I went to a comedy night recently.
The comedian said “I don’t really want someone who loses it about me not wearing the right blazer carrying a gun.”
Hard to disagree with that.
Have you ever got angry about something trivial. Hell, I got angry recently because the idiots at McDonalds didn't put my apple pie in the bag when I went through the drive through. Would you trust yourself with a gun?The comedian said “I don’t really want someone who loses it about me not wearing the right blazer carrying a gun.”
Hard to disagree with that.
I can't think of any of my teachers that I think could not be trusted with a gun. I do not think arming teachers is a good idea, but that is a separate topic to which teachers could be trusted with guns.

AFAIK mass shootings are when 4 or more people have been killed.
What if someone goes a bit postal and shoots 20 people who survive, then that's not a mass shooting?Is there an equivalence table, 4 injured = 1 killed for example?
I was watching Active Shooter about the Batman movie shooting. One of the survivors was hit from a 5.56mm bullet, he's still in a lot of pain and walks with a limp. These smaller calibre bullets do some tremendous damage.
Most mass shootings attributed to gang violence?? Where does that come from?
I don't think that's the case.

Very sad, going postal has now been replaced by doing a columbine.
It's a great fact that their original plans all went wrong immediately.
What they really need is not teachers with guns, but homeless people with guns. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2018/mar/15/us...
