Never had any in our county, either. Do you think this is a bad idea?
I think calling for armed guards in all schools is an overreaction out of panic that will bite us in the end. After all, there are some 100,000 plus schools in America and these mass shootings amount to a tiny fraction of a percent.
I checked today and found that there are 13 different school districts in my county with multiple buildings, 6 Catholic schools, 3 Christian non Catholic schools, 3 charter schools, and 3 private schools. Not 1 has ever had a shooting of any kind.
Better to go state by state to change laws and allow school staff to be armed if they so choose. My thinking is that I would rather keep a potential threat guessing than putting one person out there that they can spot.
Another concern is the volunteers. It won’t take long for the left to figure out that a ringer firing a couple of shots into a school ceiling will be great PR for them. The ringer will get a slap on the wrist and the media will do weeks of show blaming the NRA for unleashing these crazies in our schools.
If you leave it up to the individual staff of schools you will end up with some schools unprotected but no one will know which are and aren’t.
