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.

in a space of children and education, possession of a weapon would be highly inappropriate and schools should encourage peace

The idea of teachers carrying guns isn't about promoting violence, but about ensuring immediate protection if need be. For example, in rural areas where police response time might be slower, a well-trained, armed teacher could potentially save lives in an extreme situation. What alternative methods of protection would you suggest for these situations?
