Fallon is more deeply committed to disarming America than to protecting students.

Fallon doesn't think teachers "have it in them" to even try to save their students' lives.

I'll agree with her, there. Most would be out the door and halfway down the street at top speed before the first kids got shot. ;)

For that matter, Fallon doesn't think teachers "have it in them" to even try to save their students' lives.

Ms. Fallon ..... guess you didn't hear about the Va. Tech professor who blocked his classroom door against the shooter with his own body to give his students more time to jump out windows .... and was killed. He didn't even have a gun ....

Typical liberal BS....SUBMIT. Do not defend. SUBMIT to those that would harm you.

Fallon, you are a piece of slug excrement!

Professor Liviu Librescu, Rest in Peace and Thank You for your sacrifice!

Excerpt:

One of Lebrescu's students, Alec Calhoun said "When students realized the sounds were gunshots, they started flipping over desks for hiding places. Others dashed to the windows of the second-floor classroom, kicking out the screens and jumping from the ledge of the room." Calhoun said that just before he climbed out the window, he turned to look at the professor (Librescu), who had stayed behind to block the door. He was killed by gunshots while attempting to block the gunman's entrance.

The mere threat of weapons in the classroom would deter a lot of wanna-be shooters. Except in the hands of the likes of Ms. Fallon.

More proof of how ignorant and useless those in “education” have become.

This teacher’s union president wants schools to remain victim buffets, because she is a coward. It only takes one armed and brave member of the faculty to minimize a tragedy.

"They don't have it in them to aim at a student and kill him."

She must not be from Texas (a transplant). She obviously doesn't understand the way things are done in Texas and the character of the people who live there.

"We do enough damage to kids already," she did not go on to say.

Initially I thought it was a joke. However, after a couple of media calls, we realized it wasn't and we were asked whether our district would consider it, and it was absolutely no way would we consider it.

"And it was absolutely no way would we consider it?"

It, it, it, it, it, it, ..... speak proper English, beeeyotch!!!!

She can't do it,so no one else can. Liberal Projection is endlessly fascinating.

I had several teachers that would relish the thought of plugging a student or two. IMHO the problem will not be a lack of volunteers, but an overabundance of them.

do i need a /sarc tag?

My sons graduated from a school system where the assistant superintendent was a Lt. Col. in the Army. I think if armed it would be one shot one kill.

When I was a Sr in HS a new teacher came on staff, he taught 3rd yr (Jr) English. He had a Black Belt in Karate and everyone was scarred *shirtless* of him. Even the baddest of us Greaser bad a__es gave him a wide berth in the halls. Then we had the male Gym Teachers who could also kick butt. Like the Varsity Football Coach - his body fat was like zero.

There has to be a few of these types left. (I would hope)

I personally know many teachers that I would want to be armed and do believe they would defend the students. I might feel different if I lived somewhere else, but one thing to remember is the teacher who reacted in such a situation would also be defending themselves. The idea that they would flee and leave the students- if the teacher could flee to avoid the situtation, then couldn’t the students also get away? To me getting away from the shooter if possible is not a bad thing- especially if possible to get the students out. Every scenerio would be different of course, but to just say the teachers wouldn’t defend the students off hand is not fair. I think teachers that arm themselves are or should be prepared to use that firearm in defense of themselves and their students, and teachers that would not be willing to do that would likely not want to be armed to begin with.
