yep super complicated
sometimes kids should hit teachers
and always teachers should be able to have a gun handy just in case the first sometimes happens
I’m not saying I disagree - but at the same time - we need to be very careful which teachers we arm.
Let’s be honest - a lot of people become teachers - many quit for a variety of reasons - pay, job not being what they thought and poor administration.
At the same time - just like some people join the police force to bully people around - some become teachers become teachers for the wrong reasons. You really want one of these 40 year of losers roaming a hallway with a weapon trying to act tough to a bunch of teenagers ?
I’m fine with arming employees - but just needs to be some common sense screening done here too. Hell - in my day a student showing up with a gun in their vehicle meant they either had been deer hunting the morning before class or planned on going out rabbit hunting after school. No one thought having a weapon was a cause for concern. Obviously that changed quickly after Columbine just like our attitude changed on planes quickly post 9/11.
