Should teachers be allowed to carry guns at school?
Yes, schools should require at least one teacher or security guard to be armed
Many times, especially in larger schools, something can happen before a security guard can be there, and had teachers had been armed they could have responded. Also, many times security guards are in charge of a high school, middle school/junior high, and elementary and cannot monitor all schools at one time, leaving teachers responsible to react. Look at it from the perspective of a criminal, would you rather try and attack an area with one armed person, or with several armed people in different areas of the building? What if the security guard was injured or killed? Who will defend the school then?
