Adding to the requirements of being a teacher is being a sharpshooter! The new sheriff in town is the school marm/man. Who'd a thunk it?

Only female and male Gary Coopers/John Waynes need apply. Do they also need to ride a horse, drink whiskey and chew tobackey?

    There probably is a few teachers that go to bed every night thinking that they would like to shoot some of their students  so arming them might be a dream come true. Also just because a teacher has a gun  doesn't mean that they will be a hero when the bullets start flying. Instead of  training teachers they should hire ex Marines to keep the students save. Cheers!

    Great idea Nanoose! I asked a question about having snipers at every entrance to every school in the United States! Your idea could work too! Thank you for your  reply and Happy Thursday! :) I'm gonna ask a question about that and credit you. I hope you don't mind. Let me know if you do. I'm gonna ask it NOW!

    There are no "ex"-Marines.  Once a Marine, always a Marine.

    Yep and once a hero always a hero so a retired Marain would be perfect for guarding the lifes of kids. Cheers!

    WOuld the teachers' guns be locked away as is required for most legit guns. If so, would they have the time to unlock them. If not, what's to stop them being pinched and save the madmen the trouble of getting one for themselves.

     I dunno m'dear. I asked a question a few minutes ago about having all teachers wear fully automatic weapons on a chain around their necks so they could access them immediately. I also asked how often the bullets hit their marks? I mean do cops always take down what they shoot at? What is the percentage of accuracy generally? Thank you for your reply Malizz and Happy Thursday. It's a big problem and the solution is something the powers that be will not take to kindly. REDUCE THE NUMBER OF GUNS AVAILABLE. So we're stuck trying to find another way to protect our kids. How sad is that? :(

    This is a very stupid idea. I would be much more nervous having a teacher who is untrained with shooting someone and might hit me or others instead.
    It might be more expensive to hire trained shooters but much safer all the way around.
