Barron Trumps school signs open letter asking his dad to act on gun violence, oppose arming teacher

BARRON TRUMP’S SCHOOL SIGNS OPEN LETTER ASKING HIS DAD TO ACT ON GUN VIOLENCE, OPPOSE ARMING TEACHERS
BY JASON LE MIERE ON 3/14/18 AT 3:12 PM


“We urge our president, our Congress, and our state leaders to enact specific, rigorous measures to reduce gun violence in our society, particularly in our schools,” read the letter, which was signed by St. Andrew’s Episcopal School head Robert Kosasky.

“We need a robust system of registration and background checks, with a particular eye toward weapons capable of rapidly firing a vast number of deadly shots. We need stronger mental health services and more effective communication among agencies responsible for the well-being of children, adults and families. What we do not need is to arm our teachers with guns, which is dangerous and antithetical to our profession as educators.”
