the same way I see the patriot act. None of these armed teacher ideas individually are infringements, but what it does is set the stage for yet more restriction ideas, and greater control of general public under the guise of safety.
I see it as another step on the road to hell paved with good intentions.

Personally, lets say we do arm teachers, and lets say the next mass shooting, the teacher, writing on a math board, is shot anyway, along with his or her students without time to react, setting the stage for more and greater invasions of liberty and privacy in the name of defense of the children, until ultimately, we have maximum security prisons for schools, and once we do that, what public area do we armor next?

What personal freedom do we remove to make sure these public areas are not at risk? You see when im going?

These are steps towards a police state as an ultimate consequence

2ndly, I just don't find the idea realistically workable. If more people are harmed by their self defense guns in the home statistically than those that use them on intruders, how can we say the introducing large numbers of guns into schools would not result in a greater number of deaths by accident than mass shootings prevented?
