Hello world!

After the shooting in Parkland Florida, the Trump administration wants a federal commission on school safety. Betsy Devos, the Secretary of Education, wants schools to use their money to purchase guns. These guns would be put in the hands of the school’s teachers, who will most likely be untrained. The Student Support and Academic Enrichment grant is a flexible billing funding source to provide a well-rounded education, improve the conditions of the school, and improve the use of technology. This money should do exactly that, but Ms. Devos would like that money to be spent arming the teachers. The government should work on control and regulation on guns, to make it harder for people with mental issues to get guns. Putting guns in the hands of teachers and school staff is endangering the safety of the people in the school. What happens if a student steals the teachers gun? What happens when the police show up and see a teacher with a gun? Since the tragic Sandy Hook shooting, there has been over two hundred school shooting. Most of the shooters are getting their guns from their home, gun control can help prevent them from accessing guns. We are living in a country that cares more about guns than children’s lives.
