Eric. The issue that is not really brought to light. Is its not about facts. Its about disarming law abiding citizens with the emotions of dead kids that they keep letting happen with these signs “gun free school zone” its not about safety of children or the facts of the matter. Its why they want the issue to persist. They want to kill enough kids in school for everyone to have a knee jerk reaction without caring about the facts. That’s the issue. These communists don’t care about kids. There actions show otherwise. Edit: its called the Hegelian Dialectic.
That is the camera most likely the heads need to be cleaned and calibrated for longevity, otherwise buy new equipment. The camera and editing equipment had been calibrated to industry standard but it changes with environmental changes.
Round up those gremlins and send them to @Kentucky Ballistics to use on his range. He could make use of them and get them out of your way at the same time!
I’m so glad you said that , I was yelling it at the phone “ put up teachers are armed signs “ Yes ! That’s better than “ gun free zone “ thank you Eric 🇺🇸👍
@@alexperez6919 What makes you think a student couldn't just bring a gun from home (already happened) Unstable teacher? sure, then worry about unstable doctors, police officers, truck drivers and gas station attendants, shoot since you can trust any of them guess no guns? A little training and prep, the gun could be secure enough to never be accessed by a student, just like my kids can't access my guns.
@@alexperez6919 Maybe, but there are - right now - mass shootings by children. To be afraid of a possibility in the face of a certainty is a mistake. Also, there is nothing happening right now that is preventing any "unstable" teacher from bringing a gun to class.
The university I was going to, before transferring to SDI, allowed campus carry for teachers and students age 21 and over (with proper license and training). I carried in class, too. That university has never had a shooting. There's also a gun store one block from campus.
@@richarddo7881 Not the original poster but all Utah state operated colleges/universities have had carry for over 20 years iirc. In engineering courses we had probably 5+ carriers per classroom most of the time. There are others though.
Wasn't there a SRO that was armed at Parkland or one of those Florida places? He stood by forever "waiting for backup" I believe. Armed security is absolutely the answer, but cowards need not apply.
@@sjoh104041 Probably because teachers carrying is very rare and school shootings are very rare. There have been plenty of shootings where a police officer or security guard have been armed and present. There's no correlation between having an armed SRO or guard there and a reduction of school shootings.
I'm not a teacher myself, but I believe teachers value the students more than SROs. Many teachers have said they look to their students as they would their own children..just saying
I know here in Ohio we have an armed school teacher program that does work. While it's up to the school board/district and the teacher(s) that want to carry concealed, teachers get the same firearm training as the Ohio state police and undergo yearly background checks. As a result, there have been no successful attacks or even attempts reported.
I worked at a school from 2003 to 2006. First as a groundskeeper and general maintenance and then in a classroom. I would have raised my hand to protect the people of the school.
That is why, if you read my post, I am for arming teachers and staff. If you say "our teachers are armed," that is a great deterrent. However, arm the staff, be they a vice principal, social worker or a groundskeeper and general maintenance person, as you were; force multiplier and you'd "hit" a potential, murderous assailant "out of the blue," stopping a "mass situation" before it ever occurred...
My 5th and grade teacher used to bring in a can or two of expired beans, green, string, refried, etc. When I asked why, he replied, "I used to play college baseball," and that's when I started respecting my teacher.
@Eric Soto Hernandez need I mind you he had 3 milk crates full. Imagine the shooter getting beaned by 25 5th graders and a teacher. And those beans are expired lol
I used to think a cue ball was the right answer until I tried to throw one. A special baseball is the right answer. You have to be able to practice taking the head off a target from across the room. If you don’t practice, you won’t be able to hit the target when you need to.
I carried during higher education for 2 years in Colorado. I had no issues at all when I carried from 2016 to 2018 on campus. I worked at the Rec Center and IT department on campus and the chief of security would use the rec center. Got to talking to him and he said since "2013" I believe when students were allowed to carry, they had no issues since the change. The biggest problem he told me was a student was getting their backpack on the instructor saw the weapon and mentioned it to campus security. They found the student, pulled him aside privately, no drama, verified he was legal to carry and that was the end of it. How it should be.
About a Decade ago Texas went to students can carry on College campuses. Course that was before we went 'Constitutional Carry' when only people over 21 could carry on campuses with a permit. Since we went 'Constitutional Carry', and the court said that 18 to 20 year olds could not be banned from carrying (2022), so now 18 yr old students can carry as well without a permit on campuses.
@@J-Kabar While it was nice I did have an issue with how the change was being handled. It was almost like even though students were allowed, 5 years later not many people knew you even could still. I came across some staff/faculty/instructors who were not even aware. I mean really? One particular encounter I found funny was a fellow student in one of my classes realizing that I had a knife on my person. Was having some difficulty opening a package. When she saw it her reply was "Oh my god you brought a knife to school?" I replied "Yeah it really comes in handy. One of the better decisions I have made." Her not knowing I'm sitting next to her with my carry on my inside right hip.
I'm not sure Bob ever said that, but it is exactly the sort of thing he would say. And it's not wrong. Alaska was certainly like that in the 60's and 70's. I never saw anyone unarmed, even in the outhouse.
I would think Heinlen probably did. As a matter of fact, the following blows my mind: "How can you go to a Gun Show, where so many people are armed?" I say to "those people" that I feel safer at gun shows than at most Supermarkets and/or stores, even though I'm armed... I bring up the exact phrase about "an armed society..."
@@dragonhealer7588 It's a fact that Mr. Heinlein Said it. it was in one of his books. I believe it was either "The moon is a harsh mistress" or "Red Planet". After thinking about it, I believe it was in the latter.
Several remote schools here in Colorado where response time would be especially long have already setup programs to have teachers armed. Training is required and the teachers carrying on a particular day are not know to student body or general public.
The not knowing who is carrying is the perfect way of defending and deterring, as you are eluding to. Really, only an SRO or SROs, a vice principal or even the head of school security in the district should know who is armed. Otherwise, I could see what a potential sicko would do... That is a great idea and something I have been behind. Also, the SRO(s) are there as the "main defense" and, sadly, "targets," while the "unknown" teachers/staff could do what they need to do... No more "mass situations." Also, practice, outside of school hours...
My 14 year old boy is bullied daily. Has been attacked from behind and beat up . And they do nothing about it . Its not one on one in fights in school its a gang mentality. This has to stop . But taking gun from lawful owners is not going to stop this .
*"They* do nothing about it" Sounds like it's time for you to man up and do something about it yourself. If you're keeping your boy in that school... you bear part of the responsibility for allowing the situation to continue. Solve the problem, Greg. You can do it!
My thoughts on protecting schools: I believe strongly in concealed carry for every adult law abiding citizen who feels safe in doing so. This includes teachers but the environment has many potential issues where students might end up taking a weapon from a teacher. A system needs to be devised to eliminate that possibility and still allow every teacher and administrator to rapidly be armed with as effective a weapon as they feel comfortable using. Schools can be harden and it won’t cost a fortune but it will require a solid plan tailored to each school. The unused Covid money is many times what is needed. I am sure that many of us would be glad to work on a design team for nothing. Here are the high level requirements: 1) Perimeter security to slow down and detect intruders. 2) School-wide lockdown alarm that any teacher or administrator can trigger. 3)Classroom response plan to: a) Rapidly secure doors and windows. Door design is important for strength, fast locking, visibility out/not in, countermeasure ports for pepper spray, etc. b) Unlock /Deploy countermeasure safe for teachers so they can repel attackers. Each classroom would have this countermeasure locker which is always locked until the lockdown alarm sounds and then can be unlocked only with a code known only by the teacher. The locker is fitted with whatever the teachers in that classroom are comfortable using and have demonstrated proficiency during training. c) Students go into defensive positions so they can act as a team to repel the attack if the door and the teacher fails. Students will learn the benefits of planning and teamwork as it pertains to their safety. 4) When the police get there, a plan of attack has already been established between the police and school authorities so they can can get to the threat rapidly and eliminate it. Or we can follow a stupid idea that disarming everyone is a real possibility. Only chaos would happen. Power hungry despots both in our government and foreign enemies are behind the disarm movement. Armed citizens are the only thing keeping us as safe as we are.
Sounds like a supermax, btw, all shooters in recently school and bank shootings are law binding citizens before they carried out those deadly shootings, so your law binding is a bit useless and sarcastic.
@@siquanwu3131 it doesn’t matter if a potential shooter is law abiding or not. When they go into a school like I am describing, there’s a good chance all students go home and they leave feet first. As far as a supermax, there’s a podium with a concealed weapon safe in the bottom. Some of the desks would have ballistic materials. All the training would benefit everyone involved for the rest of their lives.
Alright, this is a pretty cool concept. 1. Multiple barbed wire fences with metal detectors to detect/ stop/ slow down intruders. We could have snipers on the rooftops as well just in case one gets through. 2. Very good, there could panic buttons in every classroom. 3. a) Bulletproof rolling shutters rated up to .50 cal on every door and window that automatically roll down when a panic button is pressed. b) This is also a good idea, the locker could have rifles and handguns from 9mm to 12gauge to .50 cal. That way even the most armored of intruders could be stopped. c) Every classroom could be equipped with 20+ level IV shields, then teach students how to quickly assemble a Roman shield wall aka the testudo, good luck getting through that school shooters! If we can get this to every school then school shootings will surely be stopped. Yet people still say taking away guns is the only way to stop it...
@@MathiasLaakkonen Your ridiculous extreme version of what I proposed is still more doable than getting rid of all guns. There are 400 million of them now. Wishing them away won’t work.
I've always found it astonishing that many people in our society will take significant efforts to secure their property and other valuables, even if just to give the impression of security by putting up fake security cameras, signs about being recorded, doors that need to be buzzed open, etc. However, when it comes to our most valued and treasured assets (our kids), we put them in a place that has less armed security than my public library or county records office, and then announce to the world that certain there is a lack of safeguards (guns, other arms). I don't put my expensive jewelry in my front window and then declare that nobody is allowed to bring rocks or metal into that area. I take every step to secure it. My children go to a non-profit private school and the parents and students are told that over 50% of teachers and administration carry. At few years back there were rumors that a student was planning an attack. My kids even said that the student was going to do it at a party because the student was sure he would be quickly stopped.
The biggest issue with arming teachers is the amount of hoops needed to be jumped through before the decision can pass. Roles like the principals, superintendent, etc. can say no to the idea and the idea of arming teachers is instantly shut down, no matter how much the students or teachers universally agree their school may need better security.
That’s the biggest problem with those suppressing the facts that show arming teachers actually has an affect. Many out there are constantly told that arming teachers in ‘immoral’ and just leads to more violence (somehow) so they think arming teachers is bad. As we saw at the beginning of the video shutting down the debate immediately and suppressing the facts works in favour of those that are anti-gun.
That’s why more states need to be like Utah. As long as the teacher has a valid Concealed carry permit the school can’t stop them from carrying in the classrooms they teach in.
I'm an elementary school teacher. Don't forget guys that we have the RIGHT to carry at school, but it's been forcibly taken away from us since the 90s.
In addition to standard active shooter drills with students involved teachers also have separate workshop, improvement, and education days for themselves worked into the sequence of the year. If you have a cross section of the faculty who has consented to carry and is allowed to do so... makes sense to have them play that role within drills that are staff focused to gauge competency, familiarity, and reactions in scenarios. Too often people vilify anyone not pro gun control... but it's a drastically different situation if a shooter enters a classroom and suddenly receives fire from an armed defender.
This is probably just a statistical artifact of how rare school shootings are and how rare armed teachers. I'm all for armed teachers but all it takes to defeat this argument is for it to happen one time. Instead we should just focus on how having anyone armed at the school reduces casualties/deaths in the event of a shooting.
I've been looking for this comment. Well said. All it takes is one teacher losing their marbles or a student snatching a teachers gun and this argument kinda goes sour. That said, I hope an armed school never has to face a shooting just to prove a point either.
I agree 100% as a teacher myself. Giving me my 2A rights back won't guarantee anything, but it does give me a better chance of protecting myself and my students.
My question is this, what about people who are so paranoid that they actually believe that a gun can suddenly go off by itself or anyone who owns a gun is a murderer? I have people like that in my family. I'm sure there are teachers who would refuse to teach at a school that allows any kind of protection like that.
So be it. Let them wallow in their ignorance. If you’re not willing to protect those that trusted in your charge; innocent children, mind you, you shouldn’t be a teacher as teachers are morally, ethically and legally required to do so.
Good, let them remove themselves just like the people fleeing my state because of the inability to groom children. The left wants to kill your children. Every single policy they enact leads to this. Abortion, trans, gun control, drug use. Don't allow them to even pretend to have the high ground.
Not all teachers are good candidates for carrying weapons. But, the ones that are would have no trouble with being prepared to protect the students and fellow teachers. The gun control advocates would rather leave these places vulnerable for the sake of their agendas. It is a very straightforward and simple process to ensure the safety of schools. But the left won't even entertain it.
Well I would say that person isn't educated enough to do any educating therefore should find a new job. If they are not willing to let the school be protected then they need to find a job. Nobody is even saying that the person would have to carry they would simply have the option. if they get so upset over the idea of letting someone in the school protect the children then they can definitely find a new job.
The teachers may like to carry concealed and anonymously as undue attention from others (teachers & students) would be a distraction. Signs are a definite plus. Thanks for this video.
All of the things in life that have value, we protect with armed guards (money, gold, jewelry, thieving two-faced politicians) but for some reason our kids are left unprotected. A roaming patrol of 2 or 3 guys throughout the day would be a deterrent.
And in the case of jewelry and gold, during the last riots in Los Angeles CA the local jewelry store had bullet proof glass. Stopped criminals from getting into the store and taking the jewelry. Those poor poor criminals worked for over half an hour and got nothing.
@@BaconSlayer69 You know that is what I meant, because most criminals won't be able to get a 50 cal. rifle that would go right through the glass, the wall behind the glass, and probably out the building on the other side.
“Gun free zone” who ever thought it was a good idea to put this on a sign? It might as well say “Defenseless fleshy targets here, mass shooters welcome!”
Damn straight. And I respect all the teachers that are armed that aren’t supposed to be I know for a fact there’s countless out there. Im not a teacher but if I was i would break the law to save kids all day.
Back in the DAY the paddIes USED BY the Administration and Guidance CounseIors was pretty effective. Having a gun by a trained teacher and a SIGN warning such on every schooI entrance of such shouId reduce or prevent the attacks that our country has been experiencing. I am a Teacher who supports the 2nd Amendment.
Eric, I am all for what you brought up. I would recommend teachers and staff to be armed. Also, have "mock" simulations (outside of school hours) should be required. I like Rep. Massie and John Lott, who is about 15-20 minutes away from me. The idea would hardly be "prison" and "drills" would be infrequent, maybe like a fire drill? Good video and would work! Why the Dems will not go for it!
In Alabama, those with permits may carry in schools. However, politicians introduced a bill to overturn that! (Carrying in a school without a permit is a felony.) I’ve had a permit now for 30 yrs, with my first at 19! I carried in a community college I attended, went on to retire from the Army (IN) after 22 yrs. and served in GA LE for ten years! When I’m at my children’s school, it’s not a gun free zone. Many other parents carry as well! Our schools are relatively safe, NO mass casualty events in our schools, yet politicians are seeking to weaken our schools!
We need more of this instead of all these pathetic gun control proposals and "assault weapons bans." Especially looking at all of you anti 2nd Amendment states > CT, NY, NJ, CA, etc
LE. You have your public marching orders now. Do your paperwork (and breaks) in the parking lot of a school (or a place of worship). You may unknowingly save lives. And, thank you for your service.
I live down the road from a town named Vidor Tx. Outside their school they have one of the signed in the picture for this video. It says straight out that they are armed and willing to use force to protect the students. This IS the answer. The other schools here that don’t have that practice, have active police stations in the schools where there are a minimum of 2 cops in school at each time. Usually 2 extra off duty in the schools.
I would love to do two video, where an armed person goes into two different school with air soft weapons and see which school was able to save more lives ! (One school have armed teachers or security (have at least 1 gun range every quarter ) vs the other school that is the typical gun free zone )
Here is a BEFORE and AFTER statistics of how many school shootings have occurred since 'Gun Free School Zone act of 1990': * 1073 injuries or deaths since 1990 when "Gun-Free" zones became Law in schools and 56 Mass Shootings in Schools in 30 years (as of the end of 2020). * 273 injuries or deaths 5 Mass Shootings for the previous 30 years before before 1990 gun ban in school. * 617 injuries and deaths in previous 150 years before 1990 and 10 Mass Shootings (today's standard of 3 or more people injured or killed)
Issue with armed school staff is that still makes students nervous. I suspect most students don’t like the idea of Armed staff. Guaranteed as soon there is a single accidental shooting in a school, that will be the end of armed staff.
Why can't we just go back to teaching firearms safety in schools. We had a shooting team in my middle school. Oh and we didn't have school shootings. If you did no one knew about it and it wasn't national news. The media is just as guilty as the one committing these crimes. In their popularizing of it.
The interaction between Rep. Bowman and Massie was absolutely embarrassing for him and it perfectly summarizes this whole debate. One side wants to stand on the dead bodies of children to push for gun control and the other side is proposing a fast and easy solution that we know for a fact works. They don't want to hear it though, so they plug their ears and scream. They would rather use these shootings to push for gun control than actually save lives.
Ever since my high school was attacked (luckily it failed) by an attempted pipe bomber in 2009, I've been saying that properly trained teachers/school staff should have the ability to carry and/or keep firearms on campus and it would not only stop attacks on schools extremely faster, it would also send a message that would make those campuses are willing to fight back which would in itself be a huge deterrent to any potential attacks in the future to begin with. I went to school in the San Francisco Bay Area so naturally I was in an extremely liberal, anti-gun environment to begin with. When the school opened back up and the teachers opened the subject of what happened and what could be done in the future for discussion... when I, a very prominent and vocal pro 2a individual already, proposed such ideas and concepts of armed staff... you know what I was met with? Extreme ridicule from my teacher and some students (others supported what I said too as well) but not only that, my teacher felt so "uncomfortable" with this proposal and my persistence on the subject the following years that she literally got a legal on campus restraining order on me eventually. She felt that I was somehow "threatening her" or some shit. I never got a clear direct answer as to why, but that's how she felt. It's sad but it is what it is. Also just wanna throw this out there, a sick evil individual that wants to carry out a mass casualty attack on a school or anywhere does not need a gun to do it. Perfect example was the attack on my school with pipe bombs that luckily failed. The attacker also had a number of knives, a machete and a chainsaw with him as well. His plan was to throw the bombs into classrooms and put door wedges on the outside of the doors so no one could open them and then go all Jason Voorhees-Texas Chainsaw Massacre on anyone that stood in his path.
@@Truthbomb918 Israel had Terrorists attacking their schools for years. Do you know what stopped them? Israel ARMED their teachers. Since then the Terrorists, which is all a school shooter is, stopped attacking the schools.
I'm in a rural area in Pennsylvania, and, here, you can't get into a school unless you tell them who you are, why you're there, then provide your ID so they can see it on the camera. Once you do that, they buzz you in, I believe all of the other doors have mag locks, so they can't be accessed, and since it's rural, the state police do roving patrols at the schools.
I was County Officer 👮♀️ for thirty years and stayed as Reserve Officer for seventeen more. During that time I worked at a Charter School as a Security Supervisor but the Owner of the School told not to carry a gun in the school. What he didn’t know didn’t hurt him, but I felt better. Stayed two years and left.
Yup. Easier when you are LEO, but forgiveness over permission is my usual policy. I'm kind of jealous. My dad is retired military and LEO, and his enhanced carry permit just shows up in the mail. I saw his notice of renewal, so I asked him about it. He said that it's free and he never has to take a class. Lucky. I wouldn't get a permit on principle, but if they just sent me one in the mail, I might utilize it. LoL
I'm sure you recorded this video before the verdict but Matt Hoover was just convicted! Our whole community needs to know about the verdict and that it could happen to any of us.
Yes I support any teacher or school employee who wants to conceal carry in class to do so! I would also encourage schools to once again teach gun safety and encourage school gun clubs! They used to be common! There are photographs from the 1940s through the 1960s of gun ranges on the school grounds and of girls and boys dressed in P.E. clothes practicing with rifles in the schools! These are in places like Los Angeles, Chicago, and New York!
Yes, I loved mine. Well, I didn't go into the class, but I knew him. He is friends with my cousin, who's also a teacher at my local school funny enough.
Some one brought up the fact that Lee Harvey Oswald used a bolt action WWI antique rifle and got off many rounds at over 100 yards at a moving target and made mostly all upper body hits in a very short time. So if he could do that at a rate comparable to a semi-auto rifle why are they so upset about Semi-auto rifles?
My niece is a teacher, and my sister an assistant teacher. Both agree on being well informed, well armed, and well posted signage that our children are important enough to be well guarded. Lets meet the challenge. Our children are more important than prison inmates. They deserve armed guards in private and teacher forms. Thank you for the video post!
^this because when I was in high school in late-1998, there was an incident that made the local news, where a teacher was violently raped in one of the bottom floor classrooms, as it was mentioned that the rapist (possibly a former student) might've snuck in through one of the fire exits. I didn't witness the actual crime itself, but I definitely was there the day it happened. And oddly enough, the School Resource Officers that were there didn't even have guns on them.
I work for a big name brand Company, they have a policy saying you cannot have a gun on you while working. I still carry a 380 Ruger mouse gun in an ankle holster and a SCCY 9mm in a shoulder holster since I wear a jacket at work during the day.
You need to get something besides that sccy man. It's an awful company and I would hate for you to have to depend on that to save your or someone elses life. Not talking shit just speaking from experience by living close to where that firearm is produced.
@@MegadethTillDeth I've never had an issue with my SCCY. I practice twice a month at my local indoor range and it's accurate and reliable for me. Every company makes lemons here and there.
Isnt (Davos) Switzerland a place where most teachers are armed, and the population in general has an incredibly high gun possession rate? With one of the lowest violent crime rates in the world, is it any wonder why the world “leaders” always seem to meet in Davos? We use guns to protect politician, celebrities and even banks, wy not use guns to protect our most precious resource? Seems like Switzerland may have figured out this particular problem... not that they don’t have other problems.
I've been saying this 4 years. I'm retired from the school board had 15 years in as an electrician and my boss told me this year that in March that whoever has there CCW can carry. All I can said is damn it's about time....
I’m Miami we used to create a space on the school property for a Highway Patrol Officer to put a Mobile Home and live on the school grounds with his Patrol Car parked in the “yard” Was very effective for a few years but then the parents started complaining as the classes graduated and new students came in. So- the school folded and asked the to move out.
How has knowing how to stop a threat and protect kids never been a requirement for teachers? The older I get the more I realize the adults and parents from the past generations have had their heads in their asses.
The 68gca requires officials, medical and legal to report individuals making threats to prevent purchases. In 1992 the phycologist/phycology body felt it was demeaning to place that individual on such list, hence why we are here discussing these events.

The university I was going to, before transferring to SDI, allowed campus carry for teachers and students age 21 and over (with proper license and training). I carried in class, too. That university has never had a shooting. There's also a gun store one block from campus.
That’s a proper way to go.

It should be constitutional carry, and no 21 year old ago limit.
@@richarddo7881 Not the original poster but all Utah state operated colleges/universities have had carry for over 20 years iirc. In engineering courses we had probably 5+ carriers per classroom most of the time. There are others though.
An armed society is a what?
Wasn't there a SRO that was armed at Parkland or one of those Florida places? He stood by forever "waiting for backup" I believe. Armed security is absolutely the answer, but cowards need not apply.
Correct there happened to be a coward there that went and hid in his vehicle and then was told to stand down
@@jamessharpe6699 but he was an armed member of the staff. So the idea that NO SHOOTINGS HAVE HAPPENED is not totally true.
@@DaveL9170 no sir, he was a deputy sheriff on duty at the school, Scott Peterson.
@@sjoh104041 Probably because teachers carrying is very rare and school shootings are very rare. There have been plenty of shootings where a police officer or security guard have been armed and present. There's no correlation between having an armed SRO or guard there and a reduction of school shootings.
I'm not a teacher myself, but I believe teachers value the students more than SROs. Many teachers have said they look to their students as they would their own children..just saying
I know here in Ohio we have an armed school teacher program that does work. While it's up to the school board/district and the teacher(s) that want to carry concealed, teachers get the same firearm training as the Ohio state police and undergo yearly background checks. As a result, there have been no successful attacks or even attempts reported.
That's a good first step. The next step is acknowledging our 2A rights and letting us carry simply because it is our right to do so.
Alright OHIO👍
Mr. Massie is a "Rock Star"!
I worked at a school from 2003 to 2006. First as a groundskeeper and general maintenance and then in a classroom. I would have raised my hand to protect the people of the school.
That is why, if you read my post, I am for arming teachers and staff. If you say "our teachers are armed," that is a great deterrent. However, arm the staff, be they a vice principal, social worker or a groundskeeper and general maintenance person, as you were; force multiplier and you'd "hit" a potential, murderous assailant "out of the blue," stopping a "mass situation" before it ever occurred...
My 5th and grade teacher used to bring in a can or two of expired beans, green, string, refried, etc. When I asked why, he replied, "I used to play college baseball," and that's when I started respecting my teacher.
Picturing an armed intruder get taken out by a can of green beans is funny as hell
@Eric Soto Hernandez need I mind you he had 3 milk crates full. Imagine the shooter getting beaned by 25 5th graders and a teacher. And those beans are expired lol
Love it
That's the answer! lol
I used to think a cue ball was the right answer until I tried to throw one. A special baseball is the right answer. You have to be able to practice taking the head off a target from across the room. If you don’t practice, you won’t be able to hit the target when you need to.
I carried during higher education for 2 years in Colorado. I had no issues at all when I carried from 2016 to 2018 on campus. I worked at the Rec Center and IT department on campus and the chief of security would use the rec center. Got to talking to him and he said since "2013" I believe when students were allowed to carry, they had no issues since the change. The biggest problem he told me was a student was getting their backpack on the instructor saw the weapon and mentioned it to campus security. They found the student, pulled him aside privately, no drama, verified he was legal to carry and that was the end of it. How it should be.
Absolutely based. I wish it was like that everywhere
"Legal to carry" is doublespeak for "have daddy gov'ts permission to exercise inalienable rights"
About a Decade ago Texas went to students can carry on College campuses. Course that was before we went 'Constitutional Carry' when only people over 21 could carry on campuses with a permit. Since we went 'Constitutional Carry', and the court said that 18 to 20 year olds could not be banned from carrying (2022), so now 18 yr old students can carry as well without a permit on campuses.
@@J-Kabar While it was nice I did have an issue with how the change was being handled. It was almost like even though students were allowed, 5 years later not many people knew you even could still. I came across some staff/faculty/instructors who were not even aware. I mean really? One particular encounter I found funny was a fellow student in one of my classes realizing that I had a knife on my person. Was having some difficulty opening a package. When she saw it her reply was "Oh my god you brought a knife to school?" I replied "Yeah it really comes in handy. One of the better decisions I have made." Her not knowing I'm sitting next to her with my carry on my inside right hip.
“An armed society is a polite society. Manners are good when one may have to back up his acts with his life.”
- Robert A. Heinlein
I'm not sure Bob ever said that, but it is exactly the sort of thing he would say. And it's not wrong. Alaska was certainly like that in the 60's and 70's. I never saw anyone unarmed, even in the outhouse.
@@dragonhealer7588 Yes, Bob did indeed say that (though he used one of his character's mouths to do it)
Robert A. Heinlein has never been to Birmingham Alabama apparently.
I would think Heinlen probably did. As a matter of fact, the following blows my mind: "How can you go to a Gun Show, where so many people are armed?" I say to "those people" that I feel safer at gun shows than at most Supermarkets and/or stores, even though I'm armed... I bring up the exact phrase about "an armed society..."
@@dragonhealer7588 It's a fact that Mr. Heinlein Said it. it was in one of his books.
I believe it was either "The moon is a harsh mistress" or "Red Planet". After thinking about it, I believe it was in the latter.
Several remote schools here in Colorado where response time would be especially long have already setup programs to have teachers armed. Training is required and the teachers carrying on a particular day are not know to student body or general public.
The not knowing who is carrying is the perfect way of defending and deterring, as you are eluding to. Really, only an SRO or SROs, a vice principal or even the head of school security in the district should know who is armed. Otherwise, I could see what a potential sicko would do... That is a great idea and something I have been behind. Also, the SRO(s) are there as the "main defense" and, sadly, "targets," while the "unknown" teachers/staff could do what they need to do... No more "mass situations." Also, practice, outside of school hours...
That was a great video. Especially the beginning describing what happened between Bowman and Massey. Very well put.
Love your videos man. Keep them coming.
This is the logic that we need. It’s the only way to stop this from happening. I fully support it.
My 14 year old boy is bullied daily. Has been attacked from behind and beat up . And they do nothing about it . Its not one on one in fights in school its a gang mentality. This has to stop . But taking gun from lawful owners is not going to stop this .
*"They* do nothing about it"
Sounds like it's time for you to man up and do something about it yourself.
If you're keeping your boy in that school... you bear part of the responsibility for allowing the situation to continue.
Solve the problem, Greg. You can do it!
@@Jay_in_Japan it's all the schools here , they just have two weeks and their out for summer then he goes to high school
I used to get bullied at that age, I then shown that I can throw hands, and magically it all stopped

GREAT SHOW TODAY!!!! APPRECIATE YOU BROTHER & KEEP ON,KEEPING ON!
Well said. I believe in solutions that work, and statistically and psychologically trained armed teachers make sense.
Great video as usual Eric! You’ve got a good head on your shoulders, and make a lot of sense.
My thoughts on protecting schools:
I believe strongly in concealed carry for every adult law abiding citizen who feels safe in doing so. This includes teachers but the environment has many potential issues where students might end up taking a weapon from a teacher. A system needs to be devised to eliminate that possibility and still allow every teacher and administrator to rapidly be armed with as effective a weapon as they feel comfortable using.
Schools can be harden and it won’t cost a fortune but it will require a solid plan tailored to each school. The unused Covid money is many times what is needed. I am sure that many of us would be glad to work on a design team for nothing. Here are the high level requirements:
1) Perimeter security to slow down and detect intruders.
2) School-wide lockdown alarm that any teacher or administrator can trigger.
3)Classroom response plan to:
a) Rapidly secure doors and windows. Door design is important for strength, fast locking, visibility out/not in, countermeasure ports for pepper spray, etc.
b) Unlock /Deploy countermeasure safe for teachers so they can repel attackers. Each classroom would have this countermeasure locker which is always locked until the lockdown alarm sounds and then can be unlocked only with a code known only by the teacher. The locker is fitted with whatever the teachers in that classroom are comfortable using and have demonstrated proficiency during training.
c) Students go into defensive positions so they can act as a team to repel the attack if the door and the teacher fails. Students will learn the benefits of planning and teamwork as it pertains to their safety.
4) When the police get there, a plan of attack has already been established between the police and school authorities so they can can get to the threat rapidly and eliminate it.
Or we can follow a stupid idea that disarming everyone is a real possibility. Only chaos would happen. Power hungry despots both in our government and foreign enemies are behind the disarm movement. Armed citizens are the only thing keeping us as safe as we are.
Top tier comment.
Sounds like a supermax, btw, all shooters in recently school and bank shootings are law binding citizens before they carried out those deadly shootings, so your law binding is a bit useless and sarcastic.
@@siquanwu3131 it doesn’t matter if a potential shooter is law abiding or not. When they go into a school like I am describing, there’s a good chance all students go home and they leave feet first. As far as a supermax, there’s a podium with a concealed weapon safe in the bottom. Some of the desks would have ballistic materials. All the training would benefit everyone involved for the rest of their lives.
Alright, this is a pretty cool concept.
1. Multiple barbed wire fences with metal detectors to detect/ stop/ slow down intruders. We could have snipers on the rooftops as well just in case one gets through.
2. Very good, there could panic buttons in every classroom.
3.
a) Bulletproof rolling shutters rated up to .50 cal on every door and window that automatically roll down when a panic button is pressed.
b) This is also a good idea, the locker could have rifles and handguns from 9mm to 12gauge to .50 cal. That way even the most armored of intruders could be stopped.
c) Every classroom could be equipped with 20+ level IV shields, then teach students how to quickly assemble a Roman shield wall aka the testudo, good luck getting through that school shooters!
If we can get this to every school then school shootings will surely be stopped. Yet people still say taking away guns is the only way to stop it...
@@MathiasLaakkonen Your ridiculous extreme version of what I proposed is still more doable than getting rid of all guns. There are 400 million of them now. Wishing them away won’t work.
I've always found it astonishing that many people in our society will take significant efforts to secure their property and other valuables, even if just to give the impression of security by putting up fake security cameras, signs about being recorded, doors that need to be buzzed open, etc.
However, when it comes to our most valued and treasured assets (our kids), we put them in a place that has less armed security than my public library or county records office, and then announce to the world that certain there is a lack of safeguards (guns, other arms).
I don't put my expensive jewelry in my front window and then declare that nobody is allowed to bring rocks or metal into that area. I take every step to secure it.
My children go to a non-profit private school and the parents and students are told that over 50% of teachers and administration carry. At few years back there were rumors that a student was planning an attack. My kids even said that the student was going to do it at a party because the student was sure he would be quickly stopped.
Sign should read, "Staff are armed. If you enter with the intent to harm our students, you will be meet with dealt force".
Love this!, every school should follow❤️
The biggest issue with arming teachers is the amount of hoops needed to be jumped through before the decision can pass. Roles like the principals, superintendent, etc. can say no to the idea and the idea of arming teachers is instantly shut down, no matter how much the students or teachers universally agree their school may need better security.
That’s the biggest problem with those suppressing the facts that show arming teachers actually has an affect. Many out there are constantly told that arming teachers in ‘immoral’ and just leads to more violence (somehow) so they think arming teachers is bad.
As we saw at the beginning of the video shutting down the debate immediately and suppressing the facts works in favour of those that are anti-gun.
That’s why more states need to be like Utah. As long as the teacher has a valid Concealed carry permit the school can’t stop them from carrying in the classrooms they teach in.
I'm an elementary school teacher. Don't forget guys that we have the RIGHT to carry at school, but it's been forcibly taken away from us since the 90s.
In addition to standard active shooter drills with students involved teachers also have separate workshop, improvement, and education days for themselves worked into the sequence of the year. If you have a cross section of the faculty who has consented to carry and is allowed to do so... makes sense to have them play that role within drills that are staff focused to gauge competency, familiarity, and reactions in scenarios. Too often people vilify anyone not pro gun control... but it's a drastically different situation if a shooter enters a classroom and suddenly receives fire from an armed defender.
I don't remember who made the statement that " An armed society is a polite society " but it does seem to be true.
Robert Heinlein, but he may not have been tge first!
“An armed society is a polite society. Manners are good when one may have to back up his acts with his life.”
- Robert A. Heinlein
Thank you for the information.
This is probably just a statistical artifact of how rare school shootings are and how rare armed teachers. I'm all for armed teachers but all it takes to defeat this argument is for it to happen one time. Instead we should just focus on how having anyone armed at the school reduces casualties/deaths in the event of a shooting.
I've been looking for this comment. Well said. All it takes is one teacher losing their marbles or a student snatching a teachers gun and this argument kinda goes sour. That said, I hope an armed school never has to face a shooting just to prove a point either.
I agree 100% as a teacher myself. Giving me my 2A rights back won't guarantee anything, but it does give me a better chance of protecting myself and my students.
Covenant Church shooting has multiple staff members armed.
My question is this, what about people who are so paranoid that they actually believe that a gun can suddenly go off by itself or anyone who owns a gun is a murderer? I have people like that in my family. I'm sure there are teachers who would refuse to teach at a school that allows any kind of protection like that.
So be it. Let them wallow in their ignorance.
If you’re not willing to protect those that trusted in your charge; innocent children, mind you, you shouldn’t be a teacher as teachers are morally, ethically and legally required to do so.
Perhaps they shouldn't be teachers. I am sure they can get a job as a waitress.
Good, let them remove themselves just like the people fleeing my state because of the inability to groom children. The left wants to kill your children. Every single policy they enact leads to this. Abortion, trans, gun control, drug use. Don't allow them to even pretend to have the high ground.
Not all teachers are good candidates for carrying weapons. But, the ones that are would have no trouble with being prepared to protect the students and fellow teachers. The gun control advocates would rather leave these places vulnerable for the sake of their agendas. It is a very straightforward and simple process to ensure the safety of schools. But the left won't even entertain it.
Well I would say that person isn't educated enough to do any educating therefore should find a new job.
If they are not willing to let the school be protected then they need to find a job.
Nobody is even saying that the person would have to carry they would simply have the option.
if they get so upset over the idea of letting someone in the school protect the children then they can definitely find a new job.
It's infuriating that these cowardly politicians wouldn't let our children be protected as well as they are!!!
Well stated Eric! Appreciate the work you do.
Couldnt have said it better myself. Well done, Sir.
The teachers may like to carry concealed and anonymously as undue attention from others (teachers & students) would be a distraction. Signs are a definite plus. Thanks for this video.
All of the things in life that have value, we protect with armed guards (money, gold, jewelry, thieving two-faced politicians) but for some reason our kids are left unprotected. A roaming patrol of 2 or 3 guys throughout the day would be a deterrent.
And in the case of jewelry and gold, during the last riots in Los Angeles CA the local jewelry store had bullet proof glass. Stopped criminals from getting into the store and taking the jewelry. Those poor poor criminals worked for over half an hour and got nothing.
@@roseblite6449 there’s no such thing as bullet proof glass it’s bullet resistant
@@BaconSlayer69 You know that is what I meant, because most criminals won't be able to get a 50 cal. rifle that would go right through the glass, the wall behind the glass, and probably out the building on the other side.
That Sir, is a very sound logic in my opinion.
“Gun free zone” who ever thought it was a good idea to put this on a sign? It might as well say “Defenseless fleshy targets here, mass shooters welcome!”
They don’t care about your statistics they aren’t acting in good faith, they are enemies 🤷♀️
Thank you for talking about this, other channels need to report this and all of us law abiding should share this. ..
Damn straight. And I respect all the teachers that are armed that aren’t supposed to be I know for a fact there’s countless out there. Im not a teacher but if I was i would break the law to save kids all day.
Every Principle should have a paddle encased on the wall and a gun safe with a Benelli M4
Back in the DAY the paddIes USED BY the Administration and Guidance CounseIors was pretty effective. Having a gun by a trained teacher and a SIGN warning such on every schooI entrance of such shouId reduce or prevent the attacks that our country has been experiencing. I am a Teacher who supports the 2nd Amendment.
@@staralioflundnv rock on
Eric, I am all for what you brought up. I would recommend teachers and staff to be armed. Also, have "mock" simulations (outside of school hours) should be required. I like Rep. Massie and John Lott, who is about 15-20 minutes away from me. The idea would hardly be "prison" and "drills" would be infrequent, maybe like a fire drill? Good video and would work! Why the Dems will not go for it!
Thanks for this. I wonder what percent of schools have armed personnel on campus?
That's why I'm becoming a guardian here in Orlando Florida
In Alabama, those with permits may carry in schools. However, politicians introduced a bill to overturn that! (Carrying in a school without a permit is a felony.)
I’ve had a permit now for 30 yrs, with my first at 19! I carried in a community college I attended, went on to retire from the Army (IN) after 22 yrs. and served in GA LE for ten years!
When I’m at my children’s school, it’s not a gun free zone. Many other parents carry as well! Our schools are relatively safe, NO mass casualty events in our schools, yet politicians are seeking to weaken our schools!
Thanks for your service. Yeah crazy to hear in a southern state has crap too. I am an Okie
They wanna push that NWO agenda
You make a good point.. Thanks!!!
Just here to work that algorithm.
Wonderful! 😊
We need more of this instead of all these pathetic gun control proposals and "assault weapons bans." Especially looking at all of you anti 2nd Amendment states > CT, NY, NJ, CA, etc
LE. You have your public marching orders now. Do your paperwork (and breaks) in the parking lot of a school (or a place of worship). You may unknowingly save lives. And, thank you for your service.
I live down the road from a town named Vidor Tx. Outside their school they have one of the signed in the picture for this video. It says straight out that they are armed and willing to use force to protect the students. This IS the answer.
The other schools here that don’t have that practice, have active police stations in the schools where there are a minimum of 2 cops in school at each time. Usually 2 extra off duty in the schools.
I'm happy that the campus I go to allows you to conceal carry.
I would love to do two video, where an armed person goes into two different school with air soft weapons and see which school was able to save more lives ! (One school have armed teachers or security (have at least 1 gun range every quarter ) vs the other school that is the typical gun free zone )
Here is a BEFORE and AFTER statistics of how many school shootings have occurred since 'Gun Free School Zone act of 1990':
* 1073 injuries or deaths since 1990 when "Gun-Free" zones became Law in schools and 56 Mass Shootings in Schools in 30 years (as of the end of 2020).
* 273 injuries or deaths 5 Mass Shootings for the previous 30 years before before 1990 gun ban in school.
* 617 injuries and deaths in previous 150 years before 1990 and 10 Mass Shootings (today's standard of 3 or more people injured or killed)
Issue with armed school staff is that still makes students nervous. I suspect most students don’t like the idea of Armed staff.
Guaranteed as soon there is a single accidental shooting in a school, that will be the end of armed staff.
Yeah I'm thinking that a locked safe is more practical than a pistol on the hip for a classroom setting.
🙄🤦♂️
My professor during my engineering college days always had a concealed carry including one of the students.
Why can't we just go back to teaching firearms safety in schools.
We had a shooting team in my middle school.
Oh and we didn't have school shootings. If you did no one knew about it and it wasn't national news.
The media is just as guilty as the one committing these crimes. In their popularizing of it.
You are best gun tuber
Off topic but I've got to say, Eric your life changes are not only visible but inspirational. Looking good, brother. No homo. 😆
The interaction between Rep. Bowman and Massie was absolutely embarrassing for him and it perfectly summarizes this whole debate. One side wants to stand on the dead bodies of children to push for gun control and the other side is proposing a fast and easy solution that we know for a fact works. They don't want to hear it though, so they plug their ears and scream. They would rather use these shootings to push for gun control than actually save lives.
Yep the bullying is a Hugh problem. It leads to issues even beyond school.
Ever since my high school was attacked (luckily it failed) by an attempted pipe bomber in 2009, I've been saying that properly trained teachers/school staff should have the ability to carry and/or keep firearms on campus and it would not only stop attacks on schools extremely faster, it would also send a message that would make those campuses are willing to fight back which would in itself be a huge deterrent to any potential attacks in the future to begin with. I went to school in the San Francisco Bay Area so naturally I was in an extremely liberal, anti-gun environment to begin with. When the school opened back up and the teachers opened the subject of what happened and what could be done in the future for discussion... when I, a very prominent and vocal pro 2a individual already, proposed such ideas and concepts of armed staff... you know what I was met with? Extreme ridicule from my teacher and some students (others supported what I said too as well) but not only that, my teacher felt so "uncomfortable" with this proposal and my persistence on the subject the following years that she literally got a legal on campus restraining order on me eventually. She felt that I was somehow "threatening her" or some shit. I never got a clear direct answer as to why, but that's how she felt. It's sad but it is what it is. Also just wanna throw this out there, a sick evil individual that wants to carry out a mass casualty attack on a school or anywhere does not need a gun to do it. Perfect example was the attack on my school with pipe bombs that luckily failed. The attacker also had a number of knives, a machete and a chainsaw with him as well. His plan was to throw the bombs into classrooms and put door wedges on the outside of the doors so no one could open them and then go all Jason Voorhees-Texas Chainsaw Massacre on anyone that stood in his path.
That place stinks. Sorry you had to deal with it.
Another amazing video Eric. If you were the secretary of education, the school shooting problem would be solved TODAY. Keep up the good fight.
It would be great if we could have armed teachers and / or police officers in every school to protect not just the children but also the teachers.
No what would be great is that none of that would be needed. Like it isn't needed in every other country

I'm in a rural area in Pennsylvania, and, here, you can't get into a school unless you tell them who you are, why you're there, then provide your ID so they can see it on the camera. Once you do that, they buzz you in, I believe all of the other doors have mag locks, so they can't be accessed, and since it's rural, the state police do roving patrols at the schools.
Exactly
There are a bunch of veterans that are decorated that would love to protect the children.
Indeed
So you want a bunch of handicapped dudes with PTSD meds and three Article 15’s guarding chimp???!!!!!
Why can’t we have a branch of the military guard schools?
We do. They're veterans, ROTC, and Reserves. They're just "gray men" in civilian clothes attending as students.
I was County Officer 👮♀️ for thirty years and stayed as Reserve Officer for seventeen more. During that time I worked at a Charter School as a Security Supervisor but the Owner of the School told not to carry a gun in the school. What he didn’t know didn’t hurt him, but I felt better. Stayed two years and left.
Yup. Easier when you are LEO, but forgiveness over permission is my usual policy.
I'm kind of jealous. My dad is retired military and LEO, and his enhanced carry permit just shows up in the mail. I saw his notice of renewal, so I asked him about it.
He said that it's free and he never has to take a class. Lucky.
I wouldn't get a permit on principle, but if they just sent me one in the mail, I might utilize it. LoL

Completely agree with arming and training teachers. It worked in quite a few places.
Problem is there is a lot leftist teachers who hate guns as well as the leftist parents. So .. how do you fix that?
I'm sure you recorded this video before the verdict but Matt Hoover was just convicted! Our whole community needs to know about the verdict and that it could happen to any of us.
Yes I support any teacher or school employee who wants to conceal carry in class to do so!
I would also encourage schools to once again teach gun safety and encourage school gun clubs!
They used to be common!
There are photographs from the 1940s through the 1960s of gun ranges on the school grounds and of girls and boys dressed in P.E. clothes practicing with rifles in the schools!

If any teacher carries a concealed weapon in a classroom, might as well be the JROTC instructor.
Yes, I loved mine. Well, I didn't go into the class, but I knew him. He is friends with my cousin, who's also a teacher at my local school funny enough.
Some one brought up the fact that Lee Harvey Oswald used a bolt action WWI antique rifle and got off many rounds at over 100 yards at a moving target and made mostly all upper body hits in a very short time. So if he could do that at a rate comparable to a semi-auto rifle why are they so upset about Semi-auto rifles?
Spurious correlation
Can't wait to see it.
Armed Teachers. Why not. I'm in.
My niece is a teacher, and my sister an assistant teacher. Both agree on being well informed, well armed, and well posted signage that our children are important enough to be well guarded. Lets meet the challenge. Our children are more important than prison inmates. They deserve armed guards in private and teacher forms. Thank you for the video post!
Absolutely 💯!!!
Armed security at sporting events, banks, congress why not schools
^this
because when I was in high school in late-1998, there was an incident that made the local news, where a teacher was violently raped in one of the bottom floor classrooms, as it was mentioned that the rapist (possibly a former student) might've snuck in through one of the fire exits. I didn't witness the actual crime itself, but I definitely was there the day it happened.
And oddly enough, the School Resource Officers that were there didn't even have guns on them.
I work for a big name brand Company, they have a policy saying you cannot have a gun on you while working. I still carry a 380 Ruger mouse gun in an ankle holster and a SCCY 9mm in a shoulder holster since I wear a jacket at work during the day.
You need to get something besides that sccy man. It's an awful company and I would hate for you to have to depend on that to save your or someone elses life. Not talking shit just speaking from experience by living close to where that firearm is produced.

JB wants to forgive student loans instead of hiring Retired and disabled Veterans as security to protect our kids. Give us the job, we will engage!
Give em Hell, Massie!
Imagine that.
Isnt (Davos) Switzerland a place where most teachers are armed, and the population in general has an incredibly high gun possession rate? With one of the lowest violent crime rates in the world, is it any wonder why the world “leaders” always seem to meet in Davos? We use guns to protect politician, celebrities and even banks, wy not use guns to protect our most precious resource? Seems like Switzerland may have figured out this particular problem... not that they don’t have other problems.
At my elementary school in Oakland, we were checked every day for weapons, and if we didn't have one, they gave us one.
That took a turn I was not expecting, but I like it
I've been saying this 4 years. I'm retired from the school board had 15 years in as an electrician and my boss told me this year that in March that whoever has there CCW can carry. All I can said is damn it's about time....
I’m Miami we used to create a space on the school property for a Highway Patrol Officer to put a Mobile Home and live on the school grounds with his Patrol Car parked in the “yard” Was very effective for a few years but then the parents started complaining as the classes graduated and new students came in. So- the school folded and asked the to move out.

How has knowing how to stop a threat and protect kids never been a requirement for teachers? The older I get the more I realize the adults and parents from the past generations have had their heads in their asses.
We had security guards and bars around our high school in san diego in 1987. Montgomery high school.
The 68gca requires officials, medical and legal to report individuals making threats to prevent purchases. In 1992 the phycologist/phycology body felt it was demeaning to place that individual on such list, hence why we are here discussing these events.
