Trump castigated him in his rambling, incoherent, totally insane speech today. The guy has resigned. I wouldn’t be surprised if he tops himself. Blame a poor count who didn’t have what it takes to face down an assault rifle. It’s eaay to berate him and we would all like to believe we would have gone in there. Maybe most of us would, but, some people, through no fault of their own, don’t have that in them.
Everybody isn’t brave in that way. He probably thought he was until it happened. I feel sorry for him. I hope he gets help. The poor **** is going to need it.
It wasn’t his fault that prick did what he did. To put blame on him deflects from the real reason it happens.
Or maybe the guy with the assault rifle who has the element of surprise on his side kills the teacher then takes the gun and uses it to shoot more kids...So trump says an armed teacher would “have shot the hell out of the gunman”. Ok let’s say he’s does, but how many kids have still been shot before this? This doesn’t stop kids getting shot. It just has a chance of reducing the body count.
And it won’t act as a deterrent as nearly all shooters go in Knowing full well they have a very good chance of not coming out alive.
Nothing is going to change anytime soon, I just hope the watershed moment has been reached with these kids and they keep their momentum into adulthood so they will have the power to make policy change a valuable item on the election agenda.
I thought Of that also ;)Or maybe the guy with the assault rifle who has the element of surprise on his side kills the teacher then takes the gun and uses it to shoot more kids...
But good ol' Cadet Bonespurs is an expert on live shooter situations and he's gonna tell everybody what to do.
Nope. The watershed moment should have happened years ago, long before Trump came in. No surprise that he's being castigated here, when the fact is that long before he was on the scene America had nutters shooting up schools, and long after he's gone it'll happen.So trump says an armed teacher would “have shot the hell out of the gunman”.

There are so many bad possibilities that there’s no universe where this is a good idea.Someone on Twitter pointed out you would not want to be the teacher holding a gun when the Swat team arrived.
