13. I agree 100%

What I disagree with is requiring folks with no demonstrated talent for or interest in carrying a gun to do so. I fully support qualified and experienced CC licensed staff carrying at school, if they wish. There should be a state sponsored law enforcement approved training course and exam featuring tactical scenarios and a 3 year re-training requirement.

I don't support a general arming of some or all teachers.
