Does this mean there will be a deputy with an AR15 posted during school hours? Or does it mean that if a deputy goes to the school at some random time he will have an AR15?
Great thinking! We can just arm our soldiers with concealed pistols!
Why expose yourself?
Well, first, that's their job. And second, because they're exposed anyway.
Rifles are offensive weapons. Pistols are defensive weapons.
Only someone who knows absolutely nothing about firearms suggests taking on a rifle with a pistol. That's the equivalent of "shoot the gun out of their hand" fantasies.
Master at arms controlled the fire arms for top side watch, below decks watch, and held the keys to the arsenal
It’s a step to help solve certain issues. The main issue is untouched. The gun and 2A is the patsy.
Soooo Sheriff Scott “Johnny Dangerously” Israel wants 88 Magnums so he can shoot through schools .... fire that dipsh*t yesterday ....
Frangible ammo and a sidearm is all that needed .

First rule of survival, DONT become a Target.
While Open carry has its place, I am not a fan.
The kids need to look this up on their smartphones since they’re so clever.
Benjamin Franklin — ‘Those who would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.
I think they should also have gun towers and barbed wire around the perimeter. Post signs that say “ you cannot leave until you get straight A’s”. Just a thought.
Dude. I know YOU'RE born again badass, but are you crazy?
Yer 20 foot away! Frangible ammo works and delivers FULL kinetic energy
The all-knowing kids want less guns but they’re getting more guns. HAHA.
Is this an Offensive or Defensive position?
I have hunch that she is at the root of these grassroots ‘children’, along with SoreAss.
If survival is your first concern, stay home.
They're there to protect the children, and they should be carrying the most effective tools to do so.
Pistols are great for seven yard engagements, but seventy yards is for rifles.
David Hoggs position is ridiculous.
Do you not think the uniform would give them away.
Funny you ask? When I joined, I grew up in a family inner city, we never had guns. The 1st guns I ever shot were at the range in the military. In those days if you were smart on the ASVAB they sent you to sub school and all the related fields.
I guess they figured when we showed up at the range since we were firing missiles and torpedoes it didn’t matter if we could shoot the broad side of a barn. What counted was safety.
I thought you were all for "survival?"
If you're suggesting getting within twenty feet of an active shooter before putting them down, I think you're missing the point of armed security.
Wait, I thought that..oh never mind..
Carrying those ARs will make them very visible and obvious first targets. You take out the guard first then the whole place is easy shooting.
