I don't know how many other teachers kept guns in their desks, etc.

I do know that a lot of students (including myself) carried pocket knives.

NONE of the things you said ever happened.
There were NO shootings at my school. There were no stabbings.

I graduated in 1979. Kids back then in small towns were raised with guns and knew how to handle them and respected what they could do.

These days? I think society has a problem. I don't know if it's caused by video games, or the media "glorifying" mass shooters and making them famous, or if it's an unintended consequence of gun control advocates (usually the fastest way to get someone to do anything is to tell them they can't)...but whatever it is, we need to figure it out quick.

I don't think that ANY of the things you listed would happen. It never happened in the past when schools DID have guns in them (there was no law one way or another in most states).
And in "my day" there was a lot of racial tensions in schools in Florida. And yet nobody got killed (got my ass beat pretty good by gangs in school a couple of times though).

One thing is for sure...sitting around doing NOTHING but arguing about "Gun Control" (which can't really happen in a meaningful way unless the Congress repeals the 2nd Amendment) is NOT working.

Let's harden up security for the schools and put an end to this nonsense.
We guard movie stars. We guard politicians. We even have guards on duty after-hours at car dealerships.
Don't you think we should guard our kids too?

I had a teacher that carried a gun as well, we had rifles in our cars and trucks and I graduated in 78. Now the dems are declaring schools a gun free zone and see how well that's doing? They have a problem with school shootings, yet during the administration of Obama, school shootings increased ten fold.

Bump stocks were made legal under the Obama administration.

I have zero problems with better back ground checks, but lets get the system to actually work first, which has been the case with this last big shooting. And maybe some cops with a pair that isn't a fucking coward!

I raised my daughter is a small school district, many people in the area have carry permits because the local sheriffs know that is a deterrent to crime. I never worries about a school shooting because I saw the principal at the gun range on a regular basis.
