Can anybody point out to me a single case of a civilized country in which the teachers are armed?
Maybe they would be motivated by "the small bonuses" they get for carrying a piece at school.

USA. At least in community colleges in Colorado, instructors can carry. I never did but colleagues of mine did.
Anyone who was trained and took an oath to protect and . . . never mind.

As usual you forgot to read and quote most of the comment. Plenty of unregistered guns available. And here in America there always will be.
You're right it isn't. But I think common sense would tell you in this circumstance you need to eliminate the threat. Not run from it. Several armed teachers would be extraordinarily distracting to one gunman.

If you are talking about sssi’s they are being phased out as a treatment due to horrible side effects and lack of positive effect.

yep,, for about 3 seconds until they are ventilated. 223 will go thru a door, lockers, desks, etc. 9mm won't.

I taught at a community college so that is all I can speak to with first hand knowledge. It was a pretty big case that went to the CO Supreme Court, maybe sometime around 2010? I THINK the ruling also applied to CU and CSU, just can't say for sure.

Here's a link that lists the Colorado institutions where you can conceal carry, and it does include CU and CSU:

You are thinking of a .308 and most likely the cop had a .40cal. One hollow point would have probably put that kid on his ass. One clear shot would have been all that was needed.
