>US politicians call for arming teachers
得州总检察长建议给教师配枪
Immediately after the school shooting in Texas, conservative politicians reacted with another push for arming school officials to protect students – a notion that has raised strong objections among teachers, researchers and gun control activists.
得克萨斯州发生校园枪击事件后,美国保守党政客立即作出反应,再次推动学校教职员工配枪保护学生,这一提案在教师、研究人员和控枪活动家中引起强烈反对。
"We can arm and prepare and train teachers and other administrators to respond quickly, because the reality is we don't have the resources to have law enforcement at every school," Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton told Fox News on May 24.
得州总检察长肯•帕克斯顿5月24日对福克斯新闻表示:“我们可以武装、培训教师和其他管理人员,让他们有所准备,迅速做出反应,因为我们没办法在每一所学校安排执法人员。”
Texas has already pioneered such training, the School Marshal Program, which allows teachers and administrators to carry handguns after 80 hours of training at academies overseen by the Texas Commission on Law Enforcement.
得州早前已经率先开展了“校警计划”培训,教师和行政人员在得克萨斯州执法委员会监管的学院接受80小时的培训后便可以配枪。
