives that won't allow it. Then they scream about gun control.

What a great plan.

Arm the kids!

A great idea to give people whose brains haven't finished developing weapons.

frick it...might as well set up machine gun emplacements in front of every school.

Sponsored by the NRA of course.

Five pages... I didn't read all the responses, but the easy answer is my kids have been trained in what they should do.

Open field shooter, run. Idiot in the classroom that is an active threat, respond based on proximity. My kids are normal red blooded Americans... They'll fight if they have to, and I've taught them how to do that. Fortunately, their school is a rural school, and l know the administration, security and teachers. Any threat won't make it to the children.

Oh asucuck1, you're so ignorant and illiterate.

I never proposed arming students.

Go suck the jizz from the guy that banged your wife tonight.

If the latter, which seems far more likely, then yes, I think there is a close to zero chance it would have made any difference

If the fricking coach that took a bullet for his students would have been armed, do you think there would have possibly been a different outcome?


I don't get the people with the mindset that if a possible solution is not 100% effective than there is not point in doing it. If that coach had been given the choice of being unarmed, or armed, but with only a 1% chance of taking down the shooter I have no doubt about which he would have chosen.
