Should Teachers have guns

No. Emphatically no! (hey, just my opinion) and I'll tell you why. 

Our teachers have spent years being educated, going to college, spending thousands of dollars to educate themselves, in order to educate our children, and now some want to arm them. In fact, Trump has stated he will give a bonus to those who go and train and get certified to carry. Seriously? You really want to risk putting our children in a class room with an armed teacher? 

What happens when that teacher can't pay his mortgage, and is loosing his home, his wife cheats, and he goes ballistic. ON OUR KIDS. Don't say it can't happen. It can. It has in fact happened in other professions. Remember the postal workers in the 90's? 

What happens when the young co-ed teacher becomes afraid of the class room bully? She's there alone with him before school. She shoots him? Yes, it could happen. Teacher are not there to arm themselves. We pay them to educate our kids. That is what they are trained to do, and paid to do. Kids need to feel safe in school. It should be their home away from home. 

Teachers with guns is not going to make them feel safe. They will feel threatened by anything from the outside. Our teachers will be on high alert, constantly. This will not make the atmosphere in school conducive to learning. Our kids are to young to comprehend the ramifications of an armed teacher. C'mon people,  is this what we want our kids to see? You have to remember, this is not just in high schools. It's in our grade schools too. Sandyhook. 

Anyone around who would remember May 18th 1927. The Bath School Massacre. 38 children were killed. (Bath Michigan) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bath_School_disaster 
NOT BY A GUN. By a bomb. This is not just about guns, and who should have them and who should not. We need resources for our mental health programs. NOT armed teachers. Teachers are already underpaid and over worked. They always have been, I don't believe we should have the added stress of a cross trained teacher. 

Should it be their choice? That I could go for, but to make it mandatory is wrong. Our Teachers should be what they already are. Educators. Everyone that I have spoken with since the Parkland shooting is either saying arm the teachers, or ban the weapons, or both. Why has NO ONE said, what are we doing about the mental health of our families? I'll tell you why. Because it's politics, and it shouldn't be. These are our kids. I'll say it again. Wake up America. We are letting down the next voting generation by our in action to do anything about mental health. According to the CDC 4,400 children a year commit suicide. 

Why is everyone stuck on the gun issue?
