Some Florida teachers can now carry guns inside the classroom
Source: CBS News
Starting Tuesday, a controversial law will allow some teachers in Florida to carry guns inside the classroom. The bill was initially passed in response to the Parkland school shooting last year where 17 students and staff were killed.
We may never have an exact number of how many teachers will carry weapons because they're supposed to remain anonymous for their safety. School districts are allowed to opt out of arming teachers, and two of the state's largest school districts including Miami-Dade and Orlando have elected to do so, but a handful of smaller school districts are all in.
Students in Bay County Schools – located along the Florida Panhandle – may be walking into a classroom Tuesday morning where the teacher is carrying a concealed handgun.
"Everybody wants to know 'How do we prevent it?' How can we stop it. We don't look at it as we want more guns, we look at it as we want more protection," said Bay County Schools Superintendent Bill Husfelt.
