The only remaining question is whether any school board will have the guts or brains required to arm volunteer teachers. In 2013, Policeone.com did a survey of 15,000 police officers. Eighty percent of the officers agreed with arming and training volunteer teachers and administrators. Ninety percent agreed that casualties would be decreased if armed citizens were present at the outset of an active shooter incident. But what do police officers know about guns, violence and self-defense? |

TO REMEMBER |
| For, in principle, there is no difference between a law prohibiting the wearing of concealed arms, and a law forbidding the wearing such as are exposed; and if the former be unconstitutional, the latter must be so likewise. But it should not be forgotten, that it is not only a part of the right that is secured by the constitution; it is the right entire and complete, as it existed at the adoption of the constitution; and if any portion of that right be impaired, immaterial how small the part may be, and immaterial the order of time at which it be done, it is equally forbidden by the constitution. [Bliss vs. Commonwealth, 12 Ky. (2 Litt.) 90, at 92, and 93, 13 Am. Dec. 251 (1822) |
