Some school officials aren’t happy about the stickers because they contain a very basic image of a gun.
“It is bothersome to have to post
a sticker of a gun that says, ‘Hey, folks, leave your guns at home,’”
Theresa Nolan, principal of Tinley Park High School, told the
SouthtownStar.
Nolan stressed that she is very
concerned with “safety and security” and concerned that, somehow,
someone could wrongly interpret an image of a gun emblazoned with the
universal sign for prohibiting something.
“I think the general public will
be alarmed by it and wonder if people have been allowed to bring guns to
school in the past,” Nolan also fretted.
She said she would prefer “something more subtle.”
“You can’t look at this (sticker) and not think about Sandy Hook,” the principal added.
Well the next Adam Lanza can now look for the no guns allowed sign and know that security guards or teachers with concealed carry will not shoot back.
