Arming teachers is a great idea

It says in the article “Nobody is going to attack that school. Because they know General Kelly is the history teacher. And he's got a concealed weapon,” Trump said.

Which brings me back to Chris Kyle.

  • If Chris Kyle, a highly trained marksman, and good guy with a gun, was gunned down in a shooting range, surrounded by other good guys with guns… what makes you think an (at best) amateur marksman will fare better?

Theres examples of good people with guns stopping bad ones with guns.

That’s not answering my question

Chris Kyle was a good guy with a gun and he was with other highly trained good guys with guns. Yet they couldn’t stop one bad guy with a gun. So what makes you think a amateur teacher is going to stop a shooter with assault rifles decked out in military gear?

People cite examples of wrongful use of guns as though it proves such use will always be the case....except for the cops they place all their trust in to defend them.
But there are positive examples of armed self defense too.
This is a recent one...
Mother, daughter thwart armed robbery attempt at Oklahoma liquor store
These gals stopped a guy who is accused of multiple armed robberies, which would've continued.
Where were the cops when he attacked them?
Elsewhere, as is just about always the case.

Chris Kyle a highly decorated veteran and other veterans that faithful day just got “unlucky”

So a I guess a amateur teacher is going to have more luck than a higher decorated solider.

@Jollybear slaves were not looked at as commodities, they weren’t looked at as workers. The slaves were thought of as PROPERTY. That in and of itself would negate any semblance of worker status. In fact, the SCOTUS ruled in the infamous Dred Scott case of 1857 that “A Negro has NO rights that a Whiteman is bound to respect.”

How is it that a thread about armed teachers
has become about slavery & white supremacy?

It came about because of the issue of backround checks.

Should a white nationalist be able to get a gun. Someone said no, that its dangerous.

I said, not all racists are dangerous.

And with ones "property" you want to protect that property.

Hence, some racist teachers with guns id venture to say wont shoot blacks, but would protect them even.

Protect that property from what?

Whipping and sexual abuse, including rape, were common. So why were salves owners do those things to these so called “properties” they want to protect???

You gave no further information other than some people get lucky and some are unlucky

Also salves are brought to be sold and work.

I had to fill in the gaps
 
How do u know, not all racists are dangerous?????

I know what racism means. It means someone who thinks there race or ethnicity is superior over the other.

Now thats not the same as hating or wanting to kill the other ethnicity. Thats a leap.

I can believe im superior to animals but that dont mean i hate or want to kill them.
