I Hate Seeing Shootings Happen At Schools

I am an educator. I've spent a huge portion of my life in schools so it feels normal for me to be in a school environment.. I've always liked school. Now that I'm a teacher my husband and I talked about me putting myself in harms way with my career...

Jesus! I can't believe I'm reading this and that it actually makes sense.

YOU'RE A TEACHER! HOW CAN TEACHING EVER BE SYNONYMOUS WITH "PUTTING MYSELF IN HARMS WAY"!!!

When will Americans learn the simple truth that the only solution to the mass killings you keep having is.......GET ALL GUNS OFF YOUR STREETS!

It works in every other civilized country. FACT!

There were 355 mass shootings in America in 2015.

There have been FOUR mass shootings in the UK in my lifetime!

Figure it out America! It ain't difficult!

something has to change that's for sure..
teaching needs not be a hazardous occupation

there was a :social experiment: with the ammunition crisis of 2013.. guns w. no ammo make nice paperweights..convo pieces..clubs if necessary

@cruzenleticia: I feel for you, I honestly do. I've got two cousins who are teachers and the thought of them considering their jobs as "putting themselves in harms way" makes my stomach turn.

And what about those kids???

It's just wrong!

A slight tip to you and other teachers: Don't ignore the kids that seem to be withdrawn from other kids. As someone that planned to commit a school shooting (I was bullied, but the teachers, and even principal, looked the other way), all I needed was SOMEONE to help me. Luckily, I got myself expelled from school before it got to that point.

TL;DR, Pay special attention to those that keep to themselves.

yes we went over that in a classroom portion of the workshop..there has been a correlation between anti depressant medications and perpetraters but that may reflect that the student may have been a victim in the past or returnees from the middle east wars
domestic terrorism and membership in violent groups..
