Why does Any politician want criminal safe zones?
Any "Gun Free Zone" is an invitation to the criminal. no one will be shooting back.
I would always want the teachers and and staff in my kids schools to be armed.
How else can they protect the children in their charge from another Columbine??
"Gun free zones" don't attract criminals anymore than gun allowed zones prevent crime.Originally Posted by ColorCountry
I have no problem with teachers being allowed to carry to protect themselves, but before I'm going to rely on teachers to protect our children I want the school district to rid the schools of all the pedophiles first.
Guess I will be telling friends and family in Arizona to FIRE GOVERNOR JAN BREWER...

When are folks going to realize that you do not have less of a right to defend yourselves using equal or greater force than may be brought against you, just because you happen to be currently standing in a so-called "Gun Free Zone" ... which BTW more mass murders have occurred in these so-called gun-free-zones than anywhere else since the inception of so-called gun-free-zone legislation...

Which of course begs the question, "what purpose does the gun free zone serve?"
I do believe that school faculty is a 'pedophile free' faculty.

You are more likely to be killed in a mass murder in a so-called gun/weapon-free zone than anywhere else:

"The people never give up their liberties, but under some delusion." - Edmund Burke
Having a "gun free zone" just for the purpose of having a gun free zone is irrational.
If my kids' schools were so unsafe for my children that arming teachers would make them safer, then I would want trained competent security in the school instead. I've got nothing against a teacher being armed for self protection. But I'm not giving over my child's safety to a rag tag team of self appointed sheriffs.
Perhaps a compromise would be to require that any teacher who wants to carry in the school needs to have attended, and continue to regularly attend, a firearms use and safety course. We don't let people play lifeguard without continual training in my state. I don't think we should let teachers play security guard without appropriate training either.
I would think that the good folks in your state should let her know that you are not pleased with her stance and will remember it next election.
Actually you can download a whole book in PDF by Schulman, called Stopping Power, which includes that and lots of other good stuff.
