Authoritarianism

Strongly agree

Yes, schools should require at least one teacher or security guard to be armed

This answer aligns well with the authoritarian emphasis on security and order, as it requires at least one armed individual at each school. The requirement could be seen as a way to ensure a baseline level of security, which would likely be appealing to an authoritarian perspective.

Agree

No, hire professionally trained security guards instead

Hiring professionally trained security guards aligns with the authoritarian preference for strong security measures. However, this answer does not specify any requirements or regulations for the security guards, which might make it slightly less appealing than Answer 4, which explicitly requires at least one armed individual at each school.

Slightly disagree

No, this would increase the risk of accidental shootings

While the concern for accidental shootings might resonate with some authoritarian perspectives, the focus on potential negative consequences rather than the potential benefits of increased security might make this answer less appealing overall.

Disagree

No

Authoritarianism tends to prioritize security and order, so a blanket ban on teachers carrying guns might be seen as a missed opportunity to increase security. However, some authoritarian regimes might prefer to have only trained professionals handle firearms, making this answer somewhat appealing.
