I am not anti-gun. But I am also not "a gun is the solution to every problem".
I have seen people at the shooting range. Would NOT want them armed in a school with the desire to use it. And those are the people who PRACTICE. In this case, a crazy did not come into the school. He was already there. (student). And crazy, by default, means "not reasoning normally". I don't think a gun would have done much IN THIS CASE. Heck, a CHAIR could have ended it faster. But there was too much panic, and no one is trained for handling sudden unexpected violence. Too bad there weren't more veterans as teachers in the immediate area. They (in my opinion) are probably more likely to react quickly and correctly when the normal rules are suddenly lost. Plus, it is good employment for veterans.
