    This officer was following standard protocol as established by our elected leaders.

    1. Take cover.

    2. Assess the situation.

    3. Provide thoughts and prayers to the victims.

    The teachers should be trained with at least a 3rd gen holster. Kids would have virtually no chance at taking a gun out of a good holster. 99.9% of kids arent that psycho either. A good holster and training would make it nearly impossible. How many kids do you see taking a cops holstered gun?

    if your gun is holstered, you're probably not trying to deal with a shooter in school...same with a cop....you knock a guard out...you can take his weapon holstered or not.....my point...cops lose their guns from time to time...a holstered gun is not happening when somebody is shooting kids. You'd have multiple weapons and ammo in classrooms....toilets...gyms...break rooms...basketball games...etc....not sold that it's bringing safety to the masses....

    Fake news
    I've heard on this forum it's impossible to disarm someone with a knife.
    That their just as dangerous as a AR, if not more dangerous.

    So you're saying the officer didn't provide thoughts and prayers?

    Really?

    I’ve heard cucks say that it’s super easy to get a knife from someone without getting stabbed.

    If we're going to arm people in schools, I think the better idea would be to have police on campus.
    Not that they're perfect in any way (rash decisions), but I'd much rather trust a police in that situation than a teacher who is already stressed enough.

    It's odd how the answer to the issue of ease of gun access/wrong people getting guns/making things unsafe in schools, seems to be just throw more guns at it. I am willing to bet that the vast majority of teachers are against the idea of teachers being the ones who are armed. ​

    I haven't....nothin' easy about it...I recommend a jacket or towel held in both hands...sort of like dealing with a rabid dog...minimize your chance for injury and give yourself protection...you don't grab a knife with your bare hands if you have a choice...training...a little knowledge can go along way unless you pretend you're a hand to hand combat expert facing another hand to hand combat expert....wisdom comes from experience...snark away all you want

    This is why the dads/grandpappys should roam the halls to protect their kid/grandchild which can do no wrong.

    Nah, super easy.

    Ankle stomps will instantly disarm a knife wielder.

    River, don't question Nate.
    He'd get around your jacket/towel, and stab all 30 kids in class + you in the matter of seconds.
    He's that good.

    Oh, so I’ll just use my body parts that aren’t comprised of human flesh.

    You see, if you’re holding a towel with your hands, nevermind. Do you lol.

    No I’d actually stab the idiot with a towel first. Then kill all the people that froze up, then kill the stragglers.
