Kentucky following Wyoming's lead on armed teachers? :: 02/23/2014

It took police roughly five minutes to respond to 911 calls in Newtown, Conn., when Adam Lanza burst into Sandy Hook Elementary School and began his killing spree.

In response to the shock of the Newtown incident, a group in Kentucky wants to train volunteer school officials to carry weapons in schools to give teachers an immediate way to protect children against violent intruders.

"The saying goes, when seconds count the police are only minutes away," Joe Kalil, the Kentucky Constable and 737 airline pilot heading up the effort, told TheBlaze.

Pennsylvania needs to respond in kind. Call your School Board.
