    How long until a pissed, stressed teacher threatens or even shoots a kid?

    Will they give guns to all the teachers, good and bad alike? Then I guess we will find out if the good teachers with guns can stop the bad teachers with guns.

    Tennessee is an idiot fest. Next we will have reports of teachers gunning down kids that piss them off.

    Tennessee has been working overtime to lose my respect in the last year. Everything they’ve done has been terrible.

    I used to live in Tennessee. I’m not disparaging Tennesseans. I’m disparaging the people you elected. I know you probably didn’t have much say in the matter (gerrymandering).

    Make them wear helmets and camo too lol! Stay frosty, teachers

    Also no, you can’t borrow a dollar with your McDonald’s-salary-havin-ass. Find some bootstraps to do something with.

    Why would a teacher who makes shit money want to take one the liability and responsibility of carrying a gun around school? It’s either gonna be crazy teachers who volunteer for the job, or it’ll be like the resource officers during school shootings who run away at the first sign of trouble

    In the late 80s, I lived in Bohemia, NY, in some shitty town on Long Island. I was the only asian student in the town. A teacher named Mrs. Thompson hit me multiple times while calling me racial slurs and while the vice principal watched.

    Let’s not really solve one problem with a whole new set of problems.

    And teachers will have to purchase their own forearm and firearm training. Though knowing Tennessee, they wouldn’t require any training whatsoever anyways because that state is full of braindead morons.
