[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You are all delusional if you think underpaid public servants are going to protect anyone but themselves. You may have some anomalies like the Coach in parkland, but it's absurd to honestly expect anyone in that pay grade to not protect themselves first.

If you want to protect children against gunman then hire SWAT officers to be stationed at schools. Stop asking resource officers and teachers to protect children.[/quote]

Agreed that teachers shouldn't *have to* protect children, that's not what they signed up for.

But what are resource officers for if not to protect students?[/quote]
