Teachers packing heat in Keene Independent School District was voted on at a recent school board meeting. The safety once found in small town America is no more and it is up to the citizen to be vigilant, especially when responsible for the safety and well being of kids.
Keene ISD superintendent, Ricky Stephens said, “That old mentality of ‘it can’t happen here’ has started to leave a lot of small towns.”
So much has quickly changed in the world that policy must change as well. Stephens commented, “If you’d asked me nine years ago, 10 years ago, whether I ever would’ve been for it, I would’ve said ‘no’.”
Every mass shooting that has taken place in the recent past has occurred in a gun-free zone. The children and teachers at schools are sitting ducks and Keene ISD recognizes a need to create policy to reflect the times and protect the students.

Good for you. Protect the innocent students
Awesome.
While that is all fine and good… This Nation needs to address its crazy problem and its thug problem.
Yeah but what if the teacher snaps and kills the kids
WTG Texas.
But…Where does it stop? The postman (And Women)? The ice cream truck driver? Garbage men (And Women)? This is getting ridiculous…
I would be all for a competent teacher carrying in my childrens school.
Good
Well that’s one school district that you won’t hear about a mass shooting happening. Good job Texas
Good. Texas has common sense.
