So would we give the administrators tommy guns to make things even?



Is this your vision of a great school where loads of learning takes place?

Having armed teachers would certainly change the tone of faculty meetings, though.

Make my day, punk.

Hat tip to Teacher Inspiration.

Smart teachers don't need tommy guns. They know that youth and inspiration are no match for old age and treachery.

I didn't say teachers-- I said administrators--since they would then be outnumbered by armed teachers. And of course I was being ironic. I have stated before how absolutely idiotic an idea I believe it is to arm teachers.

Although it would certainly change the tone of faculty meetings.

Armed teachers would certainly make staff meetings more interesting.

Hmmm . . . I am waiting for the day when legislators put cameras in the classrooms for security purposes. I reckon that guns are less expensive though.
