Arming teachers, what could possibly go wrong?
This for one thing.
Sen. Jeremy Hutchinson, R-Benton, is interested in exploring
whether state law allows school districts to make decisions on school
safety. If a legal avenue does not exist, he hopes the Legislature will
change the law.
After the shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School in
Connecticut, Hutchinson became interested in arming school personnel, he
said. He was invited to attend an "active shooter" training and—using a
rubber bullet-loaded pistol—he mistakenly shot a teacher who was confronting a "bad guy."
Oops.
