So it sounds as though the NRA is advocating a gunfight at the OK Corral solution to gun violence. They believe teachers and administrators should be armed. Now think about it - a madman with assault weapons enters a classroom. By the time the teacher recognizes a threat and pulls a weapon out of their desk, or wherever, the madman has already mowed down a half dozen children, including, perhaps the armed teacher. If the teacher avoids being killed in the initial volley, he/she and the madman engage in an old fashioned gunfight in a crowded classroom. Yep, that will solve all our problems! The LEADERSHIP of the NRA is out of touch with the members of their own organization, and in another world from the rest of America. Good grief!

Not totally agreeing with the NRA nor with you!
The point (which, of course, no one can guarantee) is that if a teacher had a gun
and was trained in its use - perhaps - PERHAPS the gunmen could have been stopped. If the madman had killed a half dozen maybe the others would have been spared.
Obviously no one knows.
There are NO easy answers!
