[Think. Again.]

1. My deepest gratitude to these students.

[live love laugh]

2. Waiting for one of the teachers to "mistakenly" kill somebody on campus.

13. Or some student or outsider getting a teacher's gun and

doing some shooting

[Blue Idaho]

3. As a teacher of thirty one years

I can guarantee you this is not the answer. I’m very proud of these students!

[Docreed2003]

4. K&R

[wnylib]

5. Students showing more sense than the adults.

I can remember some teachers who never should have been in a classroom, let alone armed.

[republianmushroom]

6. Smart students, smarter than the senate in Nashville.

[evolves]

10. Well, the students

aren’t funded by the NRA…

[comradebillyboy]

7. I used to teach math and science in high school.

If I had been armed in class I would have been sorely tempted to off some of my more obnoxious students and maybe an administrator or two as well in a moment of weakness.

20. Probably would have made parent-teacher conference night go a little smoother too.

[Earth-shine]

21. That's because you are an ordinary human being. We ordinaries should not ordinarily have guns on our persons.

It will always be a temptation if you don't like someone.

8. Inspiring.

11. Most excellent!

It's way past time to stop the NRA / Fox insanity!

[twodogsbarking]

12. Are any teachers already armed? Would they care?

[kimbutgar]

14. This next generation I hope goes blue and outlaws assault weapons

And votes out these gun humpers. Guns have no place in schools!

And on a bad day when some students are really misbehaving and out of control you don’t want a teacher to be armed!

[OMGWTF]

15. If a student throws a rock, the answer is NOT to give all of the students and teachers rocks. JFC!

[JoseBalow]

16. Imagine cops responding to a shooting and finding a building full of armed people

[Hermit-The-Prog]

17. The Russiapublicans (formerly, Republicans) say more guns will solve everything.

[Wild blueberry]

18. Hurray for these students!

Thank you!

[Wednesdays]

19. And they are voters

or will be very soon!

[poozwah]

22. huh?

arming teachers to prevent violence is like fvkking for chastity.
