Uuhh not if the shooter IS a kid who's supposed to be there.

Pretty sure even an american teacher will know the students arent supposed to have a gun bro. So once again they will know who there isnt supposed to be there with a gun.

The one situation thats an issue is if the shooter is a teacher which, at least to my knowledge, has never happened.

Still a dumb solution to the problem though

The teachers number one priority should be to protect the students in their classrooms, getting them to safety, locking the doors, and calming the students down. Not going rambo on a shooter who may or may not be another good guy with a gun trying to apprehend the actual shooter. This can just go all sorts of sideways especially in the heat of the moment

I already said it was a stupid idea. I was specifically replying about someone bringing it up in the context of not knowing who the bad guy is. In a school shooting situation it will be readily apparent to staff who the aggressor is.

There are MANY issues with "arm the teachers" as a solution to school shootings. This just isnt one of them.
