Much legislation and school security trends have started since an angry man stormed inside of an elementary school and murdered dozens of children and adults last month. More recently, a student who was known for being bullied, shot and wounded 2 students, at Taft Union HS in California, before being calmed down by adults. After a 5-0 vote, Montpelier ExemptedVillage School Board approved an initiative which allows custodians to carry guns in K-12 schools. This measure is the first in Ohio Schools.
Both sides of this issue has found reasons to allow staff to carry guns. The NRA approves this extreme measure as a defense to ideas to more gun control laws. Where as those who support gun control are the same politicians who see armed security as a way to add jobs to the economy.
Another side of this issue that is often overlooked is eliminating the bullying and outcasting of these students who feel compelled to get revenge. Although a small amount of kids who are bullied actually murder masses of students to get back at them, one can emphasize with a student who was treated in a certain way. For instance in one city, HS football players have continue to get away with Rape and until recently, after occupy and social media got involved, police refuse to charge the teenage boys. If one of the girls would have taken the law into her own hand, would we hear the entire side of her story?
