No, you're not paying attention or thinking.
America was once a land of volunteers, prior to big government's total control and regulation over everything.
Why not use parent armed volunteers?
Use the local police or sheriff to ONLY conduct backgrounds and maybe provide some free training for volunteers, seek out military veterans and or others with experience to volunteer...Government teachers are bad enough, and they need to teach...Use volunteers...Does this make too much sense?
You could put 5 qualified and screened armed parents in and around every damn school in the country at very *minimal* cost.
WTF is wrong with that?
Oh, I know what's wrong with it...The government can't control it regulate it or concoct more ways to raise taxes!
right, armed volunteer parents that want to spend 40+hrs/wk walking around a school...for free
