I completely agree with this poster. Guns in the class room is a horrid idea. I taught for 13 years and many chances for a child to get to a gun arose in the classroom. Kids, particularly boys, will be drawn toward "just Holding" the gun. Even if it is put in the back waistband of the teacher they would have to stop going up and down the isles to keep a child from reaching for it. This is just too dangerous a situation for the classroom no matter how much training a teacher gets. The entrances need to be monitored more so the shooters can't get in. The kids will NOT be trained.
