Bingo.
I think rather than whether we should arm students or not, a more important question is: why does society create people willing to walk into a school and shoot 30 people before killing themselves?

Well the guy was on antidepressants and britian banned anti depressants for children under 18 because of the risk of suickide/homocide, so I would make a bold hypothesis and say maybe,uh, drugs?

Really? The answer is that simple? All the high school shootings were simply the result of drug use? But then why doesn't Amsterdam have the highest rate of school shootings per capita? Were all the shooters on some form of anti-depressants? Clearly, they all had mental issues. But that is part of a bigger picture. To chalk it up to drug use is too simplistic.
On another note, why the hell are we selling anti-depressants that make ppl homicidal?
