One more issue with teachers carrying:

What happens the first time a teacher is breaking up a fight and loses their carry piece?

I've had to break up a few fights, including some that went to the ground where I was trying to pull one kid off another, in that situation it would be all to easy to lose control of your carry piece. Now you have an armed student in a fight situation.

I know I"m raising a what if (and my dad always said that what if your aunt had balls she'd be your uncle) but in 4 years of teaching I"ve had to break up a half a dozen fights; some of which I had to get rather physical.

As for the rush to condescension regarding HCL, its stored in a locked, vented chemical locker in sealed glass containers. Is it a perfect solution? No. But I live in Washington state, and as such I cannot even bring a pocketknife to school with longer than a 3 inch blade. You have a better idea if an active shooter comes in?
