[QUOTE="BrownBrokeDown, post: 1342665, member: 46824"] I get what you are trying to say. I don't necessarily agree with the way you are trying to drive it home. Personally, I don't know if I would want the teachers armed either as I don't trust a lot of their judgements/common sense/whatever you want to call it anyway. Unfortunately the solution is neccasarily applicable to a lot of schools right now. Outfit the schools with metal detectors at the entrance. 1 armed security guard at the detector, and one back a ways (2 targets). But like i said, not necessarily doable. A year or 2 ago, the district that my kids are in (2nd largest in the state) layed off most of their crossing guards and then asked for volunteers to do it for free as they didn't have the money to pay the crossing guards. Oh yeah, no background checks required on the volunteers either. [/QUOTE]
