There won't be a "fight." People like that only pick defenseless victims. They don't want what a worthy opponent will bring to bare.

I know what you are dealing with to a degree. I taught DARE many moons ago for about 3 years. There were parents who wanted me to leave my service weapon in the car. :l :l
Heard the exact same thing as an SRO, had a teacher suggest it should be unloaded....to avoid "accidents". Schools en masse will not buck the parents perceived issues with weapons in the building.

Joe, School Shootings, and Ice Cream...

Biden Jokes About Ice Cream When Addressing School Shooting
OAN Roy Francis
8:43 AM – Tuesday, March 28, 2023

President Joe Biden faced criticism yesterday for his remarks after the Nashville school shooting, in which he joked that he only made his appearance because there was going to be ice cream.

In his first appearance after the Nashville school shooting, Biden talked about his favorite ice cream after introducing himself as “Dr. Jill Biden’s husband.”

“My name is Joe Biden. I’m Dr. Jill Biden’s husband,” Biden said from the White House’s East Room. “I eat Jeni’s ice cream — chocolate chip. I came down because I heard there was chocolate chip ice cream.”
“By the way, I have a whole refrigerator full upstairs,” Biden told the crowd. “You think I’m kidding? I’m not.”
The president later called the shooting “sick” and “heartbreaking.” He said that he hopes this tragedy will motivate Congress to pass a ban similar to the assault weapons ban he helped pass in 1994. The 1994 law had enacted a 10-year ban “on the manufacture, transfer or possession of semiautomatic assault weapons and large capacity ammunition feeding devices.”

The law expired in 2004.

After addressing the shooting, and calling on Congress to pass a ban on assault weapons, the president went back to talking about ice cream, complimenting Jeni’s Splendid Ice Cream.

“The businesses represented in this room stretch across industries, from restaurants to architectural firms to hardware stores, plus Jeni’s Splendid Ice Cream. And by the way,” he said. “By the way, it is splendid.”

“If I were allowed to take you upstairs, you got a whole freezer full of Jeni’s chocolate chip ice cream,” Biden went on. “You know it’s pretty dull when you’ve been in public life as long as I have and you’re known for two things: chocolate chip ice cream and Ray-Bans sunglasses, but what the hell.”
The president was criticized for his inappropriate reaction, and playful tone when addressing the tragedy that unfolded earlier in Nashville.

“To say that he misunderstood the moment would be an understatement,” former New Jersey Governor Chris Christie told Fox News. “You know, the president is watching, you’d hope before he comes down there, the awful scenes from the shooting and the reactions of family members and friends of people in that school. And to be coming down, joking about the fact that he’s Jill Biden’s husband and looking for chocolate chip ice cream is hardly the way to start it. There’s no way to talk about something like this except to say that for all of us who are parents, what we dread every day is the news about the health and life of our children. And so there’s no room to joke in that circumstance at all. And certainly not from the President of the United States.”
Christie also criticized Biden for “playing politics.” He said that it was “the second-worst thing to do” for the president to do in a situation where parents and students across the country are still dealing with the impact of the tragedy.

The shooting, which took place at The Covenant School in Nashville, Tennessee, had left three students, and three adults dead. The shooter was also shot and killed by law enforcement who responded to the scene.

I'm not against it....but it needs to be thought out. Not every teacher wants, nor should they be allowed, to have a gun. But nearly every school has prior military people on their staff. Start with those folks to see who is WILLING and capable. Some teachers likely have CCW licenses and have had some training....there's another group to jump in.

If you think that's a bad idea.....then you need to re-think bad ideas. As textbook good as the Police response was, it was too late for 6 people. A couple guns inside when it starts, at the very least, slows chit-for-brains down until the calvary arrives. Time is the whole deal.
I’ve recommended that State department with trained men, hold a federal title and are posted at schools after they move on from overseas or other contract work. With the downturn in the military deployments, there’s a possible bridge option there as well, have to be high level field training guys and evals constant. Offer Federal pay, benefits; and would need 2-3 in total per school. State funding can back as well. There’s enough money to throw around this idea, finding enough personnel may create a market.

It would stop 90%+ of these ideas from ever coming to fruition.
Someone run those numbers on cost.

Continue their training and eval cycles with incentives to transition back to a deployable status if they want. Offer a
10-year retirement incentive, similar to state judges and higher offices. These are the types that have 10-20+ years of field experience and can work in these roles. Those types know how to respond; how to treat traumas, and can be planted into any arena with a mission focus.

There are certainly many options for bringing more security to schools....and armed, willing, and capable people inside the schools is not complicated. I don't know if I want it ran by the Federal Govt....but it's not a deal breaker for me.

Lol.
Good job internet tough guy. You should be in charge of everything and the world’s problems would be solved. You just keep solving problems from behind your….keyboard.
I bet you most of them would. I know there would be none of this ludicrousness. Health disclaimer: Don`t look directly at the pictures.

Do you know what makes an armed professional? Training and practice. Two weeks of summer training and one day per month of range and tactics gives teachers more training than most departments give their officers.

This is not forking brain surgery.....this is break glass when needed. And yep, there will be an accident or something stupid happen at some point. So don't worry, people like you won't lose your opportunity to whine and bi@tch and point fingers from behind a keyboard, while you do nothing and they do all the lifting.

People like you need to stay out of thinking about it....that's how we got here.
