What I think... Teachers should not have guns because what if a kid got caught in a crossfire of the guns. Another reason that teachers should not carry guns is like at a high school kids if they got left in a room Unattended and the teacher the the gun in the desk and the kid knew it and the kid got ahold of the gun. Then that would end in disaster. Another reason that teachers should not have guns is that what if a student had been constantly annoying and being disrespectful and the teacher finally just snapped and shot the kid, that would send the teacher to jail and the kid either to heaven or to the hospital. Another reason that teachers should not have guns is that teachers are there to teach the kids not be a security guards or a babysiter.…
Specialists have grasped the concept of becoming proactive instead of reactive to situations where lives are at stake. Professionals believe that arming teachers in school districts can help protect children from the up rise of violence in school. Although this idea may be a headed in the right direction, I feel as if there are more effective procedures. Hiring armed security guards removes the cost a school would have to pay to train teachers. This will also eliminate the risk of schools being dropped from their insurance policies or having to pay more as a result of having armed teachers.…
About a month or two ago, there was a school shooting in Parkland, Florida. The seventeen people who lost their lives were a wake-up call to people all over the world.

I do not think teachers should be allowed to carry a concealed weapon on school premises. Outside of school, depending on your background check you may be able to conceal carry, which I do believe is a good idea for safety reasons. The only men or women that should be able to carry a gun on school premises is a police officer, or a retired or undeployed military veteran. They are trained for months, if not years on when and when not to use…
It wouldn't be safe if they let teachers to carry weapons. It will probably not happen because teachers could not know what to do with it or do something bad. So maybe in the future there will be a chance this will happen but not know because a teacher can turn and shoot up the school. This is just facts about how dangerous to let a teacher carry a weapon.…
Don 't for a minute think that a secured gun, stored in a school, would be inaccessible. For a gun to be available for defense, it needs to be accessible. That means it would be accessible to more than just the principal or teacher. This will become an even greater concern, should more states pass gun laws that allow people with valid pistol permits to also carry them in schools” (Moore). A gun in the classroom will disrupt the learning environment; students will fear the teacher and avoid contact.…
Would you like your teacher having a AK-47 or Python in your class? I strongly agree that wouldn’t let teachers have guns. Teachers could use them against the school. Kids could find the gun and use the gun. People could get hurt in it in other ways.…
Arming teachers would create a disturbing learning atmosphere for children, and likely lead to parents pulling their kids out of such environments.” The most logical conclusion we can draw from this evidence is that teachers shouldn’t be armed with guns because they could be scared to shoot a student. Not only teachers could get scared to shot their former student but, can cause students and parents can be afraid to be around or having kids around that…
As educators, and school administrators, one of the goals is to provide a safe learning environment for students.
