And Slim just left town. Seriously though, this guy is a moron. He knows there are laws and rules and he consciously breaks both. Then he let’s someone spot his gun.... Stupid, stupid, stupid.

How odd
In April of this year Gov. Sam Brownback signed a bill allowing Kansas employees of public schools and colleges to carry concealed weapons, the Lawrence Journal-World reports.

Guess the teacher should have checked with the Principal before carrying.

He may be in jail, out of a job and have no teaching certificate before the summer is over...

The left is nothing but a bunch of pansies. They would rather have kids murdered than be around a gun.

I hate what this country has become.

I would hope he appeals this all the way to the Supremes. The Gun Free Zones are unconstitutional and are magnets for psycho/criminals to go on a shooting spree. This law needs to be repealed.

Lesson learned. If you’re going to C&C, do a better job of concealing it when in liberal zones.

Politically correct agitated wimps now make policy. Ordinary people suffer.

It is commendable that the guy was carrying a hand gun for protection of the school!
But on the other hand he did break the law and cause a panic incident. He knew the law as a concealed carry person. Until that law is repealed or changed it has to be obeyed. No one at the school could have even given him permission to carry.
Tough consequences but the law is the law!

In many areas, employees may leave their privately owned firearm locked in their vehicle in a school parking lot. I don’t know if this law applied in his jurisdiction.

If he’s got a conceal carry permit then he knew the rules. He made a poor choice and he’ll pay for it.

Jury nulification, it’s widely known to be used in the black community. It’s openly discussed. It’s time we start using it too.
Keep your personal views hidden during selection. Then vote not guilty, deliberate and argue as long as they want. (they’ll remove you and replace you with the alternate for “failure to deliberate”) Stay there and argue your point.

There are enough gun owners that trivial gun “crimes” like this should never win a conviction.

So, are the police expected to disarm when they visit a school?

Your statement falls on its face for the lack of logic.

He has (had) a CC “permit”.

I’ll lay odds of 9:2 that he’s a better shot with his sidearm than the top shooter on that force.

His sidearm was NOT seen, but a silhouette UNDER HIS SHIRT was SUSPECTED by someone in the employee area.

His sidearm was so well secured that he had to INSTRUCT the cop on how to remove it from its holster.

This defines unwarranted persecution, and you stand there cheering the JBT’s.

Gotta go battery dead

No it doesn't. Every American has a duty to ignore unconstitutional laws.

Yes, and a duty to vote to acquit. Their laws become meaningless unenforceable junk if juries refuse to convict.

I guess that’s all fine and dandy and you can do your duty behind bars. 55 mile an hr speed limit may be unconstitutional as well but drive 105mph and see what happens!

Yeah a truly smart individual would follow the rules and say "if only I had my gun," after an event happens and there's 30 more dead children at a school. Kind of like that woman who saw her parents gunned down at Luby's in TX all those years ago.....she now travel the country giving pro-gun speeches and explaining that if she'd had her gun, which would've been illegally concealed, her parents would not have been gunned down.

At some point people in this country need to wake up and realize that maybe, just maybe, the rules/laws our "betters" set for us aren't in our best interest. I have little hope of that though because many are content to be sheep.

For another example - I building I worked in had a door in which to open (whether entering or departing) you had swipe a badge with a magnetic strip. According to the rules, only one person was able to go through at a time. If you were exiting, there was a green button that was labeled to indicate pushing the button automatically unlocked the door.

One day, the fire alarms started going off; flashing lights, sirens, buzzers, the whole nine yards. You could smell burning electronics. As I made my way to the exit, I saw a line of about 30 people, each diligently allowing the door to slowly shut after the individual in front of them passed through.......then they would swipe their badge and pass.

I told them "you can burn in an orderly fashion if you want to, but this is here for a reason," as I pushed the button and exited with 6 of my co-workers. Dutifully the individual who was rightfully next to exit, allowed the door to close behind us before swiping his badge to exit.

They had been hounded and expressly informed at the the badge in/out and one-at-a-time rules.........it overrode common sense because they'd not been told what to do in a fire/emergency. But at least thy followed the rules.
