The armed teacher protocol would introduce firearms into classrooms yes but they would be secured in the teachers person at all times. The teachers would have to undergo training to properly handle weapon systems though. With this training they would be able to respond to emergency situations much easier than throwing books and staplers at someone carrying a firearm.

Teachers having firearms will lead to the threat carrying the firearm often being the teacher. Even with trainig accidents happen and the chances of children being harmed will increase not decrease. The way to stop shootings in schools is to regulate guns, not supply more.

If we make guns illegal then the good guys that defend people aren’t gonna have guns. But the ones that get them illegally to do illegal things with don’t care if all guns are illegal. At that point why not make all drugs illegal, because they were and are and people still get them.

That's an interesting perspective. It's kind of like saying, "why have speed limits if people are gonna drive fast anyway?" While it's true that some people will always find ways to break the rules, the rules are there to provide a standard and to protect the majority.
