Teacher stops school shooting

[quote]A teacher at a high school in California has been praised by police for averting a serious shooting incident. The teacher and a campus supervisor talked a gunman into putting down his weapon after he had shot and injured one pupil at Taft Union High School. Police said the gunman had enough ammunition to kill many people. "They talked him into putting that shotgun down. He in fact told the teacher, `I don't want to shoot you,' and named the person that he wanted to shoot," Kern County Sheriff Donny Youngblood said. "The heroics of these two people goes without saying. They could have just as easily... tried to get out of the classroom and left students, and they didn't," he added. "[/quote] See having guns in a school would not prevent shootings, it's up to the teachers to try and prevent it just like this guy did. If the teacher pulled out a fire arm on the student he could have been shot or the gun man would have been shot.
