Schools have fire alarms, fire extinguishers, and regularly practice drills to evacuate in the case of a fire. It doesn't mean we have an crisis of schools catching on fire all the time. It's not unreasonable that one or two adults who are reasonably trained might have a firearm on campus. Firearms already exist in the world. Wishing them away won't make them disappear. Not to mention, shootings are only a fraction of the reasons you might need a firearm. What if a kid is getting mauled by a dog, or a violent person wanders into the building and starts hurting people? Are you going to wait minutes for the police to show up when seconds count? It seems like all the pragmatic people have left the room whenever any kind of discussion about firearms comes up.
