PING!

Should schoolteachers be armed and ready?

This ping list is for the "other" articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. If you want on/off this list, please freepmail me. The main Homeschool Ping List by DaveLoneRanger handles the homeschool-specific articles.

Our assistant superintendent is a Lt. Colonel in the Army....of all people allowed to carry a gun in our school I think she would be qualified....I did see a picture of her with an AK-47, that works too....

Yes 42%.

Works for Israel. They haven't lost any kids in schools since the '70's.

I would vote yes on the poll just because I am pro gun and pro people taking care of themselves. But in practice, I think the average teacher packing heat in the classroom, would be a terrible idea. That's why I am not voting.

Seems needed to me, but I doubt if it is allowed.

Teachers with guns? You got to be kidding!

No way...never...not! For so many reasons no! That is the most insane idea I've heard in the last 10 minutes.

Professionally trained security guards, locked doors, and searches...yes. Teachers with guns? NOT!!!

Today, our school was closed because one of the janitors found a "threatening note". Talk about scaring the shitte out of us. If arming our teachers is what it takes to get this under control, so be it.

Except my math teacher. Don't arm her...

I don't know - there's alot of crazy teachers too.
The sex abuse crisis in the schools is much worse than it ever was in the catholic church...do we want to read about kids getting coerced into sex at gunpoint?

Besides - a majority of teachers are lefties...the sight of a gun frightens them. I don't want them trying to handle guns around my kids. I'm guessing my kids would do a better job in that regard.

Lock up the sociopaths and deport the Islamists.

The guns are a distraction from the real problem.
