8. I carried weapons as a Soldier for over 21 years.

As a former High School History teacher I never had or would carry a weapon to school. I taught in a title one school with poor kids who heard gunfire from their apartments most nights, but never in our schools. I am very comfortable around firearms but would never carry one in the classroom. I can see a distracted teacher leaving a weapon on the copy machine or dropping their pistol in the toilet or sitting down in the teacher's lounge and absent mindedly leaving their weapon in the breakroom.....GUNS IN SCHOOL NOT GOOD! Only SROs (School Resource Officers cops or sheriff deputy) should be allowed to carry weapons on campus.
