Should teachers be allowed to carry guns at school?
Yes, schools should require at least one teacher or security guard to be armed
It may make them feel unsafe and have the opposite effect?

agree, it could also be a threat that teachers could also not have the best mental health and also decide to use the gun twards or with the students in the classroom.
Security guards have the right to be armed because they are trained in the field and it is easier for them to keep their weapons out of the wrong hands. Although teachers can be properly trained, it is not a good idea to give them weapons because a student could get their hands on it and cause an accident.

Arming teachers is a band-aid solution to a much deeper and more complex cultural problem. While this solution aims to ensure that schools are not soft targets, arming teachers without a proper vetting process could potentially lead to an increase in accidental gun deaths in schools, even in rare cases during which the deployment of a firearm would be useful to defend the lives of students.

I don't think intimidating children, who have little experience with managing their emotions, is the right answer. Best case scenario, they're traumatized. What is the teacher supposed to do if the child decides to charge/fight them?
@9HYTFLHRepublican5mos5MO
yes. i also think that if teacher have guns they are also at risk of being mentally unstable and possibly use the gun themselves.
