Oh my god.
It’s like if you guys had to define for me what a television is.
Wait. Are you telling us you’re not Tuvalu’s Frink? You’re Television’s Frink?!?
I’m not telling you anything.
Well then I’ll keep imagining you in a grass skirt.
Damn I’m sexy.
Oh my god.

Well that’s ruined. Now I’m imagining something safer: you arriving at the door wearing a tool belt, to fix the cable.

Just the tool belt though.
I’m in high school. I have many wonderful teachers. I don’t think any of them should be armed. Some of my teachers, and again, I love them, can hardly even operate a DVD player. I do not want any of them to be given firearms.
What about police officers that are extremely well trained and especially for a school environment and whom had been extremely background checked?

Every time another one of these mass shootings happen - right when the Republicans start telling us that the answer is more guns, guns for everyone, guns for teachers, guns for students - I think about Chris Kyle.
https://twitter.com/markpopham/status/964157915056803840
Chris Kyle was the American Sniper guy - a highly decorated Navy Seal sniper with 150 confirmed kills in the Iraq War. Whatever else is true about him, he definitely was very good at shooting guns and used to being in combat environments.
https://twitter.com/markpopham/status/964158367697723392
Kyle knew that the man he was with was dangerous. He knew he was armed - he armed him! To the degree that anyone could be forewarned and prepared for a situation, Kyle was. And yet the other guy shot two armed and trained men dead, got in a car and drove away.

Today a bunch of men are going to go to a gun store and they’re going to buy their third or 10th or 25th gun, because this scares them, and they think the gun is going to keep them safe.
You tell me in which scenario does a nut with gun have a better can at killing a lot of people.
- Going into a school where no one is armed.
- Going into a police station full of armed cops.
Or instead of hypotheticals, let’s use real numbers:
But that’s in hospitals. Maybe schools are different.
Maybe these security officers need better training and maybe they need holsters better designed to prevent a perp from doing that.
Honestly the way some of you are talking, it is a wonder you don’t post that you think cops should no longer carry guns. Maybe the military as well.
again, I wasn’t talking about arming teachers, I was talking about having extremely and specially well trained police officers(or perhaps a whole new unit of law enforcement for guarding schools(I have to think of a good name for such)).

that is good info.
but also keep in mind the opposite situation.
You tell me in which scenario does a nut without gun have a better can at killing a lot of people.
- Going into a school where no one is armed.
- Going into a police station full of armed cops.
It would be the second one, where said nut has the opportunity to get a gun. in the first one, he would be stuck with the can only, which isn’t very deadly.
typo corrected. I don’t think an unarmed nut has much of a chance at killing a lot of people by going into a police state and trying to take gun from a cop. If a nut tried that, he’d probably be stopped very quickly by other armed cops.
Maybe we shouldn’t make our schools like prisons? Just maybe?
Maybe having well trained cops doesn’t necessarily make our schools like prisons?
Or maybe making them a little more like prisons is worth it if it prevents tragedies like what happened in Florida?
I don’t think an unarmed nut has much of a chance at killing a lot of people by going into a police state and trying to take gun from a cop. If a nut tried that, he’d probably be stopped very quickly by other armed cops.
But would still have an opportunity to kill people. There’s no guarantee he would be dropped before taking the opportunity to fire several bullets into the bodies of nearby officers.
chyron just put a big Ric pic in your sig and be done with it.

Hmmmm…
Maybe I am the stupid one here.
I see no reason to watch any state of the union address because it’s all horseshit and the only thing it accomplishes is wasting my precious time that I could’ve spent watching better television.
But it IS watching television…
I’m aware that this is a late response, but I said I could’ve spent my time watching better television than the State of the Union.
The Person in Question
Given the amount of unarmed people shot, tackled, beat-up, or otherwise unjustly abused by cops I have no desire to put my children (if I had any) in a school that is under the constant supervision of armed officers, especially since people seem to be under the impression that any questionable behavior from a suspect justifies the use of extreme and even deadly force from the cop. Kids aren’t known for being compliant, you know.
The Person in Question
Given the amount of unarmed people shot, tackled, beat-up, or unjustly abused by cops I have no desire to put my children in a school that is under the supervision of armed officers.
We should put schools under the supervision of football players, who are generally as or more effective at these things as the cops.
