C'mon, a gun is much more effective in a multiple victim attack.. if for nothing else, at least the reluctance to get close to the shooter. I know I wouldn't go near someone wielding a gun..

How far would these shooters get if schools were not gun free zones, and many people were armed? 2-3? Double figures? Come on guns are a much more effective deterrent of gun violence than 'gun free zones.'

So let's solve gun problems with guns? Sounds logical.

That wasn't the argument though. 

I don't have problems with student having guns as long as they stay in vehicles and not inside the school I do, however, want teachers trained in using guns so that we can end these threats a whole lot sooner.

I'm not suggesting it is, I'm just saying that whether it's a homicide, suicide or accidental with no one hurt, a gun has still been fired in what should ALWAYS been considered a place of safety. I know that's not the way of the world these days, and that's really saddening.
