As it is well established in the law that the police have no duty to protect citizens why would you want to limit the options that teachers have to defend themselves. Your statement also fails to recognize the fact that in many cases the presence of a law abiding citizen carrying a weapon serves as a deterent even when it is not used such as in the mall shooting in Oregon where a nutjob retreated to a stairwell and killed himself after a mall shopper with a legal weapon presented himself. Had the armed citizen not been there it is likely that the shooter would have continued his shooting spree.
