This is a terrible rebuttal. It essentially says because society has decided to underpay the people that look after our kids for 8 hours a day, that no one else should be able to make money either. The correct take should be teachers are woefully underpaid for the work they do which includes looking after our kids in the event of a school shooter. Strange to me that so many people rally to keep their fellow citizens down. Not the good rebuttal you think it is.
- giantg2 5y agoTeachers in my state make a good living. I know some that make more than I (dev, MSIS, 10yrs exp.) do. Granted we're in the top 10 states for teacher pay. Some other states are woefully underpaid, but it's not universal.

- wonderwonder 5y agoStatistically true but tell that to every school district that forces the teachers to lead live shooter drills every month. With that said though, shooters happen and teachers are in charge of ensuring the safety of their class when it does. Whether it happens or not its part of the job description. How would it play if there was a real school shooting and the teacher just ran away abandoning her class?
