I am an avid gun rights person but this is the best of all solutions and although it would not completely stop something like this from happening it would go a long enough way that we would not need guns on our school ground at all. It is a societal problem that has stemed from kids growing up without their parents or without the guidence and supervision of their parents. Or parents that want to be their kids buddy instead of the teacher and diciplinarian. Another major cause is all the promotion of disrespect , violance etc. etc. that plagues every aspect of society now. And worst of all our leaders and sports figures break laws right in our faces now and do not get punished as we would. It is a total breakdown in our society that has brought this about and having a gun on campus could take out the immediate threat it does not go to fixing the actual problem.
