So You Want to "Arm" Teachers?

There's a "presumption" that the whole military would lockstep along with the instructions given by the CIC, but the discussion about it being useless to resist as a means of marginalizing or interpreting the 2nd Amendment is ridiculous at best. The best argument against disarmament is the one being offered today based on the FACTS coming out about the failure of the GovernmentS (several levels) to protect citizens and their children in a public (government) building funded by the taxpaying citizens.

It appears that many of the same people calling for disarmament are the same ones who failed to provide the protection of Government to the citizens they wish to disarm. Whether it's "unwillingness" or just plain incompetence it doesn't matter. The result is the same.

In fact attempting to blame it on the weapons (or style of weapon) is merely a diversion from the reality of their failure to PROTECT. Originally Posted by LexusLover

That person gets checked at security check point and has to enter THE DOOR! Originally Posted by LexusLover




I normally do not agree with LL but on this one I do. You on the other hand are simply twisting his words to say whatever you want. He did not say set it up at one entrance and allow others to be unguarded there are schools all over that have been built or modified to do exactly what he is proposing. But you would rather just go with the "guns-O-plenty" method first. Originally Posted by MT Pockets

Keep struggling for relevance. This is the 21st Century. You don't have to do this any more.



And the great thing about cameras and monitor systems hooked up to computers is they can be remotely accessed and transmitted to LE off premises if appropriate, as well as documenting the intrusion for prosecution.

That's why businesses and people have monitored security systems to stop people at the perimeter.

But, I know, you'd rather play OK Corral with children's lives to prove your "prowess" with your gun.

And "yes" ... I posted "THE DOOR" ... in fact this afternoon I'm passing through "THE DOOR" to the security check manned by law enforcement officers with weapons for verification and "inspection" in a government building. Didn't you have to do that in the military, also?

Florida Legislature disagrees with you about "arming teachers"! Let's see if the Governor signs.
Well not to be a Buzz Kill for those that are against Arming Teachers but in Callisburg Texas teachers have been armed for several years. I never thought I would see such an article but there's the link below.

The board members told him they'd all get defeated in the next election if they did that.

A difference is. Many of these communities have a long history of gun possession and use in their family and so do the teachers who carry them. I also suspect the students demonstrate greater respect for the teachers than most urban schools. The teachers probably know how to keep their weapon safe and don't need "bio-tech" shit to protect it from being used by the wrong person. But if the district requires a "trigger lock" then it's useless in an emergency.

But you apparently have the belief that #1 the "military" would side with the Liberals, #2 that ALL the military would actively participate in slaughtering their neighbors, and #3 that those opposing the establishment would not receive outside help.

There are some fairly intense and resourceful folks off the grid.

However, FYI, there are several good books out that describe how WWII POWs, 18 to 25 year-olds, who, under the watchful eyes of armed guards, weren't supposed to be able to sneak around and cut through the perimeter wire with tools they weren't supposed to have ... but did.

He spoke to a school board after columbine to advisee them they need to ban them?

They said they would lose the election if they did?

I'm having trouble with your dates.
