[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think a strike is the opposite of what is needed.

I think that teachers can teach kids that the gun culture that families have is akin to mass murders. That if you vote for the NRA, you vote for killing kids. And they can teach our kids that, without ever getting fired-- because teachers are smart and they have very powerful unions.

So, for every drill, they can say as long as we have people that own guns in this area, we have to be careful. We have to be careful because guns can be in the hands of the wrong people, and we have to protect ourselves. And even good people can turn to bad people, because sometimes life is out of control. And when those good people turn into bad people, and have guns, we can't tell the difference between the two and that's why we have to have drills, because the bad people have guns and want to hurt as many people as possible.

I think [b]that if every teacher starts teaching that, teaches the shame of gun culture, we may have a chance. [/b]

I'm an educator and do not own a gun. You seriously think it's okay for teachers to teach their values at school? I assume you'll think it's okay if we teach the shame of abortions that end potential lives of their little sisters and brothers?[/quote]

Two teacher household here and we agree. We don’t own guns but have no problem with people who do. The PP’s suggestion is ridiculous.[/quote]
