Florida County Gets Proactive on Gun Violence in Schools

Lake County school board member wants teachers to carry guns

quote:

Mathias said he is a gun owner and he believes the proposal is the most logical tactic to keep students safe. “If you try to come on our campus and try to hurt one of our students, there’s a good possibility you will leave in a body bag. That would be a deterrent for anyone in Lake County,” he said.

Gun Shy read the proposal document in its entirety. Gun Shy agrees, that the random school shooter is a problem, but as Mr Matthias mentions in his document, the terrorists past threats of attacking schools are the bigger problem.

Maybe other counties will get on board with this as well.  Who knows? There might even be some volunteer work in Gun Shy's future to help keep America's children safe, because after all, they are our most precious resource, and should be viewed as everyone's kids by all Americans.

UPDATE:

It appears that other states are becoming proactive as well, instead of looking to the gaggle of gun control numb nuts in washington.
