One big problem I'm seeing with arming teachers is what would determine when it's ok for the teacher to even use the gun. Earlier in the thread someone was saying that even if there's a rampaging student and a teacher were to shoot him, the shit would hit the fan. And it undoubtedly would-there would be lawsuits, probably an arrest, and all sorts of chaos. Simply because teachers aren't given the same leway in dealing with criminal students. In most cases, it's even considered assault if a teacher restrains fighting students.
Does anyone have any idea how arming teachers would actually be implemented? What kind of standards would be set up for allowing teachers to use the firearms?
