Could Sandy Hook have been prevented if students were allowed to bring their guns to school?

At the very least the teachers should be armed.

    Don't be ridiculous ... teachers go crazy too ... schools are very stressful environments ... as for kids with guns ... no way ... !

    I'm guessing you mean the Connecticut massacre by a man from Sandy Hook..

    Anyway - I don't think he would have been stopped if those kindergarten students were armed

    I don't know. Obviously the students shouldn't have since they're only 5-10 years old, but I think that there should have been more security; or even just one officer who was on school grounds.

    I'm not saying that it's anyone's fault though, since, who in their right mind would think about something THIS tragic happening?

    Yeah, it really is inspiring, the thought of four and five year olds carrying guns.

    So they can, what, shoot themselves in the crossfire, to to make it harder for the police to identify the criminal?

    You're so right, we need five-year-olds with Glocks!

    You're an idiot.
