Why the Left Opposes Arming Teachers

by Dennis Prager for TownHall

Why does the left oppose allowing a small number of highly trained teachers and other adults who work at schools to arm themselves? When asked, their response is consistent: “It’s a crazy idea.” And “We need fewer guns, not more guns.”
A New York Times editorial offered the following argument against having any armed teachers:
“Nationwide statistics on police shooting accuracy are not to be found. But if New York is typical, analyses show that its officers hit their targets only one-third of the time. And during gunfights, when the adrenaline is really pumping, that accuracy can drop to as low as 13 percent.”
But if that is an argument against armed teachers, why isn’t it an argument against armed police?
And that argument was Aristotelian compared to this one from a Los Angeles Times editorial:
“If a pistol-strapping chemistry teacher had grabbed her .45 and unloaded on today’s gunman after he killed, what, one student? Three? Five? That would be good news?” 
Of course, no murder is “good news.” But to most of us, one or three or five as compared with 17  murdered is good news. Only those who think it isn’t good news think permitting some teachers and other school staff to be armed is a bad idea.
Beyond such arguments, the left rarely, if ever, explains why allowing some teachers and other adults in a school to be armed is a crazy idea. They merely assert it as a self-evident truth. But, of course, it's not a self-evident truth. On the contrary, having some adults who work at schools be trained in the responsible use of guns makes so much sense that the left's blanket opposition seems puzzling. It shouldn't be. On the question of taking up arms against evil, the left is very consistent. - Keep Reading

Democrats Starting to Stress Out That Their Big Anti-Gun Shit Show Could Backfire


DT -Today is National Pancake day. There will never be a “National Firearms Day” but it matters little because ever since the Democrats and their winged monkeys in the media decided to exploit the Parkland, FL school shooting to promote their Draconian gun control agenda, guns have been selling like hotcakes! Meanwhile, some Democrats are starting to stress out that the big anti-gun push could backfire and galvanize conservatives by giving them a reason to get out and vote this November. 

The Hill Reports:
"The party is galvanized behind the idea that Congress should take action on gun control, but faces warnings from some Democrats that reaching too far could drive away voters in the swing districts they’ll need to retake the Speaker’s gavel. Shedding caution, this growing chorus of Democrats is calling for extensive reforms, including a ban on military-style weapons. A number of rank-and-file lawmakers view this month’s shooting at a Parkland, Fla., high school as a potential tipping point in the years-long congressional stalemate over new gun restrictions. Shedding caution, this growing chorus of Democrats is calling for extensive reforms, including a ban on military-style weapons. Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) signed onto the ban as an original co-sponsor — a rare move for the minority leader prone to avoiding official endorsements of specific bills."
"Still it comes as other Democrats warn that embracing aggressive new gun restrictions carries risks, particularly in conservative-leaning districts where gun rights are sacrosanct." 
"It’s one of those fundamental issues that riles up American politics — it’s up there with abortion and immigration — and they need to be very careful,” said a former Democratic leadership aide. It’s easier to demagogue on this than to do something about it and you risk overreaching."
Up until now the left has had all of the energy and momentum but continued failure of party leaders to find a positive message outside of peddling anti-Russia paranoia, race-baiting, weaponizing the #MeToo movement and now trotting out the angry little Boss Hogg as their sock puppet could blow up in their faces if the sleeping giant of conservative voters is shaken from their slumber."

Yeah, Keep Talkin' Little Man.......


Gun-grabbing advocate/media darling David Hogg appeared on MSNBC’s Morning with Squinty and Meat Puppet this morning accusing elected officials of attempting the blame the Florida school shooting on “bureaucracy.” He told the dynamic duo that Gov. Rick Scott should be “held accountable” for the failure of three sheriff’s deputies to confront the gunman.
“They should have been regulating them. I’m not going to allow them to pressure these people because at the end of the day it’s their fault. These elected officials are the boss of these sheriff personnel and just like the president is the boss of the FBI, Governor Rick Scott is essentially the boss of Scott Israel, the sheriff, and as such he should be held accountable. He can’t just blame this on the bureaucracy and expect to get re-elected.”
Sorry, but David Hogg is little more but an ambitious opportunist and a media tool. He has already reached a Gutierrez and Cuomo level of a slimy, duplicitous public persona. I think he craves the attention. Maybe compensating for his sexuality.

Why blame the Governor, yet support Sheriff Israel, whose deflecting blame on everyone else, except himself on how he's handled the situation both before and after the shooting. Newsflash little man: the governor is not the boss of the sheriff. He's an elected official under duty to the those he represents and the state and US constitutions. He can be temporally suspended, but little else can be done without an investigation.

Your democrat talking points have become obvious.  You may now exit stage left.  

This kid has said his argument isn't political but he assigns blame on politicians based on the 'R' after their name. And talk about grabbing your 15 minutes ........Friday he was saying he wont go back to a school until the sheriff is fired.  Saturday: "The Sheriff cannot be held responsible for the actions of his deputies." Sunday: "The Governor must be held responsible for the actions of the deputies."
