    A shooter knowing there are people with guns in the school and not wanting to risk return fire will be deterred. A gun free zone sign is an invitation to open fire on students.

    Why would someone who is mentally ill be deterred by knowing that there is someone who is armed. Most die in the attack anyhow even if this one did not. These are not rational people.

    well it's not really that outlandish. Of course they would need training. It should be voluntary. They should be given intense background checks to have been teachers to begin with, after all we trust them with our children. And a lot of teachers already own guns. Especially if they would find interest in this. A good pistol isn't that bad.

    If they thought he might have a gun then maybe he wouldn't get jumped.

    Being able to teacher, and not having a criminal record which is what the background checks would find, is different than having the right temperament to use a gun in a very difficult situation. This is not target practice, it is shooting someone who might shoot you with large number of screaming crying people distracting you. Even trained professionals make mistakes then. An amateur would be much more inclined to panic and make a mistake.

    They don't care. They want us disarmed and if they have to exploit dead children to do it, obviously they will. They want no discussion, they want no compromise, they want power and they want us defeated. They no longer even accept election results. Dems are rapidly approaching the same place they were shortly before they started the Civil War. For extra credit, who was the ONLY Democrat Governor to resign, rather than join the Democrats Confederacy?

    It's so laughably obvious. Multiple threads criticizing the idea of letting our schools' good guys have the appropriate tools to deter and disable armed threats is proof positive of an orchestrated narrative, and proof positive that the ONLY 'solutions' the radical gun control cult will accept is banning/criminalizing sale and possession of semi-automatic rifles and stripping the 2nd Amendment from the Bill of Rights.

    So you either just admitted to lying or you admitted to being ignorant. I wish we had those numbers as well, but your signs and 100s of new laws won't prevent a single one. Not 1.

    They seem to get them to that level in Canada and every other developed nation. It must all just be one gigantic coincidence that all the rest of the developed world has these low numbers and we don't. Just one big coincidence. Holy cow....do you read what you post?

    Who are the liars at CNN who censored this shooting victim hero and then, without a thought, nationally slandered him?
    On Thursday evening, one of the students who acted heroically during the shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Florida revealed who at CNN allegedly censored him from speaking freely during CNN's one-sided anti-gun town hall event on Wednesday night. Earlier that day, CNN adamantly denied the student's initial claim that questions were "scripted."
    Colton Haab, the heroic ROTC student who shielded students during the shooting, appeared on Fox News' "Tucker Carlson Tonight" with host Tucker Carlson where he alleged that CNN producer Carrie Stevenson, who is the executive producer for Jake Tapper's "State of the Union" television show, was the person who censored him.

    Not sure what this has to do with the price of tea in china. You were closer with the civil war stuff. LOL

    Did you see CNN's response? You are hilarious!

    Our moral, ethical, and intellectual betters in the media can't seem to figure out why nobody trusts them anymore. Their profession tends to poll about as well as the dregs of society, like pimps and drug dealers and politicians. And yet the less respect journalists earn, the more they demand. The less professional they are, the more they scold us for talking back to them. The more we expose their lies, the louder they lie.

    The kid is lying and you bought it. LOL

    There is absolutely no truth,” to Haab’s claim, CNN’s Vice President of Communications and Digital Partnerships Matt Dornic told TheDC. “CNN did not provide or script questions for anyone in last night’s town hall, nor have we ever.”

    “After seeing an interview with Colton Haab, we invited him to participate in our town hall along with other students and administrators from Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School. Colton’s father withdrew his name from participation before the forum began, which we regretted but respected. We welcome Colton to join us on CNN today to discuss his views on school safety.”

    CNN didn't even hesitate to smear a hero of the tragedy in the search for the propaganda production. Have they identified the kids at the school that bullied the shooter?

    Of course. The testimony of one of the heroes of the shooting, who actively shielded potential victims from bullets.

    I have the testimony of one of the heroes of the shooting, who actively shielded potential victims from bullets, who you describe as "nothing" because you can extract no propaganda value from him.

    Mark the moment you refused to accept the results of an election, it was a mark on the trail you past that will lead your side again to tremendous regret. Do you know what it was like for Democrats when they started and lost the Civil War? Do you know that the bloodshed only ended after 30% of the military aged democrat males in the south were killed? That's the problem with not studying your history, it dooms you to repeating it.

    If the Left will not accept election results that they lose, why should the Right? And if the Left is forcing a situation where we settle disagreement by force rather than votes, why in the world would we surrender the second amendment simply because you scream about it? If you want 2A repealed, we have a process for that. Why do you hate the constitution so much?

    Why do you smear this young man from the shooting?

    have you ever wondered why the radical gun control cult (leftists, all) is mostly quiet about the huge number of gangland shootings that involve handguns, but squeal like stuck pigs when [white] people use semi-automatic rifles to kill [white] people?

    has much to do with their cynical Victim/Oppressor politics and their unconstitutional (and totalitarian) plans for this nation.
