Those same people have been trying to starve public education to death for years, yet they’d ostensibly be okay with paying for security guards, bullet proof glass and armed teachers at every school in America.

Not really. The most that’s been suggested is just doing away with gun-free zones and allowing teachers to arm themselves. Perhaps covering the cost of a familiarization and safety course. But every wingnut I’ve talked with, when pressed as to whether teachers will be compensated for the new responsibilities, just shrug and say that teachers arming themselves is just an extension of their job.
