Who's to say the teachers won't go crazy and shoot a bunch of students because they ask too many questions?

Prevent school shootings by bringing in more guns...

I think I just found out what the virtues of homeschooling are.

Yeeeee HAW! *Shoot gun into the air BANG BANG*

Gather 'round chil'ren! We're gonna get some SCHOOLIN in!

*BANG BANG*

School shootings are rare, but when they happen it tends to be a massacre because there is no one there with any ability to stop them. Some one whose intentions are murdering as many as possible will rarely listen to reason.

How about passing a regulation that if a school teacher wants to bring a gun to school they must take a mandatory gun safety course. If they don't take and pass the course, no gun. School is about education, isn't it?

What a great idea! What could possibly go wrong?

I do think this is a good idea.

However, my only cause for concern would be...what if a kid goes and grabs the gun while the teacher is out of the classroom?

I think this should be thought through a little further

IcePigs, does this make you sad for the state of Texas? It does me, and goodness knows my area is well-equipped in the event of a zombie-clypse, in terms of ammo.

Man I might have actually done my Latin homework if i'd known my teacher was packing!

Perhaps in the future schools will look like this...

I really don't have a problem with this at all. It must be the libertarian in me. Heh.

And once again Texas just says "f**k it".

Doesn't everyone in Texas carry a gun?

The only way to solve the problem is to hire chimpanzees as security guards and have them patrol the halls with AK-47's. It's fool-proof.

I'm telling you, people, monkeys with guns will solve all our educational problems!
