Good luck on the radio show. Interesting comments on the webpage. I took your FASTER program and have been an advocate for it, still pushing for our school to implement it. Our superintendent has open ears but our police department has a "shoot first, ask questions later" attitude which would get me and anybody with a gun, cellphone or pencil in their hand killed. "I thought he was the gunman!"

We all laughed at the "CCW badge and CCW sash" idea but this just might be the situation for that concept. Perhaps in the form of a vest or sash with identifying color and wording specific to that school and known only to the local police.

The LEO here possibly train with those that the local school decided to arm, they armed the janitors and many are former LEO.

The Sheriffs dept has a "special deputy" division, guys who have 4WD vehicles and who help direct traffic at the fair and stuff like that, might be a good idea for the armed school persons to be involved in that so if there IS something that happens everybody already knows each other ;-).
