I'd say my argument is two fold. First of all, if you celebrate the death of another person (and the wounding of two) because it helps prove a point in a political discussion, you need to stand up and admit you've failed as a human being. Second of all, if school shootings are such a persistent issue that arming teachers is considered to be a viable countermeasure, you need to stand up and admit you've failed as a society.

I rejoice in the fact that the shooter was killed, not because of the politics, but because it's what should happen when people act that way.

School shooting aren't that persistent, they just get all the coverage. In fact, one might infer that the rise in shootings is in direct correlation to that coverage. "Arming teachers" isn't about buying them guns, it's about ending the prohibition on the free exercise of rights of those who wish to arm themselves.
