    If there are “borderline” teachers that can pass under the radar, teachers that the school boards are running back ground checks and all that they do when checking them out, then how do you propose we a better job of identifying the at risk students?  Run a check on every student?, not to mention the non-student wack job that just picks a school to make a “statement”. 

    Our childern are our most importent asset, the most [b]valuable thing[/b] we have, deserving of THE most protection that we can give them, if we trust these people with our childen 5 days week, up to 8 hours a day, to mold them, teach them, be one of the most influential people in their young lifes, then why not trust them with a gun, if they choose to have one?

    I belive that the reason this school board will allow these teachers to carry weapons is to pervent a confrontation or be perpared for one.  “The [b]Second Amendment[/b]  protects the right to possess and carry weapons (i.e. “keep and bear arms”) in case of [b][u]confrontation[/u][/b].”
