Trump Calls For Trained and Armed Teachers In Every School


2,224 views

Just days after a transgender opened fire inside a Christian school killing three children and three adults, President Trump has a solution to end the violence in schools.

As the left calls for tighter gun laws, Trump is advocating for the opposite and is calling forĀ  teachers to be armed and trained.

As some of you may know, most schools in the United States are “gun free zones” due to the Gun-Free School Zones Act of 1990.

Only authorized figures are allowed to carry in school zones which means every time a school shooting occurs teachers and students are defenseless but Trump wants to end that.

Trump would also praise the Nashville police department’s response to the school shooting.

Listen here:

This isn’t the first time Trump called for teachers to be armed and trained.

Last year he called for the same thing.

Check out what the Daily Mail reported:

President Donald Trump called for an overhaul of school security in the aftermath of the Uvalde shooting and demanded that teachers be armed during a speech to National Rifle Association members on Friday.

‘Surely we can all agree our schools should not be the softest target our school should be the single hardest target in our country,’ he said to applause.

‘And that’s why as part of a comprehensive school safety plan, it’s time to finally allow highly trained teachers to safely and discreetly concealed carry, let them concealed carry.’

His speech came three days after 19 children and two teachers were shot dead at Robb Elementary School, less than 300 miles away from the NRA meeting in Houston, Texas.

The result is another moment of deep reflection as a nation mourns the dead and wonders how to prevent future attacks.

But while protesters outside demanded tougher restrictions on deadly firearms, Trump followed other Republicans in insisting that guns in the hand of law-abiding citizens were the best way to tackle violent crime.
