Kansas elementary school teacher Daniel Nagel faces a year in prison and job loss for going above and beyond the call of duty and protecting his students with his concealed-carry permit.

On Monday, May 20, Dan was teaching gym and carrying his handgun in an inside-the-waistband hip holster. So, there was zero chance that his gun would fall out of his holster or hurt his students and a 100 percent chance that Daniel could defend his students if a gunman breached the school. Daniel is highly competent with firearms; he practices at the range monthly and also takes yearly classes to advance his firearm skills.
Another teacher observed what must have been the silhouette of Daniel’s handgun beneath his clothes while he was actively teaching his students. This teacher-observer panicked and told the principal that Daniel had a gun. Without investigating, the principal immediately called the police. Despite the fact that Daniel is a concealed-carry permit holder with a spotless record, the police arrested him for carrying in a “gun free zone.”
A few police officers tried to remove Daniel’s gun from his holster and were unable so Daniel had to tell them how. Which, again, speaks to how secure Daniel’s gun was at his side. To reiterate, there was no chance that his gun would endanger children; there was a very large chance that Daniel could use his gun to save their lives. The Wichita Police Department is a 12-minute drive and seven miles away from White Elementary. In the event of a mass attack, hundreds of defenseless children and teachers could be killed before the cops would arrive.

I am sorry son. I don't even know where to start. You spell words incorrectly. Your grammar is atrocious and I will never, ever call your Momma for anything. Your MOTHER?!? Really?!?
No. Please do. I can hardly wait.
Get a clue man you can see my handle, now if you are so worried about my use of the key board, and it’s end result.
DON’T READ THE POSTS! JACKWAGON!
good place to bump the thread
Go into a restricted area of the airport with your concealed gun. When they arrest you, defend yourself with your argument. Get back to me how that goes.
Really? The teacher in the article isn’t laughing. The only fools laughing are armchair commandos such as yourself.
The task here is to weigh the circumstances.
1) Breaking a silly little law of political correctness.
2) Standing there helpless as children are slaughtered.
Conceal what lawlessness? Society is being done a public service by armed civilians, post office isn’t a secure restricted area. No guns on college campuses right? B.S. Ever heard of ROTC? How about the pistol, rifle team? It’s possible to fly with firearms easily, restricted areas of airports is not the same as a post office, get back to you on what, common sense? What’s next comparing entering the White House? Your first clue of enhanced security areas is magnometers. Sure restrictions high security areas like many government buildings. The problem is we’ve gone from basic common sense with all the gun control edicts to an unnecessary bureaucracy that has solved nothing.
