Amy Klobuchar On Why Teachers Shouldn't Be Armed | MSNBC
When I become Principal, I will have an AK under the American Flag.
We have a constitutional crisis with mass stabbings with assault knives
C.A.T. No not funny just the truth
@Brian Lanier Mass shootings with assault rifles on practically a daily basis are the truth, and are a national tragedy, and you’re playing goofy little word games. Nice.
@C.A.T. not at all. Just ask any parent of the victims.
Their kids dont go to public schools.
Good point
USA should be ashamed of itself for even be having to have this conversation.
Look at some comments below and you will know why.
Wouldn’t you rather have a conversation of ideas than not?
We shouldn’t have to have a conversation about late term abortion but we do. We shouldn’t have to have a conversation of wether we have a right to protect our borders but we do. I really crazy about arming teachers but the gun free zone (not surprisingly)doesn’t work.
@trainwreck told ya “We shouldn’t have have to have a conversation about (insert whatever here) but we do…”
If you are trying to offer argument against my initial statement with such a line, then you are indulging in a logical fallacy. A form of whataboutism.
Sweet Jesus arming a teacher! As a veteran this simply boggles the mind! Anyone familiar with friendly fire military or police can attest as to why this just insane! This is what Jesus taught?
Is Amy still hanging around?
It’s looking more and more, like a 4 way democrat race: Biden, Sanders, Warren, Pete.
$ 100 Billion increase in subsidies and transfers to school districts in crisis as a backstop to weak partisan state legislatures in coming elections. Liz Warren wants to Target rich and raise $800 bill with a 2 cent tax and a cabinet based on whimsy and a unicorn ranching commune. Using wind power! Unlike communist Command economies we can not hunt rich people’s 💰 Amy will stay in this race and unify this country or pick up the nod in 2024. Cool either way🤗 Vote Dem for a change & fair dealing
I’ve gotten dumber from having read your comment.
As someone from the UK where gun ownership is strictly controlled and most people don’t own one, I observe the situation in US with incredulity. The unbelievable suggestion that teachers should be armed is a symptom of the sickness of a society where gun ownership is widespread because powerful organisations like the NRA want it that way and huge amounts of money are made from selling arms and ammunition. I’m a pacifist anyway so I cannot understand why anyone gets satisfaction from firing a weapon even at a target. Nor do I understand the mentality of for me inadequate individuals who believe they have achieved something by killing a wild creature with a weapon in a completely unfair contest and when they dont actually need to eat the animal anyway. I have met many fine Americans in my visits there but you have some of the most corrupted individuals I have ever seen in some of your right-wing politicians, who enrich themselves at the expense of their voters. Unfortunately the US has a huge cultural influence in the world through its leadership of tech industries, and I watch in horror as Donald Trump threatens our UK health service as a precondition of a post Brexit closer relationship with the US. I wish there were a God so that Trump would get his punishment in the next world even though he seems to be made of Teflon in this one!
Shouldn’t you be in the streets throwing a tantrum?
You’re failing and it’s hard. You know,
the left isn’t accepting Boris Johnson’s victory in England, either. But they don’t dare try that Russia bit.
No teacher signs up to be a killer.
Somebody give her a comb, so she can eat her salad.
You Democrats have no narrative, it’s dead and predictable. Tom got a grasp, but Yang sees reality.
There’s not a thing wrong with the second amendment. And not all teachers need to be armed. More like veteran teacher’s and those with weapon experience.
Dumb take, almost as dumb as hiring someone with “WEapOn ExPerIENce” to be a “school safety officer”.
Everyone should be armed .
Thats why I support Guns for Tots this Christmas. Because Christ wanted us all to be armed 24/7.
Give teachers guns lmao

You heard it here first folks get people to vote for you by sharing with them that your father is an alcoholic and has been arrested multiple times for drinking and driving
Teachers should be banned from owning firearms impeach impeach impeach 45
They are ignoring the root of problems. Blame it on the individuals, but leadership is reflecting problems. Being honest is a no no. Can I ask what her yearly salary is?
