Very few teachers are exceptional.. here's a video interview with one. (WARNING! It's about GUNS!)
I’m glad it’s being called a gun, firearm would be accepted, instead of a weapon. Firearms are tools and only after a gun is used to dispatch someone is it called a weapon. You can tell a lot from a internet site by the way it uses words to describe items or people. Have a good day.

The issue was about teachers, teachers not happy to remain helpless.
It wasn't about what we should call an instrument that fires a projectile.
Wow, calm down, I read the article and that was my first thought was on explaining to the teachers on what they were firing were not weapons but firearms.

You totally missed the focus of the article. Period.
No need for anyone 'calming down', you simply missed the real reason for the entire article and the video/interview.
Did you watch/listen to the interview? If you did watch and listen and know about the issue of teachers getting the courage to actually carry concealed, then well, I guess I wasted my time.
One of my family member is a retired teacher, and one of my first professional jobs was a Police Officer at a school district, I know that some teachers have what it takes to be responsible, while other don’t. I would have gone in and neutralize the threat. Nuff said.

Well, good on ya, and thank God for your dedicated education-type uncle... but this was not about YOU or your uncle, you see, it was about something larger-- teachers willing to go through the rigors and responsibilities to arm themselves in order to
protect their 'charges'... their students.Most teachers, you see, positively wilt- suffer from the 'vapors' when the word 'gun' is flashed before them, or a student makes a 'gun' with his fingers, or bites his slice of bread so that it resembles a gun.
