Guns are used to protect valuables. Guards have guns in the banks to protect money. Armed security are all over the airports. Jewelry stores have armed guards. Malls have armed guards. I could go on. So can you agree that our children are valuable? Or do you not feel like they should be protected as aggressively as the aforementioned areas that guns are used to protect inanimate objects we consider as valuables? We protect bars of gold more than we protect our children.
Would you prefer our kids have to walk into a school that looks like a morgue? The White House has armed guards. Does it look like a concentration camp to you?
I live and go to high school in Utah, where every teacher in every public school is allowed to concealed carry a firearm, assuming they have a CCW. And I feel much safer because of it.
This needs to be brought to the top of 2018 . A small town taking care of its own needs and not crying to congress...This is how Americans take care of things..
A gun is a tool that teachers can have on them in case something happens. Nobody needs to know about it and obviously there are laws against brandishing and misusing guns that we all know about.
Anyone that seriously wants guns to be completely banned has no idea how much guns are in America that would have to be taken away from people, and has no ability to think logically whatsoever.
Now who said to COMPLETELY BAN guns? I have heard NOTHING about that. Assault weapons I have heard and agree with. You don't need an assault weapon. If you need that for hunting you are one piss poor hunter. Hand guns....have not heard anyone wanting them taken away. America is a horrible place for the citizens that just want to live their lives. You now have to walk into a store and not know who has a gun....what nut case is going to pull out a gun if you look at them the wrong way. This is NOT the wild west. We have advance since then. What is wrong with background checks? At gun show also? What is wrong with not letting someone who is mentally incapable of handling a gun not get one? More guns is NOT the answer.
The second amendment is not and never has been about hunting or target shooting. Anyone who seriously believes that our founding fathers wrote the second amendment to protect our right to hunt or shoot targets is an idiot. Background checks are already in place even at gun shows, stop getting your disinformation from the left wing media. If you are not happy here maybe you can move to a country with very strict gun laws where almost nobody is allowed to own a firearm like Mexico.
+Zero Zero (ZeroZero) More than 15 million licensed concealed carriers and uncounted open carriers in 45 states - see how many instances of that scenario you can find, for me. Excluding cops shooting unarmed children, that is.

Most people who think like you run away to safety when it's time to do your duty , after all , you might get killed , and that possibility is not in YOUR best interest . This job requires people who are dedicated to the safety and protection of others , even if they have to risk their own safety in the line of duty , and they would do so without being payed to do so . These are the true heroes . Thank you for your honesty , you are dismissed . NEXT !
fuck that. you don't know how many fights that go on between teachers and kids. you're not seeing the big picture. lol, "good" people and "bad" people. how about enraged teachers and kids? who is in the right in those situations? fucking gun nuts want to destroy any peace we have.
Fun fact: The government of Switzerland gives each and every one of their citizens a fire arm. Another Fun fact: Switzerland has arguably the lowest rate of gun violence
I think the intended purpose would be achieved simply by allowing carry-licensed adults on the permanent staff to carry on school grounds if they so chose. Probably there should be a specially designed course of instruction required, as the President suggested. Other issues, such as early detection of kids who are losing it, can be treated separately. One nice feature of this plan is that the additional expense is low (just the special course and some administration). Another nice feature is that it remedies the current violation of the teachers' right of self-defense.
Not so simplistically, but yes, guns in the right hands are a deterrent to this kind of mass murderer. Obviously no single thing solves all aspects of the problem.
American Girl would you sign a waiver not to sue if your child accidentally get shot by a teacher who inaccurately perceives him/her as a imminent threat?
I worked in education 28 years and there is no mistake when someone is "perceived as a imminent threat." Duh, especially when they have a gun or knife. You would not believe how many staff I worked with who were injured, including broken arms, ankles and legs because they saw no other choice than to throw themselves between the aggressor (bully) to protect a victim/ innocent child. Teachers died shielding students with their bodies. Israel started arming their teachers after one school shooting and there has NOT BEEN A SCHOOTING SINCE. And not one student has been shot by a teacher.
@@jycfrnkl considering the country has an issue with officers. I highly doubt untrained teachers would do much better. All it would takes is a teachers over assumption
Ask yourself, when you have kids at school and there is a freak shooting the place up, would you rather have armed guards defending the school or police who are arriving after the scene where your kids was shot like sitting ducks.
I also think alot of this shit comes down to lawsuits. See if an outsider comes into a school and murders people, who the fuck are the victims gonna sue? The shooter right? And if they sue the school, the school can say "Hey we did everything we can and we made it a gun free zone..." But if a teachers gun goes off accidently and injures someone, or the teacher shoots people, then the school district and state are totally liable. So they would wrather have somebody kill everybody and not be liable, than allow teachers to conceal carry and get sued and lose their high district board positions when something happens with a teachers gun.
People kill people. Sad as that is. Survival instinct is different for everyone! Some are capable of handling high stress and active violence while others instantly flee.
Well, one question is, how many are concealing an AR15 in their pants? But even if you believe the only problem is crazies, or people who aren't responsible or mentally ill, then why don't lawmakers want restrictive laws to help limit them as much as possible? Sorry but there are many things that can be done without banning all guns. But the truth is, It's all about big money.
Ive seen videos of teachers losing it in the classroom and acting innapropriately. But ive also seen videos of teachers and students hiding in fear for their lives barricading themselves in a classroom and an active shooter trying to break in and kill these little defenseless sheep. And these people have no power and all they can do is hope that the shooter moves on and the cops show up. But the cops are slow and they take time. And everybody dies.
+Busy Teacher/Mom Shows a lot of maturity, which is seriously lacking in the YT comment section, to back off of a foolish statement so quickly, but you did. One of the reasons many are in favor of having teachers who volunteer and get licensed and trained to provide a layer of deterrent (mainly) and protection (secondarily) is that it is not economically feasible to have police (or armed guards even) at every school.

I have always believed that the ability to fight back makes the world a safer place. And this is true all the way from an individual carrying a gun to nations possessing nuclear weapons. Two people are much more likely to come to blows over small issues if neither of them possess guns. The threat of mutual destruction makes people disciplined. The only reason why cold war never turned into world war 3 is because both USA and USSR had nuclear weapons. But of course, at the same time, weapons must not fall in hands of crazy people who don't mind being killed themselves. And that's also true all the way from Elliot Rodger getting a gun to Al Qaida getting a nuclear bomb.
Same in Australia. The numbers clearly show that the more guns there are the more people get killed. Having a gun in your home makes it more likely that you will be killed by a gun.
Funny. In UK with draconian gun laws there are is much more crime than in my (european) country where concealed carry is allowed. We have no acid attacks, we have no knife fights on streets, and we have no gunfights.
No, numbers don't show it. One example: Czech republic. Anybody who fulfills the rules is entitled to concealed carry. Many do, several hundreds of thousands. Still, 6th or 7th safest country in the world. Actually, in 10 of the safest countries in the world (global peace index), mentioning countries which I know from personal experience of living there: Austria: 4th safest. Widespread gun ownership. Czech Republic: 6th safest. Widespread gun ownership. Widespread concealed carry. Switzerland: 9th safest. Widespread gun ownership. Now where is UK with its draconian gun laws? Place 41.

M. M. You’d be surprised, each and every one of those students and teachers is probably way smarter than you when it comes to firearms and how to use them safely and properly
I thought small high schools like these don't exist anymore... I thought they all turned into regional schools in 80's and 90's... Like it really looks like less than 200 kids go to school here
Student should not be allowed to carry guns in Children or Teenager zones. School premises must be fenced, and entrances have firearms, explosives sensors.
none of them will do what they practise in a real situation. even police who havent been in a live fire drill in two weeks run away from gunfire. but they dont need to bcuz shooters will avoid places where theyre likely to get shot.
Its a good idea that teachers have bear arms or guns because when a school shooter happends time is key and like a ticking time bomb what would you have 25 dead students and a broken door or one dead school shooter
I Love the idea and reasons behind this proposal. Audubon Jr. High had armed security in 1989 The only problem that I have with this is the same problem America has with the law enforcement hiring process. It's not a few bad apples getting in. Teachers like Police have had a very perverse recorded history already on the books for decades. I will post an example for those of you that just woke up today. I have hours of Male/Female teacher arrest footage. I'm sure many of them are not fans of Aaargo Jay I would like to add that Arizona, Arkansas, Kansas,Texas, Missouri,Tennessee, Kentucky, Virginia & Pensatucky rounded off the 'TOP 10' as the worst rampant Pedophile States since Ancient Greece!!
All possible outcomes will eventually occur. To the people who say, "what about when a teacher decides to shoot kids". Well, yeah. That eventually will happen. Denying that possibility would be absurd. There is no version of this world where we all live in perfect safety. But, we can choose the lesser of evils. And, I'm confident that teachers, who train and choose to be armed, will prevent far more harm than they will cause. Just like police. Police everywhere are armed, and some of them do bad things with the power they have, including shooting innocent people. But, on the whole, that's not how things go down. Personally, I would trust an armed teacher more than an armed police officer. The teacher didn't choose a career in using violence to control and lock people up, and in my own experience, they have a much more calm, peaceful disposition.
@@Cacowninja Yeah what happened in Uvalde is the poster child for not putting your personal safety in the hands of police officers. And the mall shooting in Indiana is the frame for that poster.
@@Cacowninja You know, like if you put a poster in a frame to hang it on the wall. Maybe it would have made more sense if I said it was the poster itself? That's what happens when I try to say something clever. 😂
This is a bunch of bull. Isn't it illegal to have weapons on school campus unless you are a licensed certified SRO or a peace officer of the county/city? Why is everyone just ignoring that fact?
I should add though that just like the Romans did prior to their collapse you do have the greatest stadiums and spectacles to keep the masses distracted. Congratulations.
And if they become unlucky, like any school that becomes "unluckly", and I think we mean targeted, will they fare better than an unarmed "gun free zone"? My guess is if they become targeted they fare better than a school where their only option is to hunker down and wait for someone to rescue them. If you were yourself in a situation with an active shooter, would you prefer to be armed or have someone there with you who is armed? If the shooter is coming into the room with you, or is bashing down whatever door is between you and them, what situation do you want to be in? Armed or unarmed?
we recognise problems through their symptoms. Pain in the left arm is a symptom of heart disease for example. A solution needs to fix the problem and not just it's symptoms. Treating the left arm doesn't mend the heart. Giving teachers guns; is that fixing the problem or fixing a symptom?
Everything Sucks ~ correlation doesn't equal causation. Believing gun free zones lead to active shooters represents specious reasoning. Rather that thinking about ways to stop an active shooter why not think about ways to not have shooters in the first place? The best way to stop a bad guy with a gun is make sure they can't get a gun. Prevention is better than the cure. Give up the right.
It's a difficult one. Was told a story once of a business trip to a remote area in the Soviet Union. The law was in the hands of the local towns people; no control over guns. Bodies littered the side of the streets. Life meant very little. Like the war zones, like the old wild west and like the ghettos. Terrorists win based on the response of those they terrorize. Active shooters are terrorists. How you respond to them determines whether or not they win. More guns in response to a terror attack, to a shooting, that's responding to the fear, that's giving in to the fear, that means the terrorist won. Good luck America.
If schools are close to border towns with drugs running around, and DRUG THUGS. SMART DECISION, I have been raised to respect guns... Guns in the right places & people,,,
Let's just get rid of automatic weapons. Keep your CC pistol. I don't mind. Let's work together to reduce military grade weapons while also preparing to defend ourselves with reasonable weaponry.
Randy sure thing. Being that automatic weapons were used in less than 5 crimes im the last 80 years or so I think it's safe to say they aren't a major issue.
A dishonest statement persists! I am a teacher not a law officer is all I want to hear after L E T H A L force, which is in no way another right to hold/stage or communte or grant clemency, or grant solemnity to an educator, of we'd have hoped the highest standard of the correct state of mind to not ask what question deserves a violent answer? In between that answer and a childs harms way, a court of law. This law, exception to rule, which grants special access, simply will not be tolerated. Not until full disclosure and civil joinder with an H O N E S T hardworking american people may have the manner elucidated further as to why an educator? Of all people has now the right? Not so. To teach? Maybe. Not to hold stage grant clemency or commute even an officer sworn a solemn oath to serve and protect. Unless upheld by the highest standard in a majority rule bifurcated bicameral bipartisan democrat or republican honest way of learning, hmm equality? No?
How about the role of the state representative in another jurisdiction? Because these are far past grounds for charges to be pressed, i dont know, maybe by the great state of Maryland, in which a law making body still may understand reckless endangerment and that of harms wsy? No? How about a learning model and the right of people to reach a joinder? No? How about criminal hmmm? Idk i think you like your taxpayer funded pay stub?
A school in a county 150 miles northwest of Ft. Worth with only 13,000 people (in the entire county) are scared that a loony will charge in from Highway 287 to shoot up a school. Now compare that to Marjory Stoneman Douglas in the Miami metro of Parkland, FL where over 31,500 live just in the city alone (Nearly 2-million in the county). Now with Sandy Hook in the New York City metro of Newtown, CT where over 28,000 people again just live in that city alone (Over 950,000 in the county). I think the reason Harrold ISD hasn't had a mass shooting is for the same reason Cody High School in Wyoming hasn't, barely anyone's there and barely even a reason to go there
Just because they are armed does not mean that they have stopped a shooting. There's not been a case where a teacher had to draw a weapon. What happens when the teacher never gets a clear shot? Are they going to fire with students in halls and add to the problem? What happens when the police do show up and you have multiple people with guns in the school?
Just arm the displinary teachers, deputy and the principal. Then start a program on Respect for diversity in schools. Teacher have to spot and tutor children who are different whether in academic performance or people interaction capacity. There must be minimal victimisation of students. Learning to be democratic in a free country isn't easy.
John Myers cultural development doesn't really need so much public funding. We have to understand the cultural ingredient needed to face even higher income levels with the autonomous vehicles and the AI store tools. Have Americans got what it takes to take advantage of this new AI technology enabled tools? More Entitlement mentality or Practical ready people. That's what all this CRISIS is all about. The Donald is doing the duck strategy.
Jake Schefers that’s not what I wrote. What I wrote was that a teacher can just as easily loose it and shoot a kid. 🙄. So really, what you wrote is the dumbest thing yet.
You're a coward. Pure and simple. This also means you would never do anything to save children if you had the power to do so in a situation like this. If the police take minutes to respond and be in a position to do something, then NO one else can either? Cowardly and foolish, and you should be ashamed of your situation.
I hope legislators were smart enough to include a clause that prohibits teachers from using their guns to enforce classroom discipline by threatening to shoot misbehaving students. That would basically turn teachers into prison wardens.
The AR-15 is not a gun it is much much more damaging than a gun. It is a killing rifle. Here is a Wikipedia definition the specifies the relationship between the M16 and the AR-15...The M16 rifle, officially designated Rifle, Caliber 5.56 mm, M16, is a United States military adaptation of the ArmaLite AR-15 rifle. The original M16 was a selective fire 5.56mm rifle with a 20-round magazine.

Rambo teachers! I love it.
none of them will do what they practise in a real situation. even police who havent been in a live fire drill in two weeks run away from gunfire. but they dont need to bcuz shooters will avoid places where theyre likely to get shot.
Is that a teacher using the English language.
who are they safe from?
Robert Leslie Jr. active shooters
I BET THEY ARE NOT CARRYING CONCEALED AR 15 s (their hand guns would be outmatched)
John sarab not really, big, metal and black does not make it dangerous, in fact I would take a browning .45 handgun over an ar-15 any day
Great idea whats the difference than the teacher having guns for spending to more of the tax payer money to place a cop at the school all day.
Its a good idea that teachers have bear arms or guns because when a school shooter happends time is key and like a ticking time bomb what would you have 25 dead students and a broken door or one dead school shooter
Takes cops 10 minutes to get there how many dead kids one teacher could stop them doing nothing kills kids
God in school would be best
Guns in sc
hools
I Love the idea and reasons behind this proposal. Audubon Jr. High had armed security in 1989 The only problem that I have with this is the same problem America has with the law enforcement hiring process. It's not a few bad apples getting in. Teachers like Police have had a very perverse recorded history already on the books for decades. I will post an example for those of you that just woke up today. I have hours of Male/Female teacher arrest footage. I'm sure many of them are not fans of Aaargo Jay
I would like to add that Arizona, Arkansas, Kansas,Texas, Missouri,Tennessee, Kentucky, Virginia & Pensatucky rounded off the 'TOP 10' as the worst rampant Pedophile States since Ancient Greece!!
Logical people.
There are over 170 now.
thanks, cowards!
America and the "bad guys" :D A joke... a bad one
statistically mass shootings in small towns usa are significantly low in comparison to more populated area
True.
This is America
It is great
All possible outcomes will eventually occur. To the people who say, "what about when a teacher decides to shoot kids". Well, yeah. That eventually will happen. Denying that possibility would be absurd. There is no version of this world where we all live in perfect safety. But, we can choose the lesser of evils. And, I'm confident that teachers, who train and choose to be armed, will prevent far more harm than they will cause. Just like police. Police everywhere are armed, and some of them do bad things with the power they have, including shooting innocent people. But, on the whole, that's not how things go down. Personally, I would trust an armed teacher more than an armed police officer. The teacher didn't choose a career in using violence to control and lock people up, and in my own experience, they have a much more calm, peaceful disposition.
You are smart to think that way especially after what happened in Uvalde, Texas.
@@Cacowninja Yeah what happened in Uvalde is the poster child for not putting your personal safety in the hands of police officers. And the mall shooting in Indiana is the frame for that poster.
@@keyofg2020 What do you mean by frame?
@@Cacowninja You know, like if you put a poster in a frame to hang it on the wall. Maybe it would have made more sense if I said it was the poster itself? That's what happens when I try to say something clever. 😂
@@keyofg2020 I mean what does your metaphor mean.
this was showed in 2014. But with Trump as president, CNN wishes it never aired this
Great idea and great school and teachers.
Hey look! Six hundred and sixty-six comments!
This is a bunch of bull. Isn't it illegal to have weapons on school campus unless you are a licensed certified SRO or a peace officer of the county/city? Why is everyone just ignoring that fact?
I love noodles some states allow cities and school districts to make the decision on prohibiting firearms on school grounds
'Murica!
Captain Obvious the USA is the greatest country in the world
I should add though that just like the Romans did prior to their collapse you do have the greatest stadiums and spectacles to keep the masses distracted. Congratulations.
Armed teachers at this school proves only that so far they have been lucky.
And if they become unlucky, like any school that becomes "unluckly", and I think we mean targeted, will they fare better than an unarmed "gun free zone"? My guess is if they become targeted they fare better than a school where their only option is to hunker down and wait for someone to rescue them. If you were yourself in a situation with an active shooter, would you prefer to be armed or have someone there with you who is armed? If the shooter is coming into the room with you, or is bashing down whatever door is between you and them, what situation do you want to be in? Armed or unarmed?
What a sick society you live in.
As a parent and grandparent i totally agree with this texas school.
Ahh shit now we just need a teacher to be In a bad mood then with this badass kids now and days ohh shit not good
It might work, but that doesn't mean it's a solution.
dsmyify what do you mean?
we recognise problems through their symptoms. Pain in the left arm is a symptom of heart disease for example. A solution needs to fix the problem and not just it's symptoms. Treating the left arm doesn't mend the heart. Giving teachers guns; is that fixing the problem or fixing a symptom?
dsmyify I don’t think arming teachers with gun is a good idea, I prefer having armed guards to be in school instead.
Everything Sucks ~ correlation doesn't equal causation. Believing gun free zones lead to active shooters represents specious reasoning.
Rather that thinking about ways to stop an active shooter why not think about ways to not have shooters in the first place?
The best way to stop a bad guy with a gun is make sure they can't get a gun. Prevention is better than the cure.
Give up the right.
It's a difficult one. Was told a story once of a business trip to a remote area in the Soviet Union. The law was in the hands of the local towns people; no control over guns. Bodies littered the side of the streets. Life meant very little. Like the war zones, like the old wild west and like the ghettos.
Terrorists win based on the response of those they terrorize. Active shooters are terrorists. How you respond to them determines whether or not they win. More guns in response to a terror attack, to a shooting, that's responding to the fear, that's giving in to the fear, that means the terrorist won.
Good luck America.
GOOD WORK FOR ONCE CNN! More of it please, your base will still like you they are sheep and you know it.
Fuck yeah
If schools are close to border towns with drugs running around, and DRUG THUGS. SMART DECISION, I have been raised to respect guns... Guns in the right places & people,,,
Let's just get rid of automatic weapons. Keep your CC pistol. I don't mind. Let's work together to reduce military grade weapons while also preparing to defend ourselves with reasonable weaponry.
Randy sure thing. Being that automatic weapons were used in less than 5 crimes im the last 80 years or so I think it's safe to say they aren't a major issue.
Automatic firearms have been illegal longer than you have been alive (over 30 years)
There is only one danger left now "the crazy teacher"
A dishonest statement persists! I am a teacher not a law officer is all I want to hear after L E T H A L force, which is in no way another right to hold/stage or communte or grant clemency, or grant solemnity to an educator, of we'd have hoped the highest standard of the correct state of mind to not ask what question deserves a violent answer? In between that answer and a childs harms way, a court of law. This law, exception to rule, which grants special access, simply will not be tolerated. Not until full disclosure and civil joinder with an H O N E S T hardworking american people may have the manner elucidated further as to why an educator? Of all people has now the right? Not so. To teach? Maybe. Not to hold stage grant clemency or commute even an officer sworn a solemn oath to serve and protect. Unless upheld by the highest standard in a majority rule bifurcated bicameral bipartisan democrat or republican honest way of learning, hmm equality? No?
How about the role of the state representative in another jurisdiction? Because these are far past grounds for charges to be pressed, i dont know, maybe by the great state of Maryland, in which a law making body still may understand reckless endangerment and that of harms wsy? No? How about a learning model and the right of people to reach a joinder? No? How about criminal hmmm? Idk i think you like your taxpayer funded pay stub?
Maybe the free faith and full fair credit of a non homicidal idiot can knock you to a public apology
Most logical defence.
A school in a county 150 miles northwest of Ft. Worth with only 13,000 people (in the entire county) are scared that a loony will charge in from Highway 287 to shoot up a school.
Now compare that to Marjory Stoneman Douglas in the Miami metro of Parkland, FL where over 31,500 live just in the city alone (Nearly 2-million in the county). Now with Sandy Hook in the New York City metro of Newtown, CT where over 28,000 people again just live in that city alone (Over 950,000 in the county).
I think the reason Harrold ISD hasn't had a mass shooting is for the same reason Cody High School in Wyoming hasn't, barely anyone's there and barely even a reason to go there
#MAGA.
Just because they are armed does not mean that they have stopped a shooting. There's not been a case where a teacher had to draw a weapon. What happens when the teacher never gets a clear shot? Are they going to fire with students in halls and add to the problem? What happens when the police do show up and you have multiple people with guns in the school?
Jim Bosco The Police will be wearing uniforms dipshit. I think they would be able to tell who is who
Just arm the displinary teachers, deputy and the principal. Then start a program on Respect for diversity in schools. Teacher have to spot and tutor children who are different whether in academic performance or people interaction capacity. There must be minimal victimisation of students. Learning to be democratic in a free country isn't easy.
John Myers cultural development doesn't really need so much public funding. We have to understand the cultural ingredient needed to face even higher income levels with the autonomous vehicles and the AI store tools. Have Americans got what it takes to take advantage of this new AI technology enabled tools?
More Entitlement mentality or Practical ready people.
That's what all this CRISIS is all about. The Donald is doing the duck strategy.
How about now?
So, they know who the good guys are and who the bad guys are. Yeah, okay. And if a teacher loses it and shoots a student? Then what?
Catherine Nieves that's the dumbest thing I've heard today, the teacher isn't going to go "well shit, he's shooting kids so I will too"
Catherine Nieves they won't, and there is signs before hand right
Catherine Nieves look this isn't an easy fix but God damnit Trump is trying
Such a dumb comment.
Jake Schefers that’s not what I wrote. What I wrote was that a teacher can just as easily loose it and shoot a kid. 🙄. So really, what you wrote is the dumbest thing yet.
So what?Violence engenders violemce!
Actually it doesn't. Everyday, innocent people who are unarmed are subject to violence. Stop using cliche' bullshit.
BlueonGoldZ..so you dont think violence breeds violence?
A seemingly easy answer for a complex problem...think again.
Bloodbath waiting to happen
I can't promote that dude
"If we WAS to have an active shooter..." ..... Oh look the dislike button works!!!!
Very very scary
What is scary about firearms? Only cretins who misuse them.
You're a coward. Pure and simple. This also means you would never do anything to save children if you had the power to do so in a situation like this. If the police take minutes to respond and be in a position to do something, then NO one else can either? Cowardly and foolish, and you should be ashamed of your situation.
YEEEEE HAAAAAAW
.
I hope legislators were smart enough to include a clause that prohibits teachers from using their guns to enforce classroom discipline by threatening to shoot misbehaving students. That would basically turn teachers into prison wardens.
The AR-15 is not a gun it is much much more damaging than a gun. It is a killing rifle. Here is a Wikipedia definition the specifies the relationship between the M16 and the AR-15...The M16 rifle, officially designated Rifle, Caliber 5.56 mm, M16, is a United States military adaptation of the ArmaLite AR-15 rifle. The original M16 was a selective fire 5.56mm rifle with a 20-round magazine.
Shewolf Three it’s a gun that is a great civilian rifle for hunting, which is how most people use it. It’s actually the first gun I ever used (very light recoil)
Exchange God for guns. Bad choices
That's insane. Hire cops or former cops.
So ... are you in favor of keeping the second amendment, *or* are you a true christian?
