Yes, they're really needed in London too. Maybe that's the enrichment from diversity the liberals are always whining on about.

Miss read the caption under the picture, thought it said Met police commissioner Cressida and a dick. Actually makes more sense.

Bit late, R n C.
I used to do work in London schools 15yrs ago, and it was a problem then.
One school caretaker asked me if I carried a knife. When I told him that I didn't, he replied that I would be in the minority.
Southwark, that was.

This is a strange thread........

Yet there was an armed police officer on site who left the building instead of trying to confront the shooter.

What is to stop any potential shooter taking out the armed guard first, a guard would be visible where as a shooter could look just like any other civilian and would have the element of surprise on his side.
American schools are big places I would imagine ,a shooter with a concealed weapon could walk past any guard an simply go to another part of the school an open fire, by the time the guard arrives there could be dozens killed.
As for arming teachers what is to prevent a crazy student from taking a gun from a teacher and opening fire.

An arguing student reaches for his pencil case to get a rubber.....

teachers thinks he is going for a handgun.....

hard to imagine: well its not uncommon with US police.

what would it feel like to a teacher to go to work every day mindful that he is carrying a concealed weapon?

Every time a US policeman stops a car for a traffic violation he has to assume there driver might be carrying a gun....what does that feel like?

Is that good society to live in?

Perhaps US police will start shooting random teachers

Instead of just shooting random black men.

I have a concealed weapon. But that's not appropriate for this thread.
