I think a bill to allow teachers who volunteer to go through defensive handgun training would be great to allow qualified staff to be armed

Posted this opinion on another thread, but I disagree with the voluntary idea. It should be mandatory along with proper firearms training. Make it a job requirement.

I would not force a teacher to carry a gun, a lot of our teachers are themselves mentally unbalanced.

Also to keep guns in the class room will require tight security considerations because a lot of parents particularly northern parents will not teach their children about gun safety.

A safer place would be the Principal’s office, or up high in a locked box. This will doubt slow response time, but it will save a lot of innocent lives in the mean time.
