Armed security guards in schools is NOT going to become the party line of the right. The radical idea that there should be a federal mandate for public schools to hire an armed security guards is fiscally irresponsible, a foolish escalation of the current situation, and is not in line with conservatism. Fiscally irresponsible. Most school districts are funded by taxing the residents of the zip code or district. Districts will be challenged to fund salaries of guards, management, armory logistics, licensing fees, and training.just because it works in Gloucester Va doesn't mean that it will work in Beaver Falls MO pop 4000, or Lancaster PA where 10 where 10 school children were murdered execution style in 2006.
