"We feel that would not be fostered by allowing folks, whether they have the authority or not, to bring weapons onto campus, in particular firearms loaded firearms." So, the school district thinks it has the right to disobey a state law it doesn.t like. Typical liberal attitude.

This seems to hint that all students would behave badly if they found said firearm. Maybe...maybe not.

“Even if it’s a totally legitimate person with a legitimate permit, can you adequately guarantee that it will not fall into the hands of a student?” Moran asked. “You can’t.”
Neither can you guarantee a student or anyone else will bring a gun to school. The law makes no such guarantee but only makes those who propose it feel good that they have done something.

But School Board Chairman Mike Moran, a retired lieutenant with the Medford Police Department, said he's worried that the firearm could fall into the hands of a student. Sure. Look at how those kids at Columbine, Virginia Tech and other schools, took those firearms from the teachers and gunned down their classmates. /sarcasm

the teacher said she wants anonymity because she fears for her and her daughter's safety why would she think such a thing, I mean if people abhor guns they wouldn't consider using one, even on a member of the NRA!
It's our responsibility to provide a safe learning environment for our students and a safe working environment for our employees and you people who have applied for and obtained the constitutional right to carry a concealed weapon present a clear and present danger to the safety of every knife carrying student and miscreant in the school system.

Moran must have gone to court to change his name from its original spelling: M-O-R-O-N.

If there’s a state law overriding the local statue, what are we talking about here? This should be settled as hell. I love how the left calls the right ‘fascist’ and then rides roughshod over the democratic lawmaking process.

So, what's your plan when your students, staff and buildings are attacked by a person or persons armed with guns? Hiding under your desk doesn't get the job done.

"It's our responsibility to provide a safe learning environment for our students and a safe working environment for our employees," Gerking said in an interview late last week. "We FEEL that would not be fostered by allowing folks, whether they have the authority or not, to bring weapons onto campus, in particular firearms loaded firearms."Maybe if they would stop "FEELING" and start "THINKING", they would get a better prospective.
We need to make school zones into "Safety Zones", and shut down the killing fields
and, of course, they should be loaded guns--OMG!

So by that line of thinking, LEO's should not be exempt either, I mean what's to guarantee an Officer doesn't loose their sidearm? Mr Moran is a pompous ass...

So I assume they don't let armed police officers on campus, either?

Won’t happen in southern Oregon, hate to tell her.

I bet that the recent shootings on campus would not have happened if the idiots doing the shooting knew about 1/2 the teachers were armed.
