Millard South Shooting
Lorimor:
Arming teachers will be the last thing this society ever allows. We are so polluted now with PC thought. Reality must be avoided at all costs.

This could have been avoided. I would feel completly comfortable with a teacher with proper training to be able to protect my child. I know who the principles are . They are good people. Please pry to God for thier recovery. More to come. I might not let up on this one for along time. Now it's personal. Hope all you state Senators are listening.

I have absolutely no problem with teachers carrying guns. I think that most of the teachers have a problem with it though. They teach that guns kill people, they teach it so hard that they believe it. I now look for the Omaha schools to install metal detectors at the schools on the recommendation of the OPD.

Former Lincoln SW High student. Had just moved to live with his father and was planning on attending Millard South? I'll be real interested to see how all the facts play out.
And huskergun, I've got your back here as well, I too believe that even a few responsible faculty members training and carrying are the best defensive we could offer. I for one have even pondered offering 'service' (after more training of course) to my childrens' schools, all they have to do is authorize it. I know we have some issues we were wanting to get thru this year, but maybe pushing a 'campus carry' type thing on the heels of this event would be toward our benefit. Utilize the current emotions to carry an agenda thru.
On a related note, I was very impressed to find out that Westridge in Elkhorn just recently performed some 'crisis drills' At least they are not being total sheep about it. I have yet to speak to the principal to find out what all was invovled, but will make it a point now.

The sad part of the metal detectors being brought up is that they would have done no good in the first place. The office is only about 20 feet from the front entry. The detectors won't stop a finger from pressing the trigger. So short of hiring armed guards for every entry, installing metal detectors for a forewarning at every entry as well, you just can't stop everyone.

I think you are probably right about most teachers. I am a teacher too, though, and wish I could carry at work. Schools are PRIME targets for any jack#ss trying to go down in a blaze of glory.
