Should guns be banned in hospitals?

282. me too

i'm in an emergency department as an xray tech in a level one trauma center. the hospital is posted for no guns. there are metal detectors, at the street door and ambulance bays with security cameras, there are limited access and enterance to the dept with passcode badges, we park in a covered garage and have armed security officers. the hospital security staff takes very good care of me and my coworkers and the patients. i know they are trained in firearms, i asked and they do keep up their training. when the president, VP and pres. canidates are in town, i know the secret service has been there, i know those agents are armed and i don't care that they are. there are very very high emotions when someone comes in, sometimes the officers have a lot to do to keep the peace. there are alot of jerks in the world, and hospitals areon their speeddial. no one else needs weapons in the hospital.
