Hell, I'm for whatever allows our educators to feel more comfortable and to care for those under their charge


I'm not sure how it falls in the Red Herring category. As I said, I wish we could ask those brave educators would they have liked to have had something other than their bodies to protect the children that they so heroically did.

I don't want you to think that was an attack.

I'm just looking at it as a soldier would feel safer with a gun in a war zone than a teacher would in his desk while teaching history.  Meaning that knowing they have a gun and may have to use it but never know when is different for a soldier and a teacher.

Certainly SOME might want to be armed.  I just haven't met one I know yet.

And, I agree, that we have to do more than just arm a few teachers.  There has to be a broad change in multiple areas of society.
