They have to constantly train so they don't shoot themselves in the foot in a room full of children?

She didn't miss her target

If you choose to believe that guns do not save lives, it is your choice.

In our prisons, we have guards, armed with guns/rifles, batons, mace, etc., etc., to protect themselves, along with other peaceful prisoners....
We also have Security Guards that carry guns to protect Stores and Companies....even guard dogs that patrol at night....
And citizens having gun permits to protect their homes.....
Too many innocent children have been killed in schools, a place where they should feel safe and get an education....Times have changed drastically!....
It's a sad, sad day when teachers and innocent children are being held hostages.....in a place where they should feel "safest"...
I think concealed carry is the way to go. The armed guards are usually the first targets.
What's paranoid, ultraconservative and Tea Party person who pushed for extreme pro-gun law in the school.
You cannot prevent any tragedies, especially school shooting.
I would gladly concede if you can find me a case where a deranged shooter (armed to the teeth, had delusional political/religious/ideological view) with ill intention to cause massacre was stopped by a CCW holder.
I'm sorry but home invasion doesn't count. we're talking about massacre/mass shooting which you argued that an armed citizen can prevent.... not some mugging or home invasion. MASSACRE/MASS SHOOTING. let's focus on that, shall we?
again - I've stated that I will gladly concede if you can find me such case. please do your best and focus. massacre/mass shooting... not home invasion or robbery or mugging or such small trivial thing, ok?
You're wrong ! This tragedy could had been prevented if the shooter's mother did not have 6 guns in her house when she had son that all the warning signs
of being a troubled person. I can't the mother when to a bar and told total strange people she had guns in her house. The shooter tried to buy a gun and was not able to buy one. I wonder if the shooter had to buy the bullets or where they already in the house. Maybe people need to have a back ground checkup to see if they even own any guns before they're allowed to buy 200 bullets. That should be a red flag right there. So you think nothing should be done and people should let their kids be sitting ducks and have some mad person kill them in school?
Perhaps all schools should have bullet-proof windows and iron-clad doors in classrooms that cannot be entered except from the inside.....
Then again, they have to change classes, and go into the school yard for PE/exercising, etc...Bullet-proof armor for each child?....Too bulky....bullet-proof head gear?....Armed guards escorting the children back and forth to their classes?....
Might as well put our children into prisons where there are armed guards to protect them....Drastic, I know....
Would I feel better if my son's teacher was allowed to wear a gun?...Was trained how to use it....and had no qualms about protecting his/her students? Yes, I would. In the wake of this tragedy, and other tragedies before....it's geting worse and worse. We can sit back and do nothing...and when it happens again and again....
you might want to check on that more carefully and read what happened.You mean......like the Clackamas Mall shooting?
yes. trivial in terms of "newsworthy" as it is a common occurrence.... not mass shooting.Also, I am pretty sure people who have been victims of home invasions, robbery and muggings would take exception with your categorizing them as trivial.
