Ah, American exceptionalism!

From CNN:

A teacher accidentally discharged a firearm while teaching a public safety class, injuring one student at a Northern California school on Tuesday, police said.

Dennis Alexander, who is Seaside City's mayor pro tem and a reserve officer with the Sand City Police Department, was teaching a lesson at Seaside High School in Seaside when he pointed his gun into the ceiling and accidentally fired it, said Abdul Pridgen, the city's police chief.

A 17-year-old student was injured by a bullet fragment or by debris that fell from the ceiling, Pridgen said.


So a teacher, who is also the mayor and a reserve police officer, accidently discharges a firearm in class. I can't wait until we have tens of thousands of armed teachers. It's going to be so much safer.

It's strange. Many of the same people who distrust teachers in "government schools" suddenly trust them enough to arm them.
