The Most Revolting Press Conference In History

133. As a teacher I find this revolting

So we are going to turn our schools into armed fortresses if LaPierre has his way? Thank you no. Kids are scared enough as it is--having adults strapped on a daily basis--won't make them feel any safer. Sorry, but i know kids and if they know people are carrying guns around them--they AREN'T going to think "Oh goodie. I'm safe now."

I have gotten into it on other sites with people who agree with LaPierre--and have told me straight out if I'm not willing to carry a weapon around the school on a daily basis to protect the children--I don't deserve to be a teacher. My answer is that if I wanted to be in law enforcement, I'd have become a police officer. Nurturing and protecting children does NOT require the arming of oneself with a killing machine.

If this is what our society is coming to--then we are in deep, deep trouble.
