The Brevard County School Board on Tuesday decided to postpone implementing Sheriff Wayne Ivey's controversial proposal to arm school staff and instead opted to hire full-time armed "security specialists." School board members and district officials are calling the new plan a "compromise," but many of the Brevard residents who attended Tuesday night's meeting in Viera argued the plan still puts more guns in schools in the hands of insufficiently trained people. The security specialists will go through the same 176 hours Ivey proposed for school employees and carry guns during school hours. |

TO REMEMBER |
| Besides the advantage of being armed, which the Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation, the existence of subordinate governments, to which the people are attached, and by which the militia officers are appointed, forms a barrier against the enterprises of ambition, more insurmountable than any which a simple government of any form can admit of. Notwithstanding the military establishments in the several kingdoms of Europe, which are carried as far as the public resources will bear, the governments are afraid to trust the people with arms. — James Madison, The Federalist Papers, No. 46 |
