Uh...guns that are carried in a holster don't get set down. They stay in their holster. Or would you like to show us that people who carry a gun set it down and have it picked up and inappropriately used millions of times a year? Because, you know, in order for that argument to hold water the negative effect of 'guns being set down and forgot' would have to outweigh the positive effect of legal carriers using their guns in defense. Please tell me you don't really believe that to be true
What if you are in the library? Cafeteria? Walking between classes? Hallway? What if the shooter is in your room before a lockdown is done? What if he STARTS in your classroom?
You still think that a good guy/gal shooting back is worse than not. That is a shame. It really is.
You are completely right Warp. There really is NO WAY to be prepared for something like this. That is why I don't believe having a gun will help-you are more likely to do harm than good. There would most likely be a lot of students around and unless you are VERY close, you won't be able to tell who the shooter is.
Perhaps in colleges, it could be a good idea to let teachers and professors carry guns if they are legally able to. Not students, in my opinion, but teachers.
