Why don’t they make every public school a police station sub station and man it with one or two armed police officers? Just kick out one of the administrators and give the office to the police?
Also they have armed guards at banks to protect the money, but no armed guards at schools to protect our children.
It isn’t hard to train someone to be proficient with a weapon. The military does it on a daily basis with thousands of young Americans.
A school teacher is an employee of the state, the same as the highway patrol, and I see no reason that part of the requirement for a teacher license should not be a requirement to attend relevant portions of that state patrol class.
In that scenario, every teacher is a trained guard.
And students won’t sass back so easily. :>)
