Arkansas district arms teachers

Arkansas

The superintendent of the Clarksville School System has provided over fifty hours of law enforcement training for twenty teachers and staff, and a voucher for them to purchase a firearm to carry in school.

The merits of this approach to school safety can be, and rightfully should be, fully discussed before implementation.

Part of this discussion should be about the ins and outs of carrying a weapon.  Enter Staying Alive: How to act fast and survive deadly encounters.  There is a full chapter on Is it logical for you to carry?  The various concerns for carrying a weapon are covered, as are various non-armed ways to protect yourself.

In its most basic form, safety begins with the individual.  If the individual is not safe, then the group cannot be safe.  Thus, learning to protect yourself is the building block for keeping your home, your workplace, or your school safe.
