Bill says school districts "may" designate teachers and/or principals to carry. It also says if the designated carrier does not bring the gun to school, that is grounds for termination.
Under the gun measure, lawmakers overwhelmingly voted to nullify all federal gun laws in the state, while allowing some teachers to carry guns in schools. The bill also says some teachers who do not carry guns can be fired, while providing them with limited arrest powers.
The gun bill's passage followed passage of the sustainability and Sharia, or Islamic law, bans. All three bills now move to Gov. Jay Nixon (D) for his consideration. A Nixon spokesman said he did not have a comment until the governor reviewed the bills.
Senate Majority Whip Brian Nieves (R-Washington) trumpeted the bills on Facebook late Wednesday night, describing the gun bill as the "most hard core piece of Second Amendment legislation in the nation."

"The bill also says some teachers who do not carry guns can be fired, while providing them with limited arrest powers".
WTF????????
Why don't they just hire the redneck gun toting assholes to teach at school. I'm sure most of them need to graduate high school themselves. Maybe teach the kids to spit the farthest, or how to skin a squirrel in half the time, and of course shooting classes.
