I doubt that very much.

What "hurr ban all guns" retards and "hurr arm all teachers" retards have in common is ridiculously overestimating the danger that school shootings actually pose. When it happens it gets a lot of press and it's very sad, but from a purely rational, statistics based analysis, it's not even worth worrying about. Compare school shooting deaths to car accidents, for example.

So introducing guns into the situation is adding a dangerous element to prevent something that doesn't really pose a threat. I would bet anything it results in more deaths than it prevents. Just like, in general, you are dozens of times more likely to accidentally shoot someone than to successfully use a gun in self defense.

Don't get me wrong - I think you should be allowed to own whatever guns you want. I just think it's totally irrational if you're owning them out of fear, rather than for recreation.

No, but all adults are responsible right? Especially teachers? Right? If an armed person entered a school, surely staff would take action right? Since of course you would "shoot that commie bastard in the head..." without hesitation? Since you know, people don't panic, accidents don't happen, and all students and teachers are safe and responsible.

With that logic, every gun owner is a properly trained one. Every gun owner is trained, and would act completely correct. Guess what, they already don't.
You are the fucking stupid ones if you believe that.

Then again, if they were licensed and trained to use a gun, they would never incorrectly use it, right? No, that never happens.

If teachers had guns, I bet you anything the school related gun deaths would only go up. Maybe, but unlikely may stop one or even two school shootings. There would most likely be more deaths from accidents alone than normal school shootings.

>>34420456
Being harmed during a violent or criminal situation only increases the danger. Two people having a fist fight, is just a fist fight. If one of them have a gun, the chances of a shooting goes up.

Then again, all gun owners are never in the wrong. They never make mistakes, or do something wrong. They would just shoot all those commie terrorist bastards in the head without hesitation, saving the day.

The /majority/ of gun owners act as they should. Only about 0.15% of gun owners will ever break firearm laws in a violent manner.

A teacher isn't going to take the gun out of wherever it is kept and start playing with it because they're bored. Nor will the gun go off on its own.

Nope, because only an insane teacher would open fire surrounded by other guns, and he'd be put down in seconds. Unlike if the shooter was the only entity there with a weapon.

I didn't, as I saw the trend towards OP's image.
I'm not particularly liberal, but some modern industries have tended towards abuse and rights infringement (e.g. telecom, pharma, food) and therefore either need to be restructured or nationalized. Restructuring didn't work 40 years ago (AT&T/Bell), so we should give nationalization a try.

The founders put that in there because God was supposed to be above man's authority. Of course, seeing as a bunch of people don't believe in God these days, you can see why that bit of protection isn't as effective as it was supposed to be.

That's the irony of not believing in [insert deity here]. You may be free from religious control, but you can't really use "God's protection" when you don't believe in him at all. Which means you need to come up with other reasons why our rights should be protected.

Ofc it was the same in the wild west, but it still is true.

There is no way for police to be there in time. I live in Zürich and my neighbor has an alarm system, which once went off by mistake and it took the police 15 minutes to show up, and keep in mind this is in the biggest city, it's way worse in the countryside.

Okay, the line above isn't serious, but even when I get emotional, the worst thought I've had of someone was "it would be better if they didn't exist", not "I should shoot this motherfucker".
I've never reached for a gun to hurt somebody in my life, but if I ever do, it will only be to incapacitate someone who is a threat to someone else--not because I got pissed.
Again, most people in the world are quite civil, and most gun owners who know how dangerous they can be will second guess themselves every time they reach for a gun, which I think is quite healthy.

Also, by your argument, let's ban knives in kitchens, because people regularly argue in their kitchens.
