as far as thinkn ur solution to b unrealistic seph, all it takes is 1 incident and then people will cry outrage over why we are arming teachers. the trouble with having it in a lockbox is this: it is really only effective if u know an attack is coming. if a shooter busts in suddenly, the teachers not gnna have time to get the key, open the box, take out the gun & use it. suppose it happens in a cafeteria or playground, unless the teachers take their guns with them, they cant do a thing. if they do take their guns with them while supervising, then theres the threat a student could get their hands on it. this is a real threat too, especially for middle school & up especially in inner city schools where its common to have various gang members present.

as far as the teachers snapping & using it on the kids themselves, u can test them all u want but the fact of the matter is, those types of things are usually very sudden and come with almost no warning. all it takes is the right provocation - like say being fired or falling under any number of great psychological stress which in this economy is pretty easy - and then we have a very dangerous situation on our hands. if iv realised this then theres quite a few others who have too.

yes it may help avert some dangers but it also carries new dangers with it and in certain places that new danger is greater & more real. i call it unrealistic because i already know that if this was put up to vote state by state, ud have it almost completely shot down in all the states on the east coast south to Tennessee and west to Minnesota, and in the west coast too. even in the remaining states itd b a county by county issue and getting a majority yes vote will become quite a challenge. in the end i think it really only has a chance at passing in a handful of states anc thats not a national solution, hence unrealistic.

in the end we all want the same thing, we just have different ways of getting it.
