Something's wrong with that picture, people need to step back and take in the whole issue.

Its great that some teacher volunteer say "hey i can do it," but those are not the teachers im worried about once the school makes a decision like this. Its the teacher there after who have no experience with a weapon, the teacher whose name is drawn out the hat to take on that responsibility, and the teacher who simply is not responsible enough to secure a weapon. These are the teachers where we hear about the next horror story.

Well in this context of school and when your dealing with children, you'd think people would look harder and think longer about this than the average gun nut who just says arm everybody. But really from the gun lobby, its not surprising.

To a point pilots are armed but with detection equipment and procedures to keep guns off planes in the first place.

Well there you go. After 9/11 we didn't arm the pilots, we put in procedures to try to keep weapons off the plane in the first place.

Finally you see the light. Planes are safer because there are no guns allowed. Eliminating guns is the answer, as you yourself have argued.
