Really? One school in Pennsylvania gives teachers rocks, and then another one gives teachers bats. Sticks and stones may break my bones, but guns.....

Thank God my grandchildren are students in Texas where teachers are carrying every day. It has worked in Israel for decades, so this should be a no brainer.

That’ll be familiar.

First person old shooter games like “Doom” where the creatures use their claws and bats and you have a shooting weapon. Will there be points on the teachers?

Sorry for being so horrid and crass but I’m trying to view situational presentation through the eyes of a maniac mass murderer without a soul.

Actually, for non-combatant, lay people, especially those who are nervous around guns, the bucket of rocks is not a bad idea. The miniature bats are laughable.

But I saw a meme on Today's Toons this morning that asked, what if the bad guy had paper?

Doesn't paper beat rocks in the "rock, scissors, paper" game? What then?

Just askin'..... :-)

I hear that the Zulu's has a surplus of spears the teachers could throw at some active shooter. What teacher in today's world would have the gall to step close enough to some shooter hell bent on shooting up the place to actually use that bat/ By the way, that looks like a souvenir bat from a baseball game.

I hope they take away the guns from any security people at the school system headquarters and give them these cool toys.

"Follow the money". Somebody must have a warehouse full of those things and what is his relation to the person who bought them for the school system?

They look less than useless for defense against even an unarmed teenager, never mind a shooter.

How about throwing a fire extinguisher, or better still, a fire axe?
