IIRC, it is legal in TX to OC in your place of business. School=teacher's place of business. :)

Might want to be careful with this line of reasoning. You might be able to OC in "your" place of business. You don't actually own the school as a teacher but are an employee so this probably doesn't cover you.

I completely disagree. I think guns have just as much ofa place in schools as do footballs, baseballs, hockey sticks and cheerleading pom-poms. I think schools should bring back shooting sports and rifle clubs. Shooting sports teach discipline, responsibility, and safety.

This might make an interesting study. The number of kids killed or injured annually in school or during school activitiessuch as sports compared to those killed or injured by guns. Nationally or by state

Swimming pools kill more kids every year than guns do. So why aren't pools illegal?
