Why Guns Should Not Be Allowed In Schools

In 2015, a bill was passed through the house of Representatives to repeal the 1990 Act (article). It was meant to allow for “concealed-carry permit holders to possess firearms in public K-12 schools and University of Wyoming and community college buildings” (article). Its supporters believe that the law is infringing on their right to protect themselves and others. They believe that allowing guns around schools won’t have any effect on the number of guns related incidences or on child safety. Even though some of the concerns, such as the ability to protect themselves and others, are valid, the bigger concerns of child safety and the possible repeals of other legislation for school grounds is much more

There have been a number of mass shooting incidents in schools recently. This violence has caused many casualties and injuries, most recently to innocent children. They never got the chance to grow up and live their lives. These unnecessary shootings have become a normal part of our lives. There are many adults and children who never got the chance to grow up in a world where they truly felt safe. People should not have to live in a constant state of fear when they leave or enter their homes. Adults and children leave their homes every day to go to work or school, but some never make it back home. We need to lessen the problem of gun violence.

In 2007, 32 students and teachers die after being held at gunpoint on the campus of Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University by a student, Seung Hui Cho, who attended the school later on dies from a self-inflicted gunshot wound. In all 27 students and 5 faculty members died. I really think that guns shouldn't be allowed on college campuses at all because it will cause a distraction from the learning environment, would lead to an increased number of suicides by college students, a gun might go off by accident, most college students are too young to carry a concealed handgun license, and school shootings don't happen that often and college campuses are very safe so, therefore, there is no need to carry a concealed weapon on a campus.

Throughout its history, the United States has had a fascination with guns. Americans have used guns in times of war, for protection, and for hunting. Americans also use guns when they are intent on killing people. When violence happens in school shootings, drive-by shootings, assassination of public officials, or in the workplace and shopping malls, Americans demand something be done. This demand fuels the debate between gun rights and gun control activists. It fuels the debate over the interpretation of the Second Amendment. It fuels the debate on allowing citizens to carry concealed weapons in gun-free zones. This makes us ask the question: Should guns be banned from college

Allowing teachers to carry guns will allow teachers to prevent school shootings on the grounds of preschool through college campuses. Everyone has their own opinion about teachers being able to carry guns including other teachers, parents, and government officials. Depending on what state the teacher is teaching in determines if they can carry their gun now, if they are in the process of being able to, or if their state is not passing a law to allow them to carry their gun while at school. Teachers would not stand out like police officers or security officers would while in the school which would allow for other teachers and all of the students to have normal days if schools did not have officers before. Research shows that allowing some teachers to carry guns in their school promotes school safety, protects the teachers and students, and promotes gun safety while still teaching their students.

In a recent interview with the Fife Star, King Malcolm stated that he would “restrict our citizens access to daggers.” Now the left always blames inanimate objects and law abiding sword and dagger owners in the wake of mass killings; of course he will fail in his attempts, to spew his redirect and pass legislation (proven to not work, Pg. 17)

Over the past several years the topic of gun control has been very relevant. With the increase in crime and the school shootings, everybody felt the need to have a concealed weapons permit. They wanted to be able to protect themselves and their children. No where is safe in this day in age everybody is fighting and angry. The one place you wouldn't think to worry about, the one place you trust your children to go to being "school" is now a dangerous place. Why would someone want to target a school with innocent children you may ask? Because these people are sick. This reason being why the teachers need to be allowed to have their concealed weapons permits and be able to carry a weapon on school grounds so that they can protect our children

Although people may say that school administration should be able to carry concealed weapons on school campus for protection of themselves and their students, it is a very bad and dangerous decision. Bringing concealed weapons into schools could cause many tragic things to happen such as a child or teen to possibly pick up the weapon and harm themselves or others, having an unintentional discharge occur in class and it could also cause an increase in violent behavior. So, no administration has no business carrying concealed weapons to school for any reason. It's a bad idea and would just cause heart ache and a lot of unneeded stress.

Schools far away from police and fire need to have concealed weapons to protect students. A vice principal went to his car and got a weapon and was able to stop a school shooting before authorities arrived. Which shows that if concealed carry was allowed he could of possibly stopped the shooter before they started.

Guns have been accepted in society for many years now, even before the second amendment provided U.S. citizens the right to bear arms. Conflicts can arise with having the ability to carry around a gun. Guns should not be encouraged tools in a college setting. If students try and bring guns on campus it could cause fatal incidents to happen. If someone has a disagreement they could possibly shoot someone. Educational campuses should be safe and gun free especially when it comes to the youth. Also there is no need to have a gun on hand if there are law enforcements on campus.

Imagine a world where school shootings did not exist. Parents could send their children to school without having to worry about them being shot. In 2013, thirty school shootings took place in the United States. The most devastating school shooting in U.S. history was the Bath School shooting. On May 18, 1927, Andrew Kehoe entered the Bath Elementary School killing thirty-eight people and injuring fifty-eight. Kehoe then returned to his truck, and committed suicide by using explosives. School teachers would have a better chance, in high risk situations if they carried guns.

School shootings, it seems like every time you turn around there is a crazy person shooting up a school. all you can do is shake your head and wonder why anyone in their right mind would want to go to a school filled with innocent little children and shoot them. the problem here is that people who shouldn't have guns get guns and stuff like this happens. in my opinion i don't think it will help to amend or repeal the second amendment. but if i had to choose i would choose to amend it.people should be allowed to take a gun into and building except church people would be able to protect themselves if something were to happen. there is no reason to get rid of it because people who want a gun that bad will get one. getting rid of the right to own

The most children bring to gun inside for backpacks went schools make sure check. I think children take a steal in gun from home with parents use a left something. Never to justice system about children in school for the gun is still a safe side. Becuase doesn't allow bring to school have a reason, more fact that most people want that is killed to possess with teacher, staff, and etc that happens. For children is not listen to kill about guns self in a provides when people have hurt them still a problem. Should to gun safety in school can't bring to catch something backpacks about that show in often. For students use handguns on school entering is happen are wrong them because social media is playing a show up on campus.

In the article Texas Lawmakers Pass a Bill Allowing Guns at Colleges by Manny Fernandez, the rising tension between the supporters of the bill and the opposing side has increased because of the right of having concealed guns on campus. Guns should not be permitted because it shatters the image of the campus being safe. Anybody can acquire a gun without being eligible. Also, because of the controversy of public schools, they are not given the option to not allow concealed guns on campus. It will reduce the chances of having many shootings or incidents of students losing their lives because of the bill allowing concealed guns on campus.

Claiming that there's "no reason" for citizens to own a knife, Khan is also introducing new stop-and-frisk measures to ensure citizens are completely disarmed.
