Keep the military out of her mouth, bases are gun-free at the commanding officers discretion, but there are armed personnel everywhere on bases and lets not forget he was also one of those deadly professional soldiers before he shot the place up, he knew that those soldiers wouldn't be armed and wouldn't be expecting to be shot at on base. I respect her opinion and don't beleive that arming teachers is a solution to the problem.
