[QUOTE="Poke78, post: 2021176, member: 4333"] Can you be specific about what program should be de-funded to provide money for this? Why are you choosing that program to de-fund? Alternatively, how would you raise new taxes to support schools implementing your plan? Training is not as inexpensive as you've represented and it has continuing costs. YouTube has a video on Active Shooter Training: [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NbR9TDL4twU[/url] This was developed as a response to what was observed at Columbine with officers waiting outside to enter as a team rather than moving to engage as they came on scene. I seriously doubt that training is given away for the rates you've quoted. Harrold TX is a 200-student K-12 district in the middle of nowhere that has a lesson for us about the silliness of "gun-free zones", aka criminal empowerment zones. Actually, this is an excellent and simple model where the basic premise of our basic human right to self-defense is put into practice without overthinking the approach. I guess that's what I'm trying to say when asking you about funding, taxes, program costs, etc. I believe your complex proposal only lends credence to the anti-gun crew that would have us believe the use of tools for self-defense may only be allowed to those they've deemed special in some way. There are examples (poorly covered by most media) of how what could have become shooting sprees were cut off by one capable defensive shooter that were simply in place with the right hardware and frame of mind to stop the advance of a criminal.
