Good decision, but carrying in a school shouldn't be taken lightly, and should be regulated. Now the teachers in TX just don't have to hide their guns!
Why not just improve the police force or make gun control stricter on people with psycological disorders rather than letting teachers carry firearms?
Do both of those, but making gun control stricter on people with psychological disorders in school is harder because 1) you have to deal with the fact that a parent may own the gun, and the kid has the disorder and 2) the kid may not have been diagnosed with the disorder yet. And improving the police force isn't going to have instantaneous results in the middle of a school shooting, unless you have a lot of cops in each school (which is a fiscal nightmare).
I figured you would say that but in the end can we really afford to have guns everywhere. What if one of the students in a criminally active school steals the gun from the teacher? There are lots of danger situations but I can already predict your response...
The teacher keeps it in a holster, and the school enforces that rule. The gun isn't to leave the holster at the teacher's side, ankle, shoulder (as long as it's jacket covered), unless the gun is being drawn.
