This is one approach to stopping shootings in schools...the most important aspect.....these schools will no longer be gun free killing zones for mass shooters...and since mass shooters often select targets based on armed resistance ...these schools should be safer....

Armed Teachers Now Trained in 63 Ohio Counties | Buckeye Firearms Association

reated by concerned parents, law enforcement, and nationally-recognized safety and medical experts, FASTER is a groundbreaking, nonprofit program that gives educators practical violence response training.
The program is funded by thousands of small, individual donations to Buckeye Firearms Foundation, a 501(c)(3) charitable educational organization based in Ohio and the sister organization to Buckeye Firearms Association. Classes are provided at NO COST to school personnel or school districts. To date, no tax dollars have been spent on this training.

The program presents a carefully-structured curriculum with over 26 hours of hands-on training over a 3-day class that exceeds the requirements of the Ohio Peace Officer Training Academy.

The purpose is not to replace police and EMT, but to allow teachers, administrators, and other personnel on-site to stop school violence rapidly and render medical aid immediately. It is a well-established fact that faster response to school shootings and other violence results in fewer lives lost.

Eventually, there will be an armed teacher that goes off the deep end after a break up or some other stressor and shoots up his/her class.

So why hasn't it happened ? Someone going off the deep end wouldn't need prior permission to carry a firearm to school.

Just because a teacher hasn't lost it and gotten violent, doesn't mean one could not in the future.
For the record though, I agree with arming the teachers/principals/counselors.
