What about the pa...Oh yea, that one infuriates me. What about the parents? The kid gets suspended from school for bullying and somehow gets hold of his parent's gun. How is that the school's fault?<br />Good points on the teachers with guns, I'd never considered the no-win situation that puts them in. Don't react - shoulda reacted. react - just made things worse. Guess I'll stop bringing my gun to work now. (Just kidding, I don't even own one.)Max Sartinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07271198231897203659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2313795221042048302.post-50677157008374560772013-06-13T18:43:46.205-06:002013-06-13T18:43:46.205-06:00Oh, so true!
The boy who shot himself at a school ...Oh, so true!<br />The boy who shot himself at a school in our district this year: the media's trying to make it the SCHOOL'S fault because the kid had gotten suspended earlier. I'm sorry the boy made the wrong decision, but it was not the school's fault he overreacted to a consequence of some other action he'd performed.<br />This is also why I don't think it's a good idea for teachers to have guns in school. If they used them to defend someone, they'd be in trouble for using guns in students' presence or for something like "inciting the assailant towards more violence." If they had a gun and chose not to use it, then they'd become nearly criminal for not doing this, that, or the other. It would be impossible to do the right thing, either way.Lisa Shaferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08141316010311729143noreply@blogger.com
