Well i'm very glad that she doesn't want to shoot her students.

[legoimperialguard]

I love my students, but i don’t want to protect them from a psychopath.

[marryson]

That literally makes no sense….. anyways, if you don’t want to carry, don’t carry. No one is forcing you to carry. Don’t tell others not to carry simply because you don’t want to.

Thank whoever she’s not a teacher anymore. She literally couldn’t fathom another use for a firearm in the setting she brought up herself?

[malrofo]

The gun isnt for shooting the she really know how how to use one?

[nicholasjones]

She’s never used a gun cause gun owners and shooters don’t act like this. It’s called concealed carry lmfao!

[stickamo]

"I'm a gun owner please believe me"

[rogerbuesing]

She certainly doesn’t love her students enough to defend them…misguided all the way

New Tennessee gun law for schools is brilliant. Beverley Hills, CA schools have had armed guards for decades upon decades. There hasn’t been a problem with school shootings in any of those schools as of yet - armed guards in schools are the only way to stop a mass murderer with a gun. Standing ovation Tennessee👏🏽💪💪🏽💪🏻💪🏿❣️🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

What's if the person "killing your students" is not a student? Would you not protect them? Or would you just volunteer to die for them as they continue to kill after they kill you?

[smmalafa]

Well that’s the point of concealed carry, you’re not doing it in front of them.

[scotteyers]

If one of your students was shooting other students, would you die for the shooter? Or die for the others?

Or would you instead choose the harder option.

To not die. And not allow innocents to die.

Hard to protect your students AFTER you've died for them.

[tombutkovich]

She obviously doesn’t love her students enough to protect them.

[AnistasiaHausia]

The way she said she would die for them 😢❤ shes a real teacher 😢❤ who loves her students ❤❤!

[EVLV_Eclipse]

If i was a teacher in this time id ask the school board if i could take one and carry incase of a shooting to PROTECT the students

[jarrod]

The gun is for anybody harming the students

[nicholasjones]

This is why Indiana just passed a law that us teachers and bus drivers take a class and are aloud to conceal carry. GET SOME! PROTECT THE ONLY LIFE YOU GET ON THIS EARTH PEOPLE!

[juneek]

Why is carrying a gun in front of children a problem??

[cesarcesar]

The only way to stop a bad person with a gun is a good person with a gun. Period.

[Fuego-si]

If a teacher wants to be armed in schools they should be given the resources to do so.
