Sorry but I would NOT have wanted to be trained and armed as you suggest. I attended an excellent university in order to develop an expertise in my field of education so that I could best serve my students. I did not choose the teaching profession with any intention of learning how to use a gun to kill intruders. We all have our roles in society and I do not believe that is or should be the domain of educators.
