Gov. Henry McMaster and President Donald Trump have voiced support for arming teachers, but the chairwoman of a state House panel that is considering such a bill says she does not believe that is to come. Rep. Rita Allison, a Spartanburg County Republican and chairwoman of the House Education and Public Works Committee, said she believes House lawmakers are more interested in placing an officer in every school and securing front entrances to increase safety and thwart school shootings. |

They had an armed cop at the Parkland school. That worked out so well.
As long as schools are soft targets, these shootings will continue.
The only way to stop them is to remove the prohibitions against lawful concealed carry in schools and everywhere else. |

I should add that there was also a cop at Columbine that turned turtle. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
I do believe that where there is a choice only between cowardice and violence, I would advise violence. Thus when my eldest son asked me what he should have done had he been present when I was almost fatally assaulted in 1908 [by an Indian extremist opposed to Gandhi's agreement with Smuts], whether he should have run away and seen me killed or whether he should have used his physical force which he could and wanted to use, and defend me, I told him it was his duty to defend me even by using violence. Hence it was that I took part in the Boer War, the so-called Zulu Rebellion and [World War I]. Hence also do I advocate training in arms for those who believe in the method of violence. I would rather have India resort to arms in order to defend her honor than that she should in a cowardly manner become or remain a helpless witness to her own dishonor. — Mohandas K. Gandhi, Young India, August 11, 1920 from Fischer, Louis ed.,The Essential Gandhi, 1962 |
