I agree with this point of view. Students and teachers need to be prepared to shoot back whether it is a wacko student or whether it is some kind of terrorist. This way more people will stay alive in the end. I know this point of view likely would horrify people on the East coast but people west of the Mississippi and in the south would understand this more because of the wide open spaces we live in. When police or sheriffs are 50 to 100 miles away you are the only law for 1/2 hour to an hour or more if anything happens. So, making citizen arrests or shooting shooters before they kill or shoot too many will become more common now on colleges and schools all over the U.S. where legal.

Ben Carson: Gun-Free Campuses Lead to Danger

On October 6 the Christian Science Monitor published an
interview with Republican presidential hopeful Ben Carson in which he
stressed that campus carry is an expression of liberty and warned that
banning guns from campuses leads to danger.
These words come in the wake of a heinous attack on the gun-free campus of Umpqua Community College, in which a gunman was able to shoot repeatedly without the threat of an immediate armed response.
According to the Christian Science Monitor, Carson suggested gun-free campuses invite trouble rather than diminish it. And he said, “[Gunmen] aren’t likely to go into a place where they are likely to get shot.”
When Carson made these points, he was not just talking about colleges or universities, but of K-12 schools as well.
In addition to the dangers posed by gun-free campuses, Carson also stressed that the right to be armed is part of our freedom and said “legal guns…are one of our liberties.”
Carson also took time to tell the Monitor he opposes an “assault weapons” ban because such a ban would leave the citizenry in danger of facing tyranny instead of keeping them in a position where they could defend their lives against criminals or “fight back…against an aggressive government.”
