Great idea, but we need to go one better and push for national reciprocity so that folks that are trained and move can jump right in to protect kids if they are relocated - not to mention all the other CCW holders who could help protect kids when travelling.
How do they get the coyote to provide urine samples?
Oops. Posted to the wrong thread!
Excellent.
Now if they will only allow them to carry in schools.
Thanks for clarifying! I read your original comment, and said to myself: “WTF?”
A school teacher in Pennsylvania made her statement against teachers carrying weapons. She said that she was a former Marine, and she was an “expert.” ;-D
I earned the expert badge in the Guard but did not call myself an expert. That would be embarrassing. I also qualified high on police ranges. As a group, hillbillies who hunt are more accurate than people in uniform.
Don’t know who suggested it, but the idea that schools and police precincts co-locate is a good idea. Land, buildings and parking already municipal owned. Seems like a good idea to me.

That wouldn’t work in areas with multiple schools.

Sorry, but I don't think that is a good idea. I don;t want some cowboy from out of town charging into my school with a weapon. He'll likely endanger himself along with others and get shot for his efforts.
I strongly support screened and trained teachers and staff within the school to be armed and ready to defend their students and staff. School district employees/administrators who are licensed to carry and uniformed officers are the only people who need to be in a school with a weapon.
Why couldn’t it? Small detachments at each school. An office with a squad car parked at the front door.
A woman friend of mine teaches at Colorado Mesa Univ. She has been carrying for years unbeknownst to college officials.
This is exactly the way this problem should be addressed. Train willing teachers, and make lunatics think twice before coming to a school to shoot people.
Trump has even suggested paying Teachers who get certified to handle a firearm, bonuses, which I think is a great idea.
Of course the dems in the legislature turned back a bill to allow CCW in government union schools.
—one small step for student safety—hope it goes nationwide—
I'll bet the seventeen sets of parents in Florida would give up everything they own in trade for some "cowboy" saving the lives of their kids.
It was at a shopping mall in Oregon, not a school, where a killer saw a concealed carrier taking aim at him so he retreated from his position and took his own life. Just aiming a gun at the coward cut short his crime.
My son-in-law is a former Marine Captain. My daughter married him when he was a 1st Lt. He laughs about how his 2 buddies were amazed when his skinny little wife could out shoot all three Marine officers the first time they all went shooting.
I had her shooting since she was 5. She mostly just shoots when they hunt ducks and quail now but my son-in-law says she is still a better shot than he is with a shotgun..
National reciprocity is not a good idea?
