HARROLD, Texas - A tiny Texas school district may be the first in the nation to allow teachers and staff to pack guns for protection when classes begin later this month, a newspaper reported.
Harrold, Texas Trustees at the Harrold Independent School District approved a district policy change last October so employees can carry concealed firearms to deter and protect against school shootings, provided the gun-toting teachers follow certain requirements.

This situation could have turned out much better had the teacher been armed. One shot to the heart or head and he would have not only gotten his wish, but the lives of innocents would have been spared.

You don't think it would turn out better if nobody was armed, then?
