If there were more responsible adults on school campus legally carrying concealed firearms, it would be a deterrent to mass murderes who target schools.
I agree, please post your comments here for the benefit of the "intellectually challenged" people in Olympia who have worked themselves into hysterics: http://www.haloscan.com/comments/theolympian/609260315/
This is not strictly true in Washington. The law says that adults carrying a CPL may carry a concealed pistol when dropping off or picking up their child from school.
Exactly how I feel. Right after Columbine when everyone was saying an incident like that could happen anywhere- I was somewhat reassured by the knowledge that I knew for a fact at least 2 employees at the school my children attended were armed. It made me feel good to know that, I'm amazed other parents do not feel the same.

Your line of thinking is EXACTLY why at public school I will never identify not only do both administrators have firearms easily accessible, but so do several teachers (one of whom is married to a law enforcement officer).
