I wonder how the guns are secured. Are they on the teacher's body, or locked away, and what's to prevent a kids forcibly taking it if given the opportunity in a moment of crisis?
Are they ready to shoot an unarmed kid that tries to take the gun, or looks like they might?

I'm not a fan of arming teachers. They are taught to teach in their respective fields. I'm not a fan of arming anyone who does not under go extensive, repetitive annual instruction. Improve school perimeters and place properly trained security in the schools.

Unfortunately the “crazies” aren’t really that crazy. They look for soft targets. Wasn’t some mayhem stopped recently in a church that encouraged its parishioners to carry?
Hardening soft targets will reduce the insanity. Harden them by whatever means possible and necessary.

Of course, the problem is that there is an infinite number of soft targets.

If the general population begins hardening the soft targets on a much larger scale the crazies will not know what ones are hardened or which ones remain soft targets. That on itself would be a deterrent

The videos I have seen, and yes is MSM, but they showed teachers open carrying in the class. I worry about that, especially in places that are cities. Finally and flame away if you must, but if more folks carried, the bad guys would kinda have to think twice about where they do their deeds?

IMHO, more guns is not the the answer in a time of record gun ownership, distribution, and availability.
Also, how are responders supposed to tell the good guys with a gun in their hands from the bad guys with a gun in their hands?

Still waiting on an answer of what 's to stop a kid, or group of kids from trying to take the gun, and if the teacher is supposed to open fire on them?

I believe the way it works in my kids school is nobody knows what teacher or staff member is armed. The law was passed in Florida after the Parkland shooting. Cop on the scene ran away from the shooting.

And what is to stop a group of kids from overpowering a police officer and taking his weapons?
You relish in the hypothetical virtual impossibilities. Of course there is a possibility of this happening but what is the probability. Practically nil. It’s always a “lone wolf” doing the mayhem. Not a “group of children “. Quit being ridiculous.

The probability of a child trying to get their hands on a teachers gun is actually very high. I'm asking what's the policy if a kid tries to get the gun?
Is the teacher supposed to shoot them? It's not an improbable hypothetical, and I would think there is a policy.
It's not a trick question.
