Nebraska State Sen. Tom Brewer (R) proposed during a legislative hearing that more people should be allowed to carry firearms in schools, the Omaha World Herald reports.
Said Brewer: “I think we would be very neglectful of our students if we don’t look at all the options possible. Our laws order parents to send their kids to school. I believe that leaves us with an obligation to protect the kids while they are there.”
