Disclaimer, the is KG's idea. I thought it was interesting and warrants a discussion, but she doesn't really want to talk about it.
Poll to follow.
I figure it will cost around 7-8 billion a year( thats really the low end) to keep and maintain armed guards in K-12 public schools.
The risks that ive so far thought of are
the guard being disarmed and someone using his gun to shoot up the school
an accident with the guards gun
an over zealous guard shooting a student during an altercation
The pro being that armed guards will be in the school at all times and able to defend the students from the kind of attack we have seen.
The questions are
Good idea/bad idea and why
Should it be a ferdeal or state issue
Who should pay for it
