zackcarp Report post Posted March 29, 2023 The officers did a great job here. Most wackos that show up to do these things don't dress like an average teacher. So spotting them is usually easy. Resource officers usually wear a bright vest or something so they are easy to identify. The staff in this school did a great job locking down, accounting for students and having a staffer waiting for help to give a situational report to arriving officers and a quick lay out of the building. Not everyone can or should be a hero with a gun. The training teachers are getting is great. But like said above, a veteran or 2 at every school would make a huge difference. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Savageman2506 Report post Posted March 30, 2023 they should definitely allow CCW permit-holding teachers to carry at school. Absolutely no reason why a card-carrying person cant or shouldn't be able to defend their classes from these nutjobs instead of waiting for the police to do it for them. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
