I h...I have to agree with this on several levels. <br />I have to say that it is sad that we have reached this point. Arming teachers is a great idea. This is apparently common practice in other countries across the globe. I do want to note that people need to be screened before arming them for this situation. There are just some people who react to stressful situations with panic...the ones who should be armed are ones who are able to stay calm during this type of situation. <br />Secondly, there is a huge problem with access to mental health programs on all levels. Sadly, people realize that someone needed help immediately (after something like this happens). This is not to say that everyone with mental health issues is a danger...but we are part of a society where people are inadequately evaluated and treated. More of a "you have a problem, let's put a bandage on it".<br />Third, even though we have "come so far" in science, etc., it seems that no one worries much anymore about character or consequences...everything is about "me, me, me" and "Oh, the poor thing must have had an unfortunate childhood; therefore, instead of punishing, let's rehabilitate <we wouldn't want to cause self esteem issues or hurt someone's feelings". <br />Anyway, the only gun control that is important to me is, "are you able to control your gun?"<br />People who want a gun are going to find a gun or make a gun and ain't no law gonna stop 'em...just saying. Thank you, I have had my say. Frustratedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05638106547818356486noreply@blogger.com
