Teachers must have the right to carry concealed firearms because the safety of their students lies in their hands. How is a teacher supposed to protect his or her students from a criminal with a gun when the teacher does not have a gun? Is the teacher going to reason with the killer? No, the teacher will not successfully reason with a killer. Obviously, the teacher cannot overpower the killer, while the killer has a handgun or other type of firearm, either. To be able to effectively defend the students’ lives, the teacher needs to carry and wield a firearm: “if there were a school shooting and anyone had something to help slow down or stop the attack, I don’t see how it can be worse than letting a psychopath run loose with a gun and nothing to slow them down” (Youcancarry.com). I believe that teachers should be required to carry a concealed firearm on college campuses and/or school
