not my job

If I were a teacher or parent of a school age child right now I'd be terrified to go there.  I've known many educators over the years who have gone above and beyond to ensure that their students got the best education.  They do it because they love to see the light go on in a kid's eyes and it pays the bills and sometimes?  It's just cool to teach.

Protecting students from mass shootings is something relatively new to our society that started somewhere around Paducah and spread like wildfire.  Because of the ready availability of repeating firearms sold for "sport" it has turned into an epidemic of blood and gore.  These teachers didn't sign up for the reality of shielding six year olds with their bodies and hiding under tables with the dead ones.  The carnage that has been put in their workplace is a phenomenon that gun rights activists are busy arguing about calling kids stupid because they eat tide pods.  You can't fix stupid which is even more reason for stupid to not have access to an AR15 "style" weapon.  

I love way too many teachers to name anybody but you know who you are.  Keep the faith ^j^
