    I don't see what is so bad, most of them won't do it anyway. They'll probably make them take a special course and sign a bunch of legal shit where none of them will do it.

    It's Texas. Rural Texas to be exact, so rest assured every douche there owns some sort of firearm, as well as a tractor.

    I'm pro gun and I wouldn't want to deal with the legal nightmare of trying to stop a school shooting. too much risk of splattering an innocents brains all over a chalkboard trying to get the shooter.

    I have no problem with being pro-gun, but putting the possible opportunity (might I add there's handfuls of ideas that come to mind) of a bloodbath happening within a school of all places, this is crossing the line in my opinion.

    They need to include a mental eval to the list of requirements... As well as anger management.

    Yes, and I agree with it.

    "Superintendent David Thweatt said the small community is a 30-minute drive from the sheriff's office, leaving students and teachers without protection.

    When the federal government started making schools gun-free zones, that's when all of these shootings started. Why would you put it out there that a group of people can't defend themselves? That's like saying 'sic 'em' to a dog," Thweatt said in Friday's online edition of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram.


    Thweatt said officials researched the policy and considered other options for about a year before approving the policy change. He said the district also has various other security measures in place to prevent a school shooting."


    Dunno why you people are freaking out about this.

    I see no problem with this personally. If someone is has their mind set on bringing a gun to school, they are going to find a way. And actually, if a student is thinking about it, and knows that a teacher is armed with a firearm, it could possibly discourage them from doing it.
