To be willing and able to stop a school shooter will likely require extensive training, practice, and mindset that the teachers should not be expected to do and have. Also, the idea of throwing them a little extra money to do this task is insulting. Frankly, if my grandchildren are in danger of being shot in school, I want well paid and trained mercenaries who will not have any moral issues with shooting anyone with a gun, including a twelve year old. Kind of on the lines of the Secret Service or FBI, when they protect our politicians. What we need are federally funded, trained and armed security. And, the money should not go through the local politicians and school board. Those monkeys have their fingers in enough pockets now. Just my two cents.
