They Got the Gun Fever!
What do scared people need? Time? Nah, they got plenty of that already. Counseling? A little too gay. I know! A gun! That will keep the bad people away!
After the recent school shootings, some teachers in Salt Lake City are deciding to make sure that if the unlikely should happen, they can shoot it in the head.
My question is this: why is it always shoot first, ask questions later? I understand there’s an argument for safety but did we have to go all the way to guns? Why not tasers? Or if you have to do guns, how about tranquilizer guns? How about using something non-deadly instead of bringing something deadly into a school so something else deadly doesn’t make people dead?
What’s been happening in these schools is terrible and truly tragic. If and when some kid gets the teacher’s gun, that will be tragedy invited. It’s possible that some teacher will use a gun to protect students from the mentally unstable, but I think it’s more likely that it just gives the mentally unstable, whether it be a student or teacher, easier access to weaponry.
Then again, this is America. If you can imagine something to be afraid of, I guess it’s only fitting to imagine a solution.
