    Betsy DeVos suggested she won't stand in the way of school districts spending federal funds to buy guns to protect themselves and their students.https://usat.ly/2NE0kCe

        Schools need better funding, not more guns. Schools are failing and you want to keep the students in fear. I knew Republicans were anti-education, but you don't want kids going to school at all.

        Keeping the people uneducated makes it easier to control and manipulate them

        As a retired teacher my advice to you is to get out while the getting is good.

        If they have enough money to buy guns, then there is NO reason teachers need to be buying supplies for their classrooms...

        Instead of buying Why don’t you get the money you have and give to district for medical insurance, pension, and better pay and better system.

        Schools need funds and teachers need funds and better pay. They don't need guns. This is simply someone who has zero understanding of and empathy for the hurdles and constraints schools and teachers face every day. Her interest seems to be in anything but actual education.

        yet again, so obvious she has never worked in a school. this school librarian of 21 years can think of more urgent needs to be funded.

        Here’s a thought. Do not stand in the way of school districts spending federal funds on things like current textbooks, building repairs, or teacher and support staff salaries. #HowBoutDat

        Wonder how long it will be until depressed or angry student grabs a teachers gun and shoots someone with it?

        Someone needs to investigate any financial interest she has in gun manufacturers. This is a money funnel from taxpayers to gun manufacturers.
