Most teachers DO NOT support this bill and neither do superintendents. Read all the bill and al amendments. Many thing s and issues are unknown by the teachers and general population.
Man I am so tired of hearing people belittle teachers packing heat. In the 1990s some idiot smoking crack thought that just putting up a sign would deter crime. Well the reality is it attracts crime. On a flip side signs welcoming carry seem to deter crime bettr. We argue that arming teachers is a bad idea so instead of arming people who may make a difference we should continue to allow criminals to come in and murder babies? Instead of taking a chance with someone who passes a background check and has no criminal history we instead should continue to allow murders free roam?
We say thats what police are for yet in every instance by the time they arrive dozens of lives are lost and the police at best only keep spectators out after the carnage. We say we want to put police in schools yet everyone says that this wont work either. Well hello the police not being there definately is not working. We say we could use security guards and idiots throw up a gun in school could be dangerous. Well we see what no good guns in schools doing.
Why is it when we come up with something everyone wants to leave things the way they are and make a new law. Look at history and see where these things led.
in the 1700s England imposed a weapons embargo. We simply started making our own.
in the 1800s we tried to regulate the wild west in many towns and look at the results where villans tore up towns.
In the 1900s we tried to regulate booze and it gave rise to gangsters.
in the 1960s we tried to regulate marijuana and look what its gotten us.
in the 1980s they passed stricter laws about fully auto machine guns and look at the L.A. bank robbery heist in the 90s. Man those guys were scared werent they.
in the 1980s they passed tougher laws on DUI and look how many people daily still do it.
is it not illegal to drive without drivers license? Guess how many daily do it.
What about illegal to drive without insurances? Guesses?
What about speeding (Not talking 5 or so over I am talking well over 100.) How many do it?
Murder has been illegal for how long?
What about rape?
Child porn?
Domestic violence?
What about Movie and music piracy?
Yet we are supposed to believe one more gun law will make a difference?
ARM The teachers already and start making a positive difference!
