This survey from Gallup should shut up those who claim teachers don't want to carry guns. From what I understand this may even be slightly higher a percentage than the average percent of concealed carriers (except for Constitional Carry states for which there isn't comprehensive data).

While 18% doesn't sound like a majority it is actually quite huge. Given 3.2 million teachers that translates to about 570,000 teachers wanting to carry.

And, that is just the teachers brave enough to report on how they REALLY feel.

Bet the real percentage who would carry to protect kids is substantially higher than reported.

Great point, with political monoforming in that profession, the number is shockingly high and likely even higher due to peer pressure silencing others.

Close to one in five ain’t bad.

Even better would be not knowing which one in five it is.

Let's not forget the other staff - not just teachers will rise to the occasion.

Those numbers aren't equally dispersed, keep that in mind... You might have a bunch of schools in Alabama skewing that result, because I can all but guarantee most of the NE won't want them.

Notice, no school shootings in the ghetto? It's because they're already outgunned and they know it.....

18% is more than sufficient. All you need is a deterrent. If a wanna-be shooter knows that someone might return fire, they will likely choose a gun-free zone instead.

My wife, grade scoole teacher, and several others in her school want to carry. They say it would be better than just locking their door and being a human sheild.
