    Heres some coles notes to help the left keep track of all the protest and hashtag campaigns they are currently juggling.

    Didnt release his taxes

    Racist

    Misogynist

    Liar

    Mentally unstable

    Incompetent

    Treasonous

    Sexual predator

    White supremacist

    Anti environment

    Anti american

    Anti immigration

    Pro russian

    Anti fbi

    Pro school shooting

    Here is some trendy hashtags you can bring up during dinner which your wife has lovingly ordered online because, (I assume), she doesnt have much time left for cooking.

    #recount

    #notmypresident

    #collusion

    #adaywithoutwomen

    #impeach

    #handsoffmypussy

    Colton has an interesting idea, using veterans as guards. But that doesnt fit the dem playbook. CNN isint even trying to hide their bias anymore.

    Of all the options being talked about, this is probably the worst. Many teachers are already underpaid & overworked. Now you want them to be responsible for carrying a gun in their classroom knowing they have the responsibility of killing a shooter should the situation arise. That's insane & if it became mandatory, we would see a mass exodus of good teachers.

    It seems to me that teachers are embracing the thought of protecting the children they are responsible for on a daily basis. Very empowering knowing you can fight back rather than taking a knee before  you take a  bullet after your last breath on Earth.

    Who pays for the training?   Schools are already strapped as it is

    Which teachers get the training?  Would it be publically announced to which teacher has the gun and which do not?  

    What about sick days?  Is the substitute teacher also going to be trained?  Does the weapon stay in the classroom or is the teacher armed full time at school events?

    I'd rather lock the grieving mothers in a room with members of the FBI, the local police department and the coward they had stealing $75K from the school as a security guard. (correct me if I'm wrong but it is their job to protect people from maniacs)? 

     What did Dana Loesch ever do to anyone? Does she do her job?

    Russia interferes in every election. You didn’t care until you were told to care. Statues stood for over 100 years. You didn’t care until you were told to care. People are killed daily by guns in cities like Chicago. You didnt care about gun violence until you were told to care.

    The press has spent 8 days targeting the NRA for an epic law enforcement failure.

    This gun control debate has gotten so unhinged it’s made Trump look like the calm, reasoned one.

    CNN: How dare you say these kids are lying.

    If her job is to pander to whatever crowd she is speaking to, then Yes, she does her job.

    So you're admitting that he is usually erratic and unreasonable?

    Trump hits 50% on Rasmussen. I guess getting stuff done is popular after all.

    The following is a bombshell headline regarding collusion in Broward County between school officials and local authorities. Basically colluding to lower arrests in order to receive monies. Go figure! Broward County is one of the most liberal counties in the US. The article can be found at infowars.com and the article is brilliantly written by Dan Lyman. Another fine example of how 'Liberalism is a Mental Disorder'.

    Lawrence MSNBC: A bullet fired from an AR-15 travels 3x faster than one from a handgun. 

    And yet the president and the NRA think giving teachers guns will stop a school shooter

    Ben Shapiro: Just to get this straight, your argument is that because a rifle has higher muzzle velocity than a handgun, nobody with a handgun can stop someone with a rifle in close proximity?

    POTUS clearly stated @ CPAC today...Find car/conceal holder who LOVES,  knows and protects students..maybe even an  internal P.O. office.. but NOT a Teacher..that isn't what they signed up for...


    Athletic coach, custodian, hall monitor, retired military, anyone ..even  office ladies....Love DJT idea of BONUS pay for Trained /Licensed  individual...Gotta really hope that each campus  can Find  ONE courageous "armed" .....person that can SAFELY protect EVERYONE.....multiple certified individuals a "must"..

    Like DJT stated..make it a "hard target"....He's right...But it starts inside the school knowing, loving and nurturing those students despite their great different "backgrounds"..Create and cultivate a positive EDUCATIONAL environment  AND AMAZINGLY...most Schools do........BUT, .It's absolutely UNREAL how messed up some PARENTS lives  nowadays are.... unfortunately, it often teaches their kids similar  poor behavior...


    Add in technology and the lack of kids going outside and playing....the social  scene is sooooo different nowadays...All possible socialists sheep with their fear of living for nothing which can strangle one's  will........Less we forget they all probably have THS to boot....

    Carry on....literally...

    The liberal answer to protecting the safety of  children in a school is a sign that states this school is a gun free zone. Embarrassing to be a Lefty. By the same token their money in a bank during business hours  is protected by an armed guard. Go figure.

    Where does the bonus pay come from?  

    Listen to the ex-Boston police chief on FBN earlier...   "Law enforcement officers who have years of experience and take multiple firearms test each year have accidents still happen.   Look in any PD locker and you will see bullet holes in the walls"


    What happens a 1st grader brings a toy gun to school?  Does the teacher/guard with the gun automatically supposed to shoot?  


    How can one person guard an entire campus of multiple buildings/floors?   

    And if a kid wants to shoot people but is worried about the guard/teacher with the gun, why wouldn't he just wait to get on the bus to cause his carnage?   The issue of a pissed off kid with a list of people to kill and the means to do it does not get solved by any of this



    It's an EXTREMELY flawed idea.
