I have to wonder why the NRA is so against mental health examinations and the ownership of guns. Maybe they are worried that their membership may suddenly halve.

Saint Obama did nothing about it at the start of his time in office when he had both houses and enough votes for the 61 Threshold but it’s trump who the bad guyTrump signed for the removal for Obama era ban that would have added 75000 names to a list of those unsuitable for gun ownership due to mental health issues.
The NRA distorted the facts of it (lied) and claimed it prevented elderly men and women.

He had been trained for this type of incident
His job ?Yes, trained. He isn't a machine programmed to react.

Yes, I am an adult, a man, and yes I do put others first, but I'm also a realist and I've realised people are not predictable.
Ah huh. Your right, I'm not judging others 'metal' or 'moral fibre' or 'emotional fibre' by my own 'girly moral fibre' but you are!
Your more than happy to project what you THINK someone should do in such a situation.
Your very confident in your abilities. You or I unless placed in the EXACT same situation of actually hearing the thud and ring of a high power assault rifle thundering out rounds right there and then CANNOT know how to react.
It's commendable that you had to act in the way you did at 16, successfully too as your still alive but also its sad to be faced with such a situation, but don't you think that being threatened with a gun is slightly different from actually being there hearing the screams and deafening blarges of gunfire?
sh!t would get very real very fooking quick.
You and your father survived your ordeal but wouldn't it been better not to been threatened with a gun at all?
It's good to know heroes still exist as coming from a family farm on the Irish border our family have never had close friends or family shot to pieces or our moral fibre tested.
Trump didn’t,one of the members of the ordinance came up with it if you had watched the live show not that you would of known if you only watch what the media want you to seeI would add Obama didn’t come up with crackpot idea of arming teachers after any of the attacks that took place on his watch. I guess American schools and universities will just have to cough up to turn themselves into fortresses complete with there own trained firearms officers. Maybe the NRA would sponsor such a scheme?

All I see is someone only too willing to blame circumstances for lack of morality.
You're a whimp and should never be put in a position where others need to rely on you.
Plenty of people can and do put their lives at risk.
If they didn't people like you would spend most of your lives running and hiding.
Trump didnt say all teachers...only willing ones with prior millitary or law enforcement back grounds....personally i still dont believe a good idea.
For the UK yes I would agree with you.
I have never lived in the USA but I do know there are wildly different laws and culture.
Such as some states allowing people to carry concealed guns, metal detectors & guards on schools and the rights to protect property using arms - and of course the prevailance of arms in crime.
So yes, in the UK it makes sense not to have armed teachers .. in the USA ? I don't know, I would have thought people couldn't feasibly get shot for knocking on a door but it happens in the USA.
