Do you trust the government to decide who should and should not have access to firearms based on legal definitions of "mental illness," especially after the past two years of nonsense and bureaucratic redefintions?
The only sure-fire way to stop a bad guy with a gun is to have a good guy with a gun. Let teachers be armed if they choose. End the "gun-free zone" nonsense, because it has objectively failed to stop shooters, but has made innocent people into "felons."
We also do need to address mental health. For starters, let's take a hard look at how the schools are structured. Money gets dumped in, bu academic outcomes are abysmal, and we are seeing mental health problems in the student body. The entire system needs to be overhauled. It is breaking people, and every "reform" thus far seems to worsen this problem.

Yes I trust my elected lawmakers.
And the only way my school teachers can be armed is over my dead body ;)
