Pepper Spray for teachers???

Facing down a dedicated homicidal maniac armed with an array of lethal firearms equipt with a can of pepper spray would qualify you for the Medal of Honor for bravery.. albeit.. awarded posthumously.

One must consider the mindset of the defender..most people have never been under fire. Trained Soldiers are frequently drilled for months and perhaps years to endure the event and sometimes fail when they encounter it. A mild mannered caregiver/teacher is unlikely to provide the defense/offence necessary to find the dusty tazer or cannister, provide adequate cover, locate the attacker and aggressively hit hard enough to stop the attack. The bravery of the Principle at Newtown was extraodinary..apparently she gave it her best effort with her bare hands.
