"Armed to Educate" article in the Berkshire View newspaper

[Gibbs]

Just picked this up 'cause of the cover story.



Favorite quote: "...63 out of 88 Ohio counties have participating schools" in the FASTER program (Faculty/Administration Safety Training & Emergency Response) sponsored by the Ohio Buckeye Firearms Foundation.

The first training was open to 24 teachers with concealed carry permits. Over 1000 teachers applied. 26 hours of handgun and emergency medical training, to start.

Here's the e-edition to read for y'all.

Eventually people will get the fact that when you shoot back the bad guys pick someone else to screw with.

That was a really well written article. I wish they hadn't undermined it with that crummy cover image. Right handed teacher open carrying a full size pistol behind his jacket, small of back, no holster for left hand draw? A for writing, F for graphic design.

Excellent point.

Open up the option for teachers who care to carry are allowed, others can choose their own fate.
