Only in Texas!!!!!

I/R you took the words out of my mouth! It needs to be concealed so no one knows who has them! That would work, best I think. Less likely the gun will be taken by the student and used against others.

Those kids are mean. A teacher died here a couple years ago, the students put a medication in his drink. He had a heart condition, it killed him!

I guess it levels the playing field. In fact, if the students thought there was a gun on the teachers person, maybe they'd behave better!

This is a messy situation. Perhaps, all the parents need to take a class, get educated on prev. massacre's (show videos, etc.) and start educating people what to watch for in 'kids that kill.' Like Columbine.

I have no answer. I feel it has to be an individual thing. In fact, I doubt they will get all teachers to agree to carry!

There is a new weapon on the market for everyone's personal use, Tazer's! Doubt that will work on something like, wasn't it in TX in the '70's when that nut sat in a bell tower and shot a bunch of college students for hours! Even with the cops there, they couldn't do much??::wtf: :hippy:

To defend students from any gun-toting maniacs, they can also carry loaded pistols into the classroom. The remote rural community has appalled gun-control advocates by becoming America's first to allow teachers to bear concealed firearms. Harrold's school board Rating: 5
