"We'd Rather Teachers Die"

That’s what they seem to be telling us with their most recent effort at making a law that might actually WORK to keep mass shooters out of their schools in Florida. They don’t want to ALLOW any teacher to bring their gun to school, so they could protect themselves and their students in case some crazy comes in to kill a few children. They think there should be NO guns carried in schools, except those carried by school resource officers (who can be easily located and “dealt with” before the killing of the children begins). School resource officers are human beings. Teachers are human beings. What is different between the two? Both are presumed to be responsible people, so why shouldn’t the teachers be ALLOWED to bring their already legally-carried guns (if they are “concealed carriers” already) to school, so a potential mass shooter cannot locate, and kill ALL the gun carriers in the school BEFORE the killing of the children begins, since he will not be able to identify them? All their ideas still seem to be silly and unenforceable. But they haven’t a clue to that. They keep doing the same things over and over and expecting a different result. Idiocy.
