i love my state - TN to secretly arm teachers | |
| Anonymous Coward User ID: 9664906 12/20/2012 09:17 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Being armed didn't help those at Ft Hood, what makes you think arming a civilian teacher would be any different. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 628775 The soldiers at Ft Hood weren't armed, stupid. What, do you think that all soldiers on state side bases carry around M4s? Only the MPs are armed except during training. What you are suggesting is that a gunman is some type of omnipotent being that can't be killed.....except by law enforcement I suppose. No, a teacher should be able to shoot as well as the typical unskilled madman. So you are tellingme that there wasn't one gun on site at FT Hood? ![]() You OBVIOUSLY do not know the facts, Canucktard. Other than military police, NONE of the soldiers had ACCESS to firearms at the time of the attack. Not only is this information available to anyone who spends a few minutes investigating, but I had a friend who was stationed there at the time, and HIS story confirms the facts. Please... Do just a LITTLE bit of research before making an ass out of yourself. I think you are missing his point retard. What he was saying was that the threat of being stopped by MPs who were armed didn't act as a deterrent, and those were soldiers. I wonder how much he would have sweat over some out of shape, poorly trained teacher with a handgun barely powerful enough to cause serious injury. |

Quoting: lightchild_uk Perhaps they should have tasers instead? Yeah... There isn't a snowball's chance in hell that some burnt out teacher who has had enough and just snaps would open fire on a bunch of students. I mean, teachers have NEVER snapped and assaulted students before. Not a single teacher has EVER had to be committed or take a leave of absence after having a mental or emotional breakdown. What will the solution be then? Arm the students? Besides, there was a good chance there would have been well-armed and well-trained law enforcement in that area or on school grounds, and that didn't stop him. I'd love to see what some poorly trained teacher with a tiny handgun that probably wouldn't put down a perp without emptying the whole clip would do against a heavily armed perp in body armor who has the element of surprise. Your solution then is to just keep going with the "Gun Free Zones?" I wonder what is wrong with your brain. More specifically, I'm saddened that your parents chose to breed. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 628775 You Canucktards just don't rest, do you. Neither does Satan. The Fort Hood personnel weren't armed. Not lecturing you, just wanting to point this out - very explicitly - to those who keep trying to ignore this fact. Hey... I AGREE with you, so no NEED to "lecture". I know! I was only pointing this out because other posters continue to overlook the facts. We're on the same team ;-) No offence meant towards you at all. |

How can you turn on your television and see the tragedy that happened in Connecticut and not be concerned for the safety of your child? Do you realize that this isn't the first mass murder at a school? Do you think these things will mysteriously go away? Or is your solution to simply say "Wow, you guys are scared.

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 9664906 12/20/2012 10:18 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | You guys want to know the real reason people want to arm teachers so badly? It ain't to protect your children. Give it a couple years, and the next massacre will be an armed teacher. So what will happen after that? Bureaucrats will start passing draconian laws just like the PATRIOT act aimed at protecting your children from the teachers. Armed guards and security checkpoints at every school. They'll use this opportunity to crack down on "disciplinary" problems too. Your school will be turned into an indoctrination camp that is under martial law all in the name of protecting your children. They'll be sure to cover the hospitals and everything else as well while they are at it. Wouldn't want any "soft targets" where your children can get hurt. What comes next? Because if you say, "why not take the guns away from the teachers?" they will just start screaming at you that you are unamerican and don't support your constitutional rights guaranteed to you by the second amendment. They are using you. They are using your belief you have freedom and rights by leveraging your rights in such a way that they make you believe they are protecting them, when in actuality, they are are just using them to trap you and make you a prisoner.

So far I'd say they've played us masterfully. Like Mozart conducting one of his own symphonies. The thing is though, what's to stop a teacher right now, today, from bringing a gun in and shooting the kids? Nothing. Right? So far, the score is what? I don't honestly know, but it's something like (recent history here) Innocent kids killed at school by lunatics: 100+ Innocent kids killed at school by teachers: 0 Shouldn't we look at giving this thing a chance? Have rigorous background checking and psychiatric evaluation for teachers to qualify to carry. Followed of course by serious training by law enforcement. If they really want to nab us so badly, they're going to anyway. I appreciate your post - it gives me food for thought. |
