In 1974, for instance, during Passover, the PLO launched a series of attacks specifically targeting schools, buses, kindergartens and other child-oriented targets. I have read (I have enough trouble keeping track of Ohio gun laws, much less Israel’s gun laws) that Israel, at that time, had fairly strict gun control, dating back to British rule of the territory 50+ years before that. After a brief gnashing of teeth (“This isn’t the wild west!”) Israel took the novel approach of handing out guns and permits to any capable adult. Teachers, nannies, bus drivers, cafeteria workers, what have you, all started carrying guns. Parents (armed) volunteered to work security shifts, grandparents (armed) became fixtures in schools. Older children received compulsory gun safety training and a sort of high school militia was organized. Soon enough, the Islamic terrorists realized that attacking schools in Israel was a sucker’s bet. Despite the heavy concentration of guns in schools in Israel for 3+ decades, their school shooting rate is non-existent compared to gun-free American schools.

Well sooner or later, we’ll wake up that the world is a dangerous place. And, no amount of wishing will make it less so.
You either believe that most people are good or most people are evil.
If good, then what is the hard of letting folks defend themselves?
If evil, then why would you want to be defenseless?
Readers here know that I am NOT a fan of gooferment education. It’s nothing more than a baby sitting service that I am forced to pay for that wastes decades of children’s time while filling their heads full of socialist crap.
BUT
Why create target rich zones with no armed opposition?
It’s just asking for killing.
Why can’t teachers, administrators, and custodians — or for that matter even students — be armed?
Don’t you trust them?
:-)
If not, why are you sending children there? If you do, then what’s the problem?
Can’t have it both ways.
