For taking on this most serious responsibility, guardians will be compensated with a one-time $500 stipend. That is what state lawmakers allocated for this position.

$500 for one day seems like a good deal. They can’t force you to keep showing up, right?

The smart guys and the people this program was designed to just give taxpayer money to will 100% duck out after that check clears. The real problem is the sickos who stick around to play Fallujah against teenagers for free.

The Nashville school shooting had an armed staff member, but no one knew who it was. And it was revealed that the armed staff member stayed home the day it got shot up lol

That’s not even enough for a decent gun, spare mags, and a gun belt. To say nothing of like a first aid kit and whatever other crap.

Should be plenty as long as you buy second-hand from a private seller’s trunk in the parking lot of your closest Walmart

To be fair it’s not often a school gets more than one shooter in its history; all the school really needs is one gun and a handful of bullets in case the first misses or doesn’t kill the child, and thankfully children die pretty easy.

(you know I racked my brain for like five minutes and couldn’t think of a single way to say this that didn’t sound ghoulish; that last bit at the end there was just me throwing my hands up and saying ‘let’s embrace the inner ghoul’)

“If you attack a school here in Utah, you’re going to be confronted,” said [Matt] Pennington. “it’s not a soft target anymore.”

just one of those cool things people with regular brains says right before tactically deploying themselves to affect a kinetic response after a family court ruling.

Paying cops to patrol schools and stop shootings won’t work because they just hide in fhe closet. Paying Paul Blart to show up in non-standardized gear will surely save the children.

Idk if there’s even anything worth saying about this, it’s so monumentally silly. Aside from making cynical jokes about how long before one of these dorks guns down a kid, this is just…

Yeah there’s no way getting a bunch of low or non paid ex soldiers to come hang out at schools with guns can possibly go wrong. I definitely can’t think of dozens of ways this is going to get people hurt or killed. Such a foolproof idea
