" Well, I believe we should be able to have a weapon to defend ourselves. As far as the teacher that wants to carry she should be able to however, wouldn't making public exactly who has a gun out them in danger? If a nut wants to go into a classroom and he/she knows the teacher has a gun wouldn't he just shoot the teacher first BEFORE there was time to react? I carried a gun with me at all times when I lived in Mesa. I used it for target practice and to scare to coyotes away from our business door. Every morning there were one or two around where I parked. "

" At the end of the article is states 'All the students are poor under federal poverty guidelines.' Does that mean its okay if any of them get hurt or killed? What was the purpose of writing that? What does it matter if the students are poor or rich? I believe the more important factor is the well being of the kids regardless of income-level. "

Kids need a good ole whuppin wrote on Oct 10, 2007 3:48 PM:

" Kids today have NO respect. When i was growing up (by the way im between 38-42) if i did something wrong i got the belt or a willow switch. Yes i did deserve it when i got it. It was not child abuse, it was a good ole behind the shed whuppin. I turned out just fine. Kids dont respect, teachers, police, parents ect. Time outs DO NOT WORK, it shows ith todays kids. Its sad that you can not give you child a spankin when needed, parents are more scared that DCFS will be call. Bring back respect spank the child when needed, and only when needed. "

" You can't blame the gun or gun manufacturer but you can sue them. and TO...... This IS(!!!) the land of the free. Free to the powers and the people in uniform. We Have Freedom of speech (But watch what you say). The Freedom to assemble (as long as the gov't has given you a permit) Freedom of religion (as long as everyone agrees to it.) Freedom to bear arms (if you are in the service controlled by the gov't). Land of the Free (sure to everyone but you and me.) IT IS TIME TO STOP WHINING AND STAND UP AND FIGHT. THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT BEN FRANKLIN, GEORGE WASHINGTON, THOMAS JEFFERSON, AND MANY OTHERS FOUGHT AGAINST! STAND UP AND FIGHT! TAKE UP ARMS AGAINST KING GEORGE AND THE REST OF THIS OPPRESIVE TOTALITARIAN FACIST STATE! "

" Here we go again lets arm the teachers so that they can take matters into their own hands. Lets place guns in plastoc cases with a sign in an emergency break plastic and shot. You people are idiots. No it is never the gun it is the person with the gun. Ever think that if we did not have so many guns on the street that we would not have a problem in the first place. And yes I am for strict gun control, so let the blasting begin, since that all you NRA nutcases look for. I love it then I can sit back and laugh at all the NRA dribble spoken by all the NRA sheeple. "

" I just talked to my brother who lives in a right to carry state. Just yesterday a man with a pistol walked in a store and tried to rob it. One of the customers, who had a permit to carry a concealed weapon, used it to stop the robbery. The assailant was kept at the store at gun point until the police arrived. I wonder why the media never reports any stories of guns saving lives, and property. It happens a heck of alot more than you could possibly imagine. Stories like this one are tragic but, you can't blame the gun or the gun manufacturer. "

" Democracy has become a hypocracy. The land of the free is a myth. We live in a land of "this is what you cannot do". We blame, yet take no responsibility. Everything done wrong requires an right answer. For any bad deed, a law must be passed. We have free will. Whether you believe in your God or not, we have free will. Killers will be killers. Saints will be saints. Those that want to do good, will do good. Those that want to do bad things to people, will do bad things. We have free will and all of us will die someday. "
