If the shite hit the fan, would you rather have a stapler to defend yourself or someone, anyone, with a gun?

And I wouldn't go hunting with any of by buddies who joined the army instead of going to college. But dam if we don't have a dam good army when we need it.

Maybe if teachers passed a marksmanship course of some sort, maybe a police maintained and supervised course I could support this but I’m also a little skeptical of just throwing guns to teachers. I think maybe a guard force of retired cops or retired military that’s passed extensive background checks would be a better option.

I don't think anyone is advocating the Principal assigning a Glock to each teacher with their classroom assignments. That is silly.

There are 130K schools in the US. How many retired cops and military would you need? Would you pay them? One football or baseball coach who hunts and understands guns, with access to one AR15 type weapon, is really all you need to deter 95% of the nonsense. The nutters who do crap like shoot up schools know they have a good 10-15 minute window where they can literally shoot fish in a barrel. Fact is good guys with guns deter gun violence. Always has been, always will be
