"As far as I'm concerned, teachers were trained to educate my children — not carry a gun. Even police officers need years of training in hostage situations," said Traci McKay, whose three children are among the 110 students in the red-brick Harrold school. "I don't want my child looking over her shoulder wondering who's carrying a gun."If you think about it, it's the first time for the shooter, too. Still, maybe the school could come up with some sort of waiver for Traci to sign--in case of an armed attack, her children are not to be saved except by responding "Only Ones"...
