Sorry to hijack your thread. I was under the impression that its topic included the value of your own gun control plan; I didn’t realize that the three paragraphs you spent detailing it and six paragraphs you spent extolling its virtues were simply window-dressing. I will bow out.
You’re welcome to stay g8rguy. If you can tone down the gratuitous sarcasm and snideness.

Trump is not suggest that ALL teachers should be armed.
FYI, poisoning the well doesn’t encourage participation. Should teachers be allowed to arm themselves, if they believe they have a need to be armed? I say yes. I would not hand weapons to people who have no idea which end makes the loud bang. Should schools be gun-free zones? I say no. Mass murdering criminals deliberately chose soft targets, such as gun-free zones.
Thanks, honestly, but I think perhaps you misunderstand the reason for me bowing out. First, there’s a long and active thread on basically the same topic right around the corner already. More importantly, I believe the president’s idea to be undeserving of serious consideration, and on that topic I am not terribly interested in being convinced (i.e. I’ve given it due thought and rejected it).
