    Considering we’ve had more than one school shooting where the heavily trained and armed resource officers stood down while children were being slaughtered, I don’t think the sign on the right would make me feel any safer.

      Not to mention it’s just a matter of time before a teacher snaps or a kid steals their gun and shoots someone. Armed teachers can only ever do more harm than good.

      From an outside world perspective I just need to point out how totally ridiculous the pairing of the job title “Resource Officer” is with “gun”.
