<p class="ecxMsoNormal">Training to become a cop in Idaho is 10 weeks making time not
much of an issue. There are quite a few things covered in POST that a school
guard would not need training in (pursuit driving, crime scene investigation,
etc. ) further reducing the time needed to get qualified people in place.
Utilizing vets who were MP's or members of security detachments along with
retired police officers would be prime candidates for positions such as
this.</p></div>

Assistant Director of the FBI on CNN today explaining why this cannot be

education militia, and the number of qualified people available for those
positions. This is a bad idea that does not stand a chance of getting passed.

could be implemented, regulated, and enforced much more easily than gun control,
gun bans, etc. Armed security guards could be subjected to more rigorous
background and mental heath checks plus mandatory training and licensing without
having that pesky 2nd Amendment coming into the mix. Somewhat similar to
how we supposedly have air marshalls on some flights. This might be one of
the very few things that the Republicans would actually be OK to put on the
fragile shoulders of tax paying individuals and businesses.</p>
