i agree lynn with your thought that this stuff goes on all the time except its overseas and and no one really gives a ____
i have been very outspoken in various venues about my opposition to war and violence and exploitation. so i agree 100 % with that.
my other thoughts is that if u are a teacher u need to be prepared and think about this stuff ahead of time . we have 4 kids 3 are teachers our daughter teaches 2 and 3 year olds. the conclusion i come to if i was a teacher i would buy a couple of very powerful lanterns. why ? to shine it in the face of the perp . automatically they have to look away and stop shooting at people. and i would buy some medium sized ball bearings. why ? to throw at the perp before i tackle them. they need to be distracted and i think those two techniques would work well but i am interested in hearing other ideas. and the idea of teachers carrying guns will not work. most people dont really want to shoot anyone else so i dont think that would work . maybe these ideas sound ludicrous to some but preparation and fore thought do help in an emergency situation. its better than standing there and being scared out of your mind . i am not going quietly into the night for anyone not my nature . and if u had 5 teachers who all agreed to this and would act in concert these incidents could be attenuated greatly which would be great. oh and i dont hate these people they are obviously insane and probably a lot of them are under some sort of mind control but i most certainly hate what is happening to the victims of these incidents. as a matter of fact i am going to start researching other ways to stop this sort of thing that dont involve guns. and i am ordering those ball bearings if for nothing else than myself .
