If a properly trained teacher wants to carry in class, and the school develops guidelines for integrating them into its active shooter plans, seems like a good idea....
Help me understand how being "properly trained" means an individual can't suddenly decide to kill everyone around him.
Do police all of a sudden decides to kill everone aroind them? If the teacher already has that capability in him then he shouldn't be a teacher in the first place.

Of course they can. And millions of us concealed carriers do it every single day. We decide not to harm a soul....
So by this reasoning we should disarm cops?
Well if we disarmed America....cops would have little reason to be armed ?
You know...like British and Australian cops.
Wouldn't it be nice to deal with a policemen in the USA would didn't carry the means to kill you in plain sight ?

There are no guarantees that a lunatic or fanatic can't or won't suddenly decide to kill everyone around him.Help me understand how being "properly trained" means an individual can't suddenly decide to kill everyone around him.
It's the ones who ***DO*** decide to harm a soul that I'm worried about
Being a cop doesn't exclude you from this group as that link shows.

How do you manage to leave the house everyday, with that kind of fear?
And how can you possibly get in a vehicle or walk on a sidewalk or thru a parking lot? You are many times more at risk of death/injury from vehicles. If you're not more afraid of the cars...you are a hypocrite.
I included cops, that's why I asked the question. So...should we disarm the police?
he has admitted he is terrified of legal gun owners.
...neither the UK nor Australia are disarmed.
It doesn't. People sometimes change, and as of today, we don't know any way to prevent it. Of course, these teachers are already taking care of your children. A wise parent that became aware that one of the teachers was obviously unbalanced would normally take steps to have the teacher removed.
What shoud be easy to understand, though, is that there is an increased liklihood that another "properly trained" armed person would also be available. This person would have the means to halt or minimize the carnage that would result from an armed loony going berserk.
There are no guarantees that a lunatic or fanatic can't or won't suddenly decide to kill everyone around him.
And there's no guarantee a cop will be present when it happens, or arrive in the nick of time to save the day.
Which is exactly why law-abiding American Citizens have a Constitutional Right to own and carry a firearm.

How do you ?
How do you
I wear a seat belt and try to drive safely...how do YOU cope with the threat ?
Ultimately yes, we should
Caveat: Law Enforcement will always need a lethal response to a lethal threat.
British police have always had access to firearms.
But most British police do not patrol armed to the teeth like their US counterparts.
That would be my goal.
