According to this woman: There was not a single adult male on the school premises when the shooting occurred. In this school of 450 students, a sizeable number of whom were undoubtedly 11- and 12-year-old boys (it was a K–6 school)... Some of the teachers managed to save all or some of their charges by rushing them into closets or bathrooms. But in general, a feminized setting is a setting in which helpless passivity is the norm. Male aggression can be a good thing, as in protecting the weak — but it has been forced out of the culture of elementary schools and the education schools that train their personnel. Think of what Sandy Hook might have been like if a couple of male teachers who had played high-school football, or even some of the huskier 12-year-old boys, had converged on Lanza. Cops and everybody else encourage civilians not to try to defend themselves when they are criminally assaulted. This is stupid advice. There are things you can do. Run is one of them, because most shooters can’t hit a moving target. The other, if you are in a confined space, is throw things at the killer, or try a tackle. http://www.nationalreview.com/articles/335996/newtown-answers-nro-symposium#
I think a couple of fat kids could have stopped the guy.....if they both had AR-15's. Bare handed? I think that's asking a lot of a 6th grader. Go Blazers
I'm absolutely certain that an armed female teacher would have had a better chance taking him down than an armed male teacher. Insert lioness with her cubs metaphor/analogy here. Unarmed, it would take a hari kari squad.
Male teachers have been squeezed out for looking at dirty pictures by those dirty manhating unions. The remedy is to replace them with 6-foot tall ostriches who perform tae kwon do kicks.
