The logic isn't that bad to arm school personnel...if we were a law enforcement unit.
If you arm me, you better make me go to the range at least once a month if not more often. If I ever need my gun, I would need to be proficient enough to be able to use it while under pressure. If not... I might end up shooting a student.
But... I have a fellow teacher I know might shoot me if I mess up her planning period. So don't give her a gun!
Don't give my coworker a gun.
