Armed Teachers in Schools

[u812ic 1,629]

Are the Teachers in your school armed? In some Countries, teachers are armed, but not with guns. 

 

Whether or not the teachers in your school are armed, how do you feel about it? 

 

If schools arm teachers with guns, should the gun be kept in the classroom or in the school armoury? 

 

Should teachers be trained in hand to hand combat instead of being armed or in addition to being armed?

 

In some countries, the school property is fenced in with armed guards at the gate and patrolling the grounds. The teachers still have access to weapons, but they are not kept in the classroom. In this sense they are the last responders instead of first responders. Is this a better alternative?

 

I'm no longer in school, so I'd like to hear your feedback. In the school I went to, there was the occasional destruction of school property, but nothing more than that. There was only one student that ended up in prison. He was a repeat offender (in and out of school), had been before the Judge several times and was declared incorrigible.

 

What are your thoughts about armed teachers in schools.

All my teachers have 2 arms.

Teacher should be able to teach, not to be a guardian.

i think students should be armed and shoot teachers who give bad grades for absolutely no reason

in the USA they are looking into this, here in Canada I don't believe we have them as of yet.

 

as a parent who has had all three of my children in the normal schools . I find this alarming to even allow them to have any weapons in the school areas . due to the fact it might not be a teacher using it but a student who is having issues or other reasons. personally let the police deal with the criminals and have teachers teach,, this is  what there paid for.

I have a few teachers who would pop a cap into me at the slightest provocation, so I dont like that idea. Just get some police to patrol the school.

Yeah I think teachers should be armed. If they didn't have any arms they probably would have a hard time doing things.

[Tanker-Arthur 2,971]

Yes, all my teachers are armed. They can throw books and stuff at people, stab them with pens and pencils, or knock people out with the metal chairs and such.
