About armed teachers and SWAT response — remember the slaying in Wichita of an innocent man on his own porch, when the SWAT team was responding to a hoax hostage situation?

The SWAT member who fired was told he was responding to a hostage situation, and he went ahead and “fired after seeing Finch raise then drop his hands near his waistband. Finch was unarmed.” Link

And they want untrained or poorly trained or half-trained teachers making those same kind of split-second decisions?

The utter insanity of this is just too bizarre to accept as reality.
