ASSIGN MANDATORY, ON-SITE, POLICE OFFICERS TO ALL PUBLIC SCHOOLS NOW!

While our existing lawmakers hash-it-out about background checks, gun control, and mental health, can we all agree to immediately protect our children and teachers in our schools?

Why is this important?

Sure, there will be teachers who are comfortable and confident with special training and having a hand gun at school but the reality is, the majority will not, and unfortunately in this day and age, a hand gun really isn't enough, since AR-15's are the gun of choice for these mass murderers. I will bet that the majority of our teachers would rather just teach, and would prefer to leave the job of security to our law enforcement. Why can't we have a certain number of police assigned to each and every public school...immediately?! Yes, special Federal Funding will need to be provided. I say, Federal Funding, because in this case, it can't be left up to the states or local decision makers. This is too big. While we are all hashing-it-out about background checks, gun control, and mental health, can we all agree to immediately protect our children and teachers in our schools?
