[quote:Anonymous Coward 30288790:MV8yMDg4Mjg2XzM1MTYyMjEyX0M5Nzc5OUYw] Why are American's so Triple A rated stupid? Why are they so unable to think beyond guns? There are numerous other alternatives that are NEVER considered. For instance, if you want people in schools who can act as a first line of defence, why not arm up some security guards with long bows. Remember, the Welsh Long Bow is capable of puncjing through 2 inches of mild steel at 100 yards and at ranges of under 10 feet has the same impacting pressure wave of a Point 50 Magnum. A Long bow will incapacitate or seriously hospitalise a lone gun man, yet will rarely kill on first use AND speed of reloading drags makes it hard for anyone to create a "massacre situation". However much you laugh, as showing in the film :"Weatherman" people really, really move away from you scared if you walk down the street with one. [/quote]

I heard Arizona is also considering it to in the wake of you-know-what.
Let Teachers Carry Guns? Some State Lawmakers Say Yes
By Mark Memmott
published on Wed December 19, 2012 12:52 pm
There are reports from a variety of states about local lawmakers who want to give teachers the right to bring guns to school. They're making the case that school shootings such as the one Friday in Newtown, Conn., that left 20 small children and six adults dead could be prevented or stopped if some school staffers were armed.
Monday, Texas Gov. Rick Perry (R) said that teachers with licenses to carry concealed handguns should have "access to weapons in their school."
