Letting properly trained teachers opt to carry a concealed weapon would at least give them a fighting chance.
And what’s the alternative when preventive measures fail? One Florida teacher talked about putting her students in a closet and guarding it with a pair of scissors.
Really? If a shooter came in, who in their right mind would rather have a pair of scissors than a gun?
Similarly, the Department of Homeland Security advises that if you can’t hide from or flee an active shooter, you should try "throwing items and improvising weapons." Who in that scenario would rather improvise weapons than have one already ready to fire? |

Willie Sutton was asked why he robbed banks. He famously replied, "Because that's where the money is."
Prisons are 'disproportionately' inhabited by blacks. Could it possibly be because they disproportionately commit more crimes?
You do the math. |

TO REMEMBER |
| Gentlemen may cry, 'peace, peace'—but there is no peace. The war is actually begun! Is life so precious, or peace so dear, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty, or give me death! — Patrick Henry to the Virginia Convention on March 23, 1775. |
