Shots were fired by a teacher at a US school and everyone had the same message for Donald Trump
Everyone had the same message for Donald Trump after a teacher was arrested at a US high school after allegedly firing a gun and barricading himself in an office.
The incident in Georgia comes after Trump said the best way to stop high school shootings was to give guns to teachers, a process that has already begun.
Florida's Republican-controlled appropriations committee has approved a $67 million "school marshal" program to give 10 teachers per school 132 hours of training to carry guns, and give armed teachers $500 bonuses: https://t.co/6ZmmCYIP79 pic.twitter.com/Mub8hfvKbE

And yet the latest shooting – no-one was injured – suggests Trump’s plan is as ill-thought through as everyone suggested it was.
And here’s how people reacted online.

Shots were fired at Dalton High School in Georgia today—by a teacher. Clearly the only logical solution now is to arm all students.
