Pretty much 50/50 at this point. Divided just like America.

I bet if you could see where the votes came from it would look just like the elections.

Should schools and hospitals have mandatory fire extinguishers?

Given A. a student is a student is a student [Identity]

Given B. a campus is a campus is a campus [Identity]

Given C. Colleges have campus police.

Logical Conclusion: Ergo school campuses should have police.

oh I forgot that teachers do not learn LOGIC nor COMMON SENSE in universities and teachers` colleges-duhhhhh

““I don’t think it’s really a good idea to introduce guns into the classrooms or into schools,” Florida Education Association spokesman Mark Pudlow said to the Associated Press.”

This is dumb because the crazy people have already introduced the guns. That’s why this is necessary.

This is not a “novel” idea. Israel requires it’s teachers to be armed, and even the terrorists do not attack schools with guns.

ABSOLUTELY NOT! Fire fighting should be left to the professionals. Only professional fire-fighters have the necessary training. If fire extinguishers are accessible to the public, untrained amateurs might take it upon themselves to attempt to use them on a fire.

Look at the statistics. Almost all public buildings, where fires have burned, had fire extinguishers installed. Coincidence? I think not.

Have to think about the idea. Most teachers and administrators are flaming liberals.

No. Just close the public schools permanently. They’re dangerous, they’re expensive, and they’re graduating a bunch of dummies.

More government employees? No, probably not. Private armed security guards.

Hell, I’d make armed security a selling point for private schools.
