A school teacher,
that is less physically capable than a
Violent Student, is the norm.
So using the
"minimum amount of force necessary to stop the assault" would be a stretch.
AND, that teacher, would have to PROVE,
beyond any shadow of a doubt,
they believed their life was in danger,
and no way else, except striking the Student back,
would save their life.
They cannot Stab back.
They are NOT ALLOWED to have a knife.
A Student with a knife,
has a distinct advantage over someone without.
They cannot shoot back.
They are NOT ALLOWED to have a Gun.
A Student with a Gun,
trumps all physical differences.
"... Incorrect.
No teacher anywhere has to allow a student
to murder them ..."Golly Gee, If a Student is bigger and stronger than the Teacher.
Or if the Student has a knife, gun, baseball bat, hockey stick, etc.
Don't think the, teacher, has much choice.
"...Just be honest and say that,
not allowing a teacher to be armed,
greatly reduces their ability
to defend themselves and others,
especially in events
where the assailant is armed
with a weapon of their own.."Great Idea,
instead of you saying:
"... No teacher anywhere
has to allow a student to murder them.
They can defend themselves..."
