Although there has been a 49 percent drop in gun homicide since 1993, multiple states including Arizona, California, Oklahoma, Tennessee, South Dakota and Texas have taken their children’s protection into their own hands by introducing or passing legislation to arm teachers.

I don't agree on is that idea that my daughter should go to a school where her teacher feels the need to be armed.
Homeschool.
