200+ MILLION lives were violently snuffed out in the last century alone by governments that had recently reascended the public's' right to bear arms. Too many americans (All of the left, in fact) believe that a major genocide can't happen here but at the same time they scream bloody murder at Trump "inciting a hostile coup" (without any guns) on January 6th. So hypocritical...
The bottom line is that we need our guns to stop mass genocides or any one of a dozen other horrible outcomes from happening to us one day. Every country's citizens do. Democide grows everywhere. Sweden could have a violent dictator take over tomorrow, and only an armed populace would have a chance of deposing him. That's just the world we live in.
Where this policy runs into problems, however, is when we make all these gun-free zones filled with victims that can't defend themselves from people who pay no attention to laws. That's just retard-level planning than any schoolkid should be able to poke holes in.
So the options at this point are either to get armed guards into the schools, or arm the teachers. I know the latter will meet too much resistance so I'm all for a community-run security firm with armed-to-the-teeth guards at all entrances.
That is, assuming that schools should even exist anymore. The best solution would be, where the technology is available, to fully defund and dismantle all school systems and replace them with home schooling via internet classes. I had high hopes for the coronavirus lockdowns to help us to transition to that reality... Oh well.
