Tennessee's Armed Teachers Bill moving forward.
"“I think it’s just one more thing teachers have to deal with, unfortunately. I don’t want a teacher to have to moonlight as a cop in a school,” Senate Minority Leader Raumesh Akbari (D-Memphis) said. “I don’t want a teacher to get injured, I don’t want the students to be in a situation where they won’t be safe. I just don’t think this is the answer to school violence.”

I am so effing tired of this excuse/explanation.
“I think the last thing we want is for them to have weapons,” Akbari said. “You even look at the Covenant shooting, there were some people there, administrators, who had weapons, and it did not prevent the shooter from doing what she did.”
This is the first time I hear staff was armed at the school. I am not saying is untrue, but I do take a lot of grains of salt from a Democrat, specially Akbari who flooded the Legislature with all kinds of Anti Gun Bills.
“Universally, folks in Tennessee, they’re okay with people having guns. I’m okay with people having guns. I just want folks to be safe,” Akbari said. “We have to have some sort of regulation in this.”
Bullshit. Some of the bills introduced by Akbari are:
She is not OK with people having guns. Perhaps she is OK with a powerful few to have guns as long as she is in the club, but you Untermenschen should not be armed.
