More reason to arm citizens/teachers than to ban guns. People have to learn that only you can prevent forest fires....
I mean your own sheep death. Waiting for help ain’t gonna happen when they don’t have what it takes to do their job. They are there for the perks and paycheck, not to get shot at for you. Banning guns will only make it harder for the good citizens to acquire them. More guns equal less crime. It’s been proven time and time again. Literally every Democrat city, bans in firearms, worst crime and death stats. It’s elementary my dear.
I visited the Philippines in 2004 and remember being concerned that they had armed guards at every large public gathering place like the mall, with shotguns or rifles. The schools also all had 10 foot masonry walls with metal gates and armed guards. I thought these things were a sign that their country was dangerous, which of course it is, and so is America. They are all dangerous because they all have people in them and people have unlimited potential for evil.
We need to get over the stigma that America isn't a dangerous place and forget the fantasy that there wasn't evil in the "good old days", and we want it like that again. I'm unsure if arming teachers is the right thing, but I'm positive that trained armed guards with long rifles should be at our schools. We need to become comfortable seeing men with guns at the doors of every establishment ready to protect us.
I've been in both Mexico and Dominican Republic, where guards with long guns are seen.
That is NOT a good look. It does NOT make for a comfortable environment. We should NOT "become more comfortable" with that look.
Concealed weapons should be fine. Many states now have constitutional carry and you would never know who does or does not have a concealed gun -- and that is the point.
I understand what you are saying, but it very much confirms the point I'm making. Optics can not supersede the safety of our children. If your primary argument against visibly armed guards is it looks bad... I'm inclined to say, "get over it" as a counter argument.
You've been to places with armed guards, but have you lived there? How fast do you think you get used to seeing it, and it becomes background noise?
