Plus every one of my public school teachers definitely were fully mentally present, responsible, and never lost their temper.

Kids can be little shits. My seventh grade science teacher Mrs. Steele threw a chair during a tantrum after some kids pushed her too far. She was not let go. Soon after they put her in charge of the musical.

I don’t believe she’d ever shoot a student. I do believe she’d think it was funny to remind the students she and other teachers carry guns when the students got out of hand. I do believe she was irresponsible enough to even pull it out to be funny. I do believe that’s the type of classroom where an accident could happen.
