School officials and Madison County Sheriff Buddy Harwood have placed one semiautomatic rifle in each of the county's six schools.

The idea of having AR-15s in schools does not sit well with Dorothy Espelage, a UNC Chapel Hill professor in the School of Education who has conducted decades of study and research on school safety and student well-being.WLOS-TV. Just the presence of an SRO increases violence in the schools. There's more arrests of kids. Why is it that they have to have these AR-15s? It doesn't make any sense.

Harwood said the county's school resource officers have been training with instructors from Asheville-Buncombe Technical Community College. "We'll have those tools to be able to breach that door if needed. I do not want to have to run back out to the car to grab an AR, because that's time lost. Hopefully we'll never need it, but I want my guys to be as prepared as prepared can be," he said.Schools are scheduled to reopen Aug. 22, according to the Madison County Schools website.

Oh great idea now the terrorists don't need to bring their own ARs 🙄

Keep an eye on this place... it'll probably be scene of the worst massacre in that State, unless common sense kicks in at some point.

The south will be the south 🤷🏽‍♂️

Mass shooters won't even have to buy their own guns, how convenient.

🤬🤬🤬

Nothing could go wrong here, right?

Creating a room for the police to cower in.

Yikes. No thank you. Educators have a enough to deal with

Idiots

Lock n Load

Why? Every time there's a shooting the perp uses an AR and the good guys with guns run like Uvalde.

How very MAGA of them
