I take the Jim Jefferies stance on this. If there's a guy with a semi-automatic rifle and body armour blasting bodies left and right are you really going to try and be a hero with your little glock 26? I don't think so.

Not to mention the mid life crisis substitute teacher scenario he pointed out...

But gun owners are stupid and constantly lose their weapons while conceal carrying.

just because marijuana is legal in the state doesn't mean everyone who lives there is constantly under the influence. alcohol is legal in every state and you don't see the population in those states constantly drunk, do you?

what a literal_garbage post that was.

I would not mind a toked out stoner with a gun at all beyond the usual issues of forgetfulness. The alcoholic recent divorcee with a point to prove, that's the one to worry about.

This is the dumbest thing I've seen today.

They already tell you not to shoot children, so why would telling someone they can't bring a gun to school stop them from shooting children.

Also in regards to the idea that body armor makes men immune to gunshots.

I was being facetious with the second example, so don't worry about that one.

My point in the first example is I honestly don't believe arming teachers is going to be an effective means of stopping mass shooters. Like what teacher is going to be the fucking hero in that scenario?

Fifty untrained civilians all armed in a tight space and under extreme stress, what could go wrong? Are you expecting this to be like an organised swat team in every school? I don't think it's going to work so well.

Barricade yourself in a classroom. If the shooter gets through the door you now have a legit chance at defending your students. I like it.

Well the thing is the odds are a lot better if a trained teacher was carrying a piece, and the super market shooting and congressional baseball shooting both showed the assailants were terrible shots. That Randy dude or chick couldn't hit a bottle at 10 feet with buckshot and that Bernie supporter fired 50 shots and barely hit anyone. Hell, a good number of the injuries were from people running away.

You know what? I say let's try it, fuck it. And if there's a shooting there and teachers save the day, then sure - I'd be open to changing my opinion on this.

I still don't think it's the smart solution but apparently it's happening anyway so whatever.

As a teacher I will that this is so ridiculous and unnecessary.

We had to do all this active shooter training and the guy just kept saying "when the shooter comes in, he is just trying to kill as many people as possible" Like what is that based on? The 2 school shootings that have met that MO? Nothing but fear mongering.

One thing you're neglecting is that the knowledge the teachers can shoot back can act as a deterrent in itself. The only thing most mass shooters really have in common is they pick a location where their potential targets won't be able to effectively fight back.

Most shooters don't have body armor. In fact I've never heard of that. So yes a small Glock 26 can definitely take him down or at the least slow him down.
