Just a quick update about the IFC Chairman and our volunteer lobbyist meeting with Gov. Reynolds about developing a program to train school staff who want to be armed to protect the kids we all love. You can find it here.

You might want to read about Professor John Lott's recent studies and recommendations on the subject of armed school staff, here is his OpEd that highlights the obvious to all except the dangerous quacks on the left.

Does this include colleges and universities or is this just K-12?

This program is just K-12 as of now, but it can be expanded if the demand is there.

The universities will be the last bastion.

FYI:  Iowa did not exempt Qualified Retired Law Enforcement Officers from Gun Free School Zones when they exempted off duty police two years ago.

we included anyone qualifying for LEOSA (HR218) in this year's bill to carry in schools, and while it passed the house, it was placed on "unfinished business" in the senate.  

none too happy with this year's progress.

Just read the IFC update.  Yeah, not a great year.  A lot of better luck next session.

The only thing that stops an active school shooter is someone that is armed and has balls enough to run toward the gunfire and kill the perp regardless of consequences.
