This had to start in the Heartland, because “both Coasts” will fight this concept tooth and nail, and they will have their state governments doing all within their power to thwart it. And the problem is that these shootings are infrequent enough so as to blunt any positive data that armed teachers are making a difference, even though they would be simply by virtue of no shootings. Here in CA, any sheriff, and there are any number who would, who proposes this as a means to achieve safety would be dismissed from his office immediately.
Good points.
Yes, it will be opposed by the left because their goal is banning all guns. They won’t allow themselves to be confused by the rational facts. To Liberals, the truth is whatever they want it to be.
Armed teachers or others in the schools would be a huge deterrent and they can’t have that.
