JimLur, here is a more accurate picture of the gun situation in Israel. Policy is that teachers are not armed. Apparently the one armed guard entrance at most schools is not locked, and

"Janet Rosenbaum, an assistant professor of epidemiology at the School of Public Health at the State University of New York Downstate in Brooklyn, examined
the difference in homicide rates between Israel and the United States. Writing in the New York Post, she said her research showed that Israel ranks 81st in the
world for per capita firearm ownership, with fewer than 1 in 10 Israelis owning firearms. The United States, with one firearm for every person, ranks first."

the guns/per citizen ratio is much lower than it is in the U.S.A., and Israel has stricter gun control.

You misrepresent the situation as usual.
