Indeed you are precisely on target with your comment. I would further add that the leftist nature of the teaching profession is a large part of the problem leading up to the school terrorism. Don’t get me wrong about a sweeping generalization of teachers, I tried teaching a few years. The leftists drove me back to the world of rational folks. A teacher IMO should value those children enough to want to educate themself on firearm safety and protect those kids just like the parents would. I know I’m opening a huge can of worms, teachers will say they are overworked, underpaid, afraid of guns, blah blah... Either kids are worth protecting or they’re not. They socialist education system needs to figure it out or be replaced. Yes, big talk. But our president made a lot of big talk in his campaign speeches that people thought could not be done and he is slowly accomplishing these things.
I’m sorry for my rant, it’s not directed at you. I just listened to this story thru 4 hours in my car today, I’m a grandmother with grandbabies in public schools and just wired up. My teaching/mothering experience tells me I need to call more Congress critters, write more letters and make a difference.
It’s not about arming all teachers ...
It’s about allowing the teachers that want to be armed to do so ...
