Great idea Utah. How about you just give all the students some sort of weapon. As if taking something from a teacher wasn't easy already, now it'll be a gun "stuffed away in their desks."
Anyone who thinks that students will be able to easily access or steal the teachers' firearms are just downright silly.
Some rural schools already allow teachers to have firearms during school and I've yet to hear about a school shooting occurring in one of those schools.
I've yet to hear bout. Shooting in all but a mall handful of schools. Your point is?Should a school choose to arm teachers that's fine by me, since they will do everything within their power to ensure safety of the teachers and more importantly the students.
My point is that, for anyone saying teachers having guns=students taking those guns for nefarious purposes is silly. Yes, I know school shootings are incredibly rare and the kneejerk reaction of the schools in Utah to arm themselves in the wake of Newtown is stupid, emotional and reactionary but if they want to do it, they are going to do it.
And anyone that thinks that if they do arm teachers, shootings in those schools will increase in chance because of the closer proximity to firearms, are being silly since some schools have already had armed teachers and we do not hear about them or shootings occurring there.
