Glad to hear the adults are still in charge.
Florida was starting to look like Lord of the Flies.

A similar bill was passed in 2014, but floundered in the Florida Senate.

Lol that was required reading when I was in school. Also, we wore bell bottoms.

I heard last night it is already legal in eight states. At least some places have been enlightened. I don't remember hearing of any teachers shooting up a school

One was Hawaii. I think it was 8 states that allow by law or the law is silent on the issue.

I agree with teachers being armed 100%.
The problem I see arising, is how will you vet the teachers to make sure they will actually use the CCW weapon to shoot a "kid" that is at the school to hurt other "kids", especially if they are former students.

Just like the 2nd Amendment. Neither guarantees you will win a gun fight but both give you that chance to win. I will go 50/50 on a armed teacher and 1/99 on a unarmed teacher

Please use the proper sound bites... You can't say "Evaluate and train volunteer teachers to become armed marshals". You have to say "Give teachers guns" then imply that it's not really voluntary and also make it sound like the guns will randomly go off and wing children...

I'm going to guess that student assaults on teachers, if there were any, will suddenly become a non-issue.

But that would require the teacher to have a Hawaii CCW which basically isn't issued.

Yep, allowed in 8 states.

It is almost as if a teacher who wanted to harm their students might consider ignoring laws telling them not to and it seems like teachers who seriously want to kill their students are incredibly rare. So rare I don't recall that happening off hand. They probably have been historically unlikely to shoot kids if we trust them alone with a room of students everyday.

I come across something the other day that basically said that the Democrats don't like generation Z because they tend to be financially responsible, and tend to vote Republican.

My ultra liberal neck bearded BIL who is married to the ultra liberal Mizzou "educated" CNN commentator posted a meme on Facebook today of a thin, frail, pale white woman pointing a handgun at a cowering black child. The caption said something about "Arming teachers is an excuse to murder black students".
