I am trying to picture my teachers with guns
- Thread starter bullmarket
- Start date
I recall there for a little while, maybe 10 yrs ago or so, a lot of the schools I visited had a police officer on duty. Not sure what happened to that, but there were several around my area that had them. Bull, I believe its conceal carry
Yeah, that's what our kid's need, get after your fat cat district sups if you have a clue. Do you?
I think most public schools have had some form of enforcement on site for years but the reasoning was related to internal issues such as student/student or student/teacher altercatons.There was a time when an external threat was simply umimaginable.
would you rather see this or 6' of dirt.
I did a scientific poll at the dog park this am. Two teachers, one male, one female. The female paused to let another female chime in with her thoughts and then they chose No. The male said he was a hunter and was a Yea. There you have it: 50/50
Three armed policemen stood outside of the school apparently afraid of a shooter with an assault rifle who with one pull of his trigger he could have killed all three in 2 seconds.
Do I condone what three policemen did?....ABSOLUTELY NOT!
They did not do their jobs to protect the public.
It reinforced what I thought about teachers having guns, It shows me that teachers should not have guns.
If teachers were to have hand guns I’d think they would use them to protect themselves and their class or area, but I wouldn’t depend upon them to seek out the shooter(s) and go up against an AR. Some teachers would but don’t think most. That’s expecting way too much. Now if they were allowed to carry an AR15 to school then that’s different story.
Cops should have ARs in their patrol car in case they come up against a guy like the four FL cops did last week.

How in gods name does the inaction of officers reinforce what teachers should or shouldn't do?? God almighty.......
I mean if officers aren't going to respond to help out, may as well leave teachers and students defenseless too right?? Geez....
Maybe if we put it in terms we can all understand, we can lose to the steers twice in ten years or the pokes once in ten years. NO other choices...
Stop Cherry picking what I said.
No teacher would win with a hand gun vs,. an assault rifle.
She would be dead in 1 second with 5 bullets in her.
Show me where it is their job. Police officers enforce laws. That is their job. Your idea of "to serve and protect" comes from bad tv and the LAPD...

Their chief of police of Broward County criticized an officer who did not go in to confront the killer.
And I am not doubting what you say. PtLavacaSooner.
Back in the day those Ladies did not need guns, they put the fear of God in you! God has been taken out of schools and the devil has made it his playground. My gf is a nurse at a Catholic hospital and they pretty much no longer have a bunch of Nuns working there anymore. She said she can tell the difference as the young nurses get away with a lot more crap than they used to 25 yrs ago and are basically lazy and think they know everything and unwilling to learn. It is pretty much like this everywhere these days, nobody gives a shit anymore about anyone or anything. No pride in self or doing your job the right way. I could go on and on but I won't.
How many school shootings did you hear about when Teachers could still actually whip a kids ass?
You actually believe this? God almighty you really have no clue what you are talking about......
Until gunshots are heard in the hallway. Then they all wish they had a gun.
I am so pissed at idiots who know squat about guns. A pistol and an ar both fire a round with each trigger pull. A pistol may have the advantage as an ar is not as easy to handle and aim due its weight and length. Bull, quit embarassing yourself.
This is patently false and fully exposes your dishonesty, or intellectual laziness, or both.
As people age, some regress into childhood. You appear to be at the 12 year-old girl stage.
You're nothing but a disingenuous troll.
Good call V. Not sure how I missed that little nugget in his post. I think it's pretty evident that Bull has no clue about guns and firearms and simply eats the drool fed to him out of CNN or any other anti-gun troll that gets in front of the camera. I really feel bad for people who just take what the media feeds them as truth and makes zero effort to actually educate themselves.
Teachers being able to defend themselves when law enforcement either refuses to step in, or can't respond in time is just awful. Good lord it's just a stupid idea to allow teachers the ability to defend themselves. The horror!!!!!
I really don't know anything at all, but I really think that one individual, reasonably well trained in the use of a handgun, could provide at least a little defense against a better-armed intruder. Why not have at least a couple of folks like that in our schools? Every teacher doesn't have to be armed, but why not a few? It would be like the air marshal program - nobody knows who has the gun, so you better be careful...
Hell, my kids are all grown now, but I think I would be thinking seriously about home-schooling them if this was 20 years ago.

Haven't most mass shootings been carried out with handguns and not assault rifles?
Mass shootings happen in gun-free zones. That's all anyone needs to know to understand the value of the threat of deterrence.
