If the teacher had been armed she might have been able to stop this slaughter - that's the only thing that would have been effective! It's time that we got rid of this PC Crap and armed teachers, principals, etc so that our children aren't sitting ducks for all the crazies to kill at will.

This teacher is Amish. They are as far from "PC" as one can get.

If the teacher had been armed, it would have been for hunting purposes. The Amish do not shoot people, even in self defense.

We don't need your "if only" comments here.

Please. I'm hardcore pro-2nd Amendment. But that doesn't wash here.

This guy walked into a one-room school building armed with two handguns and a shotgun. Facing pregnant women or women carrying infants. If the teacher would have had a gun and gone for it, it would have been futile and could have increased the death toll if the perp simply started firing at that point.

Sometimes there is stark evil in the world that simply will exert its will over our existence. No what-ifs that you or I could ever conjure up could ever counter it.

This is one of those situations. All we can do is pray such evil crawls back into the hole from which it came.
