Myself and coworkers joke about our "armory" of weapons ready to combat a shooter. However, we're not stupid enough to actually do that. We know the police that would show up within seconds would see us as targets as well.

seconds? Nope. 5+ minutes (which is usually too late).

The office I work in has the city's emergency management building right at the foot of it.

Sounds like we agree that having a police officer on duty at schools that are "gun free" is a good idea.

The fact that it's common knowledge that you're armed means you'll likely never have to deal with that kind of situation.
