Not necessary or even wanted. Teachers would need extensive training in order to deal with the adrenaline rush and stress. If all schools were treated like Government buildings it would be hard for these sorts of tragedies to happen. You can't easily get into any Government building without being scrutinized.

Good point. Also, about 60% of deaths by firearms are suicides.

Why does someone need three guns? I shoot in competitions that require different firearms so that is why I need multiple guns. At one time I owned 5 automobiles at the same time when 2 cars would have been all I "needed" but I had a use for each of them. It's no one's business what I own and what I need. If the ownership is legal, what is the problem other than your desire to force your beliefs on me.

Bad idea since it was first conceived. Who do you think the shooter is going to shoot first? I agree, 1. Harden schools with a single point of entry secured with biometric ID checking. Cards will get lost or stolen. 2. Implement national universal background checks, which would include unsealing minor records - this shooter was 18, he did not commit any crimes, and or get convicted in the two days since his birthday. 3. Implement a national wide system of training and apprenticeships for active shooter training. NO Officer without actual experience is allowed on a case. "Fireteams" of 3 to 5 stationed within 3 to 5 minutes of schools via helicopter transport. They have NO other jobs while on duty, duty can be rotated so they are not too "bored" between shootings. 4. Automated gunshot detection systems in and around schools to detect the number, type, and location of gunshots in school and send that info to the designated team who will arrive within 5 minutes with knowledge of how many shooters, what kind of guns, and where they are located. (AI-based detection can give a "good guess" to the type of weapon, multiple microphones around and in the school can triangulate on the location, and possibly provide live voice/sound streams to the fire team so they can hear what is going on. This would be expensive. But I am sure there are smarter people that me that can figure out how to "timeshare" the teams or something to reduce the cost. That will not STOP the problem, but it will seriously reduce it. |

Have you ever read reports of trained police officers accidentally shooting innocent bystanders in a firefight? (I have) There are training videos on youtube that show how actual highly trained officers can make serious mistakes in high adrenaline situations. Then imagine if the teacher is nervous - shaking and misses the active shooter but kills multiple children that are in the room... Too much risk of things going sideways. There is no way a teacher can be just trained and be an asset in that situation the first time they face it. The police in this shooting apparently had active shooter training, but NO experience. And it appears there was a lot of confusion and possibly even mistakes. That is NOT an attack on the police. I am sure they did the best they could. But, the first time in a fire fight is not a good place to be. |

It would be better to just secure the buildings, really secure the buildings, then arming teachers won't be necessary.

This thread has turned into just another gun control debate. We already have a very lengthy one of those.
