Should teachers be armed in schools?
Teachers carrying guns in school – would it make classrooms safer?
In one school district in Texas – teachers are allowed to carry guns to class every day.
That’s according to a report from NewsChannel 6 in Wichita Falls, Texas.
District leaders call this the guardian rule. The superintendent says he stands behind this rule.
Superintendent David Thweatt thinks teachers, armed with a gun, will prevent a school shooting. So they decided to adopt the “Guardian Plan” back in 2007.
It has a few components – but essentially all teachers with a concealed handgun license – are allowed to carry a gun to school with them.
What do you think about this policy?
