Well it really deterred today's shooter, whom got shot dead. As were others before him.
Yep but only after shooting people beforehand.....if a bullet in the head could await you before you made a name for yourself i reckon things may be viewed differently by these crackpots. |

Which goes back to the point that the possibility of being shot is not a deterrent. |

So what happens if a teacher, who has a really bad day,decides to take out a number of pupils who has pissed them off? |

There are pros and cons.
Either way, if people are even contemplating having armed teachers then that is one fucked up society.

that sentence was phrased really badly, sorry
the threat of being shot by an armed teacher/janitor/security guard isn't going to be much of a deterrent as many attackers commit suicide after carrying out the attack.

I was going to stay out of this but...teachers should be armed?!
Sweet Jesus. Where do you start with that?

You put it a little more eloquently than me. Do you ever sleep, by the way? What time is it in Bangkok right now...3am? |

Almost 4.30 am. I have clients in the UK and America so I've adapted to their working hours. It's also a perfect excuse for me to make the most of the serenity of everybody else sleeping and therefore not making a fucking racket. That's all going to change when the next sprog pops out though. |

Interestingly in China, which has strict gun laws, a similarly deranged man went on the rampage today in a school. Two differences. Because of the strict gun laws, the weapon of choice was a Knife. Because it was a knife, rather than a gun, nobody died. The fact remains that 22 schoolchildren were slashed up, but were the perpetrator readily armed, they wouldn't be with us still http://www.latimes.com/news/world/worldnow/la-man-slashes-22-children-near-china-school-20121214,0,6383015.story |

A great example of why Sippo's post is one of the most nonsensical things I've read.
If you wanted to get a gun now, do you think you could get hold of one? I can get some naughty things but a gun is definitely not one of them, I would barely know where to start.
