At least one staffer at the Nashville Christian school where six people were gunned down this week is usually armed for pupils’ security, according to a teacher who called 911 begging for help.
“We do have a school person — or two, I’m not sure — who would be packing, whose job it is for security,” one woman told a dispatcher while cowering under a desk during Monday’s rampage at the Covenant School.
“We don’t have security guards, but we have a staff.”
The 911 call — one of about two dozen made during the terrifying 14-minute bloodbath — was the first suggestion that staff at the Christian school may have been armed.
It challenges pro-gun activists who claim allowing teachers to carry is an easy recipe to end such violence.
“You know, there’s never been a school shooting in a school that allows teachers to carry,” Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) claimed in a war of words on the House floor Wednesday about the Nashville carnage.
