Get your gun cocked and ready then, chances are atleast one person riding with you is. Because someone has a gun, is carring legally, and is just going about their normal day, your more likely to fire yours? I'd think the contraditory, because if some crazy comes on board and starts threatening or attacking people, I'd like my gun and the guy next to me pointing guns at the crazy.

Also while your worried about your fellow commuter packing, your doing the same, being that exact commuter your looking out for... while you pack for protection, they are too, are you above them with your right to carry?

I think you could have come up with a more suiting analogy then arming teachers will compound the problem ... obviously, teachers work with children (high school included) who are still learning (and in most cases courts are blind when it comes to them - ie juvi 'centers', etc..) how to function in society and what's right and wrong. So yes, a teenager will probably take a gun, increase the shootings in schools... bad argument, we already know guns/immaturity (mostly in the cases of children) don't mix, lets not add to it. But because one more person is issued their CCW doesn't mean we are compounding the problems.
