1or 2 staffers ‘usually’ armed

At least one staffer at the Nashville Christian school where six people were gunned down this week is usually armed for pupils’ security, according to a teacher who called 911 begging for help.

“We do have a school person — or two, I’m not sure — who would be packing, whose job it is for security,” one woman told a dispatcher while cowering under a desk during Monday’s rampage at the Covenant School.

“We don’t have security guards, but we have a staff.”

The 911 call — one of about two dozen made during the 14-minute bloodbath — was the first suggestion staff at the school may have been armed.

It challenges pro-gun activists who claim allowing teachers to carry is an easy recipe to end such violence.
