[QUOTE="ez bake, post: 2023143, member: 229"] Since I agreed with your last post, I'm going to disagree with this one - proving that I'm not polar, I'm bi-polar :) I think arming and properly training at least some staff at school has been discussed for quite a while. This is less of a knee-jerk reaction and more political pouncing but the difference between arming/training some staff (not necessarily teachers or all teachers) vs. gun control measures is that facts sort of back up arming someone at the schools where as all the facts/logic/reason directly contradicts gun control (because little-to-no gun control is actually bringing crime to all-time lows). Let me ask you this Whitey - what facts/data/logic do you see that says no staff at schools should be armed (or is it just "All teachers" - this scares me as I know messed up people that are barely functional in society right now)? If you at least agree that arming the right people at schools is beneficial, then I think there is some middle-ground that can at least take the vulnerability away from the factor - a lot of science has gone into determining that that vulnerability is the most appealing thing to someone hell-bent on hurting society as those folks typically don't want a fire-fight or any real resistance at all.
