Trained and armed teachers is the best way to avoid an active shooter in our schools. Crazy killers look for soft targets, not places with lots of people shooting back at them while waiting for the police to show up. We cannot count on the police, even RSOs in the building, to be there in time.

Adam

Only a matter of time before a teacher uses the gun to shoot kids and other staff. Or a kid gets hold of the gun and uses it to murder kids and staff.

Harry D

Same with RSO. Civilians with concealed carry licenses have a better record than police. It a teacher caps a kid, think how much better behaved the rest of the class will be. :)

It starts with the parents/caretakers.

It starts with some of the parents and caretakers.

The Constitution should be the bedrock of our democracy, not a 50.000001% out-of-state dark money, pay petition gathers and buy an election with false advertising gimmick. It should take way more signatures to get on the ballot and 75% of the vote during a presidential election for a change. FJB

It's too easy under current law.

Max DeYoung

It should be made more difficult to amend, this will preserve it's strength.

It's a power grab. Anyone can see that.

Harry D

Grabbing power away from the out-of-state dark money liberals who can't get their simps elected to the legislature and giving power back to the people where it belongs.

Timothy Johnson

Because the Republicans want to control the voters instead of the voters controlling the government.

Harry D

You can't possibly believe that. Everyone knows these initiative petitions are bought and paid for by out-of-state special interests who are very well funded. Constitutions should only be amended on rare occasions and it should be difficult to do, not easy to buy.

AlGore was RIGHT! Western capitalists, with their evil corporations, have caused massive man-made global warming, resulting in drought across USA. They must immediately stop producing all greenhouse gases, retire internal combustion engines & give lots of $$$ to liberals to fix the problem. FJB
