So, I see the aftermath has drawn the lines between the left demanding new gun control laws, and the right saying "hogwash" and saying we need armed guards in schools.
So, will the GOP be willing to PAY for that, through more spending and taxing?
The GOP isn't asking for more cops in schools. what they are proposing is to allow teachers to get concealed carry permits and go to school armed. they might get a bonus for volunteering - something like $5000/yr.
You dont wanna trust THAT kind of job to a $10 an hour security guard carrying an old wheel gun revolver do ya?
No, of course not, our kids are worth more than that. They need a full time, fully trained certitfied police officer with tactical training, and the proper weapons to defend that school.
No they don't. You're just doing what you can to make the proposal as unpalatable as possible.
