Letter: Idea to arm teachers sounds like a joke
Saturday, March 17, 2007 | 6:52 a.m.
Our Legislature in Nevada has always been a little "off the beaten track," but the proposal by Sen. Bob Beers to arm teachers is ludicrous to say the least.
Upon hearing of this, I was reminded of Archie Bunker when he expressed, in an episode of "All in the Family," how to put an end to airline hijackings - "arm all the passengers"!
