Sorry, Christina, I can't agree with you on this one. Having a gun in a classroom full of students is a very scary thought. Yes, I know the argument would be to keep these locked up, but accidents happen, and students cannot always be trusted.
I would never allow my children to go to a school that allowed teachers to have guns in the classroom. My children attend public schools that have full-time police officers on campus. These are trained professionals. This makes me feel comfort, not the idea that a well-meaning teacher might react incorrectly and cause irreversible consequences.
