Except that's not how it works. If you let more people bring weapons into schools, you will definitely see increasing amounts of weapons being used in schools, even if you're pretending that the weapons are supposed to be only for self-defense.

If you're serious about reducing mass shootings, the globe has shown us that you can do so by reducing the number of guns available in society. It really is that simple. Simple, but not easy, because many Americans love their weapons.
