School District Approves Armed
Teachers, Provides the Handguns

By AWR Hawkins. December 20th 2015

On December 16, school board members in Keene, Texas, voted not simply to allow armed teachers, but also to provide the handguns teachers will carry.

Ironically, the effort was supported by Keene Independent School District (ISD) superintendent Ricky Stephens, who opposed arming teachers when hired three years ago. "Now he says the world has changed and so has his opinion."

According to Fox 5, Keene ISD members "approved a policy that would allow a few select staff members inside its four campuses to carry a gun."......

At last, some more moves in the right direction it seems. The more the 'gun-free-zone' problem gets diluted the better, if only more establishments would realize the potential benefits towards mitigating an armed attack by having armed personnel on hand. No amount of just "active shooter' drills will on their own serve to prevent carnage, as neither will simply waiting for law enforcement to arrive. "When seconds count."
