I don't know about the teachers, but if say the principal is properly trained to be carrying a gun, I wouldn't complain.
Sure it doesn't solve all the problems and you don't want a damn firefight going on in the hallways of an elementary school, but if an adult knows how to use a gun and isn't a wingnut, why not?
I do think though that a lot of people visualize some sort or scene out of a movie where the bad guy walks in and Joe Englishteacher pulls a pistol out of his holster and blows him away.
It would probably take a guy from the Delta Force to be able to use a gun properly in a room full of frantic (or dead) kids. Hmm. Maybe I talked myself out of it.
