What could go wrong?

Arming schools. What a bat-sh*t backward country!

There's never been a mass shooting where security or law enforcement has an AR-15.

Why? Aren’t they already “Gun Free Zones”?

High school phys ed should include gun safety and marksmanship training, and they should issue each student a gun upon graduating.

They’d better hire somebody that knows how to use one😸

Not exactly a one-shot, one-kill weapon.

Will they also be providing storage compliant with UFC 4-215-01 Armories And Arms Rooms?

What could go wrong?

It's a death cult. The media needs to report it correctly.

If the bad guys know equal fire power awaits them, they’ll go elsewhere. Never see attacks like this in a sports arena or government building. Why? Metal detectors and armed guards.

F’cking crazy. Hope teachers and women flee these draconian States!!

The abject failure of society in North Carolina.

So North Carolina is Pro mass shooting

That is not a good idea at all🙄

And the parents there are happy with that?

So there's easy access for that school shooter who didn't pass the background check.

They’ll expect teachers to buy the bullets with their own money.

Now wait for a nutcase kid to take it and wrack havok

You realize that the rest of the developed world think that the US (mainly the red states) has gone absolutely fucking insane over their gun obsession.

When looking at buying a house you have to ask, 'so what's the school districts policy on AR-15's in the schools?' Nice.

Aha … and where do they intend to place them - in lockers for safety? To regulate the guns?

100% supported by the NRA, endorsed and funded? How dystopian .... Nothing like a little NRA and ultimately the Military industrial complex to bring you 'home grown war turf' in your back yard...

Have they approved knives and machetes for each classroom? If not, why not?

Can’t imagine how that could go wrong.

Hell on earth.

In the event the shooter forget his at home?

No more 'Bring Your Own Gun' to mass shootings in North Carolina. Okey-dokey.

It's like putting more sharks in the water to reduce shark attacks

Very smart idea to protect our kids. Hopefully the people trained to use them will have the courage unlike Uvalde police.

Yet you can’t have one at a Trump rally

Is this TheOnion ?

What could go wrong...

Oh no those poor babies

Good God almighty, this country is fucking crazy.

What could go wrong...

Just lovely. Let me guess, teachers will have inservices on how to use them.

What could possibly go wrong. 🤔🇺🇸 thenraisaterroristorganization

Who needs police. Let the teachers do their job too.

So a guy intent on dying that day starts the shooting with one AR and a few clips and by the time he's finished he's got 8 or 9 ARs and 50 clips.

Just don't give those teachers library books. They can't be trusted with those. 🙄🙄🙄

...and who will be task with using them the canteen folks or the librarians?

Yea, that totally makes sense.....let's wait UNTIL the gunman enters the school before finding a solution to the ongoing problem....

Meaning, they’re afraid of losing the midterms.

Oh good, that way the shooters don’t have to bother stopping by Walmart to pick up their weapons.

VegasVisions Do we get to vote on this first? That is insane.😩

Please tell me this is a joke or bait

Cutting out the middle man...come directly to school for your assault rifle; skip the line at the gun dealer

Completely absurd to everyone outside America.

I’ll bet that works

Is ammo going to be added to the student supplies checklist?

I mean what could go wrong, right?

That school district needs some new people.

hasanthehun

LOL. This is obviously not true. The only people who would give weapons this expensive away for free are terrorists. It's free bc schools have no money, ask teachers. The people are hungry, do you give them many food? Or one food and many weapons to fight for the one food?

This is utterly stupid.

Ammosexual fantasy lol hope parents pull their kids for remote options before someone gets shot for not doing or not allowing someone to copy homework. I wonder how many nails the government will put into the coffin of education.

Which happens first?

More steps towards dystopia. Yay

The GOP solution to gun violence = more guns. Makes total sense….. 🙄 Regardless of what politics you subscribe to.. I know the average person knows deep down inside that this is just flat out wrong, makes zero sense, and not a real solution. VoteBlue2022

Shooters will be thrilled. They already have a weapon waiting for them at their preferred location.

What could possibly go wrong?!? RightWingStupidity

This will be great for teachers like mine who were convicted of raping their students. Can’t wait to see what guys like our football coach who was also our health teacher, who just showed us movies & appointed a different girl to fetch his coffee for him everyday does with this.

Oh, well that's going to solve everything. Glad we figured out this whole problem. Everyone will go back to living your perfect life now

What could possibly go wrong? This is by far thé worst solution imaginable to keep children and teachers safe at their schools. What are they thinking in North Carolina?

Are there any large population centers with diverse cultures, regardless of state, that even lean Republican?

Kinda like stocking gasoline in case of arson. 🧐

This is so joke right

Elise Stefanik’s hisband must be sooooo happy

NRA must be laughing all the way to the bank.

When I was in school, the government used to ensure that we had books. ¯\\_(ツ)_/¯

Caps lock because clearly saying this at reasonable volume doesn't penetrate... THE AMOUNT OF FUCKING GUNS EVERYWHERE IS THE FUCKING PROBLEM! STOP PUTTING FUCKING GUNS EVERYWHERE AND MAYBE, JUST MAYBE, YOUR KIDS WILL SURVIVE SCHOOL RATHER THAN BEING BRUTALLY MURDERED! *sigh*

But there's no money for new air purifiers.

Good, easier to get a refill when you clear your ammo!!

oh what could POSSIBLY go wrong?

Cool and normal.

This makes sense to simpletons. It’s like injecting bleach to kill covid.

So now the shooter won't even have to bring his own gun?...

Well that's one way to cut the effort for mass shooters to get access to guns.

That's law and order for ya. Should solve the problem. LOL

how is this not an onion article lmao

Yeah. The lack of guns is why the Uvalde police were circle jerking in the hallway instead of stopping kids from being slaughtered.

Why is it always an AR15?

OK, now picture abusive or predatory teachers who happen to be armed. Most teachers are heroes but there are bad actors in every occupation.

It’s called a deterrent. It will work.

Stupidity unbound in NC…

absolutely brilliant piece of public policy 👍

Lol how fucked up is north carolina!

Hahah just curious.. what's the plan when a crazed teacher/student gets into the gun cabinet?

I can only tell you, viewed by the other western democracies this looks... well I think you can imagine how it looks.

So an arsenal stored at a school what could possibly go wrong 🙄

Like watching a country drink to cope with alcoholism

i see my submission for 'smartest idea ever' was accepted. waiting on my $15 prize.

At this point, I’ll take more secure doors. Yikes.

So they will kill everybody rather than with a single, targeted shot?

Thoughts and prayers, and AR15…

WTF is wrong with these people?!?!?!

Oh yeah this won’t turn out horribly 🙄

They got money for AR-15s but teachers dont have all the supplies they need? How does this help children? howdoesthishelp

After putting AR-15s in every school, next they'll put AR-15s in every shop, mall, church, synagogue, park, hospital... more guns...

Some school employers also have issues. Just saying.

Good deterrent! I haven’t heatd of a better idea. Harsh language isn’t working

Gotta love the Confederacy…

North Carolina County Hopes AR-15s Inside Schools Will Stop ShootingsThe rifles will be inside safes along with 'breaching tools,' according to Madison County Sheriff Buddy Harwood. 🤦🏽‍♂️😔 The very guns that are killing are children….they want to put them in the schools. This is todays Republican Party. If they’re in a place where teachers can get to them in time to help in an emergency, they’re in a place an angry student can get to one. I can’t believe we aren’t at the point where we realize how fast these things happen by now. There’s no time to unlock a safe.
