Louisiana May be Close to Concealed Carry Without Permit.

No like 1 LEO SRO per 100 students in every school. Nothing like the Uvalde situation.
Do Not confuse untrained teachers with qualified LEO SRO.

I do think this however is a good solution. I would like to see more training involved and I’m sure that would happen. At least I hope it would.

Doing away with gun free zones would likely also help. What if a teacher is an avid shooter and has a ccw permit? Why should they not be allowed to carry if they please?

It could be argued that your average member here is probably more qualified to carry a sidearms than most leo.

What are you basing your opinion on? Are you familiar with POST training standards and how they are followed across the thousands of police agencies in the US? (Doubtful) Are you familiar with most of the members' training on this site? (Doubtful)

I would argue that is a very incorrect and uninformed statement. It's an over-generalization that I would equate to something along the lines of "most white police officers want to shoot unarmed black citizens." And I get it, it's an opinion, but to be relevant, opinions can, and should, be based on some facts, and my opinion is that there's no way you could have enough facts to back that up.

Unqualified untrained teachers should not be armed. Leave the policing to armed qualified LEO.

I agree that unqualified and untrained teachers should not be armed. But why not allow qualified and trained teachers arm themselves if they so desire?

Bump for any additional info? What’s the status in this. Is it still in works?

The legislature has adjourned. It will have to be refiled during the next session.

Did you read what the bill would do? It specifically allows for only qualified and trained teachers to carry. I would like to see regular psych evals for teacher that carry though. A teacher that regularly has mental break downs is not a teacher that should be armed in class. Kids are becoming worse and I’m sure there will be a teacher that loses it. If American culture wasn’t so wrecked, I’d be happy with kids above a certain age carrying but that couldn’t be done with how things are currently.

Read krotsman's post #122 directly above your post.

How about SB 143

It was sent to the governor. Did he veto or not sign and let it pass

You’re going to have to explain how that post has anything to do with what I said.

Doesn’t appear to have been vetoed yet. If it’s something that looks veto proof then Edwards probably won’t veto it and let it die on his desk instead.

HB37 37(permitless carry) shows to have died in the chamber that it was currently in. In my opinion it probably died bc of the mass shootings that happened recently probably made all the politicians skiddish to pass any pro 2a legislation. If you want this law then send an email, letter or call you rep/senator and tell them(calmly) that this stop of HB37 is unacceptable and needs to get passed.

Like the exact reason it should be alive and well.. yeah that makes sense. Politics…

But that’s not working out too well nowadays…

Because no one has a LEO for every 100 people in the schools. School Boards should Pony Up $ for more SRO's.

They'll always ask for more taxes to cover this or that and I'll vote no every single time. They can't do right with the money they steal from us already, why should anyone be ok with giving more.
