Did staff at Covenant School 'pack'?

At least one staffer at the Nashville Christian school where six people were gunned down this week is usually armed for pupils’ security, according to a teacher who called 911 begging for help.

“We do have a school person — or two, I’m not sure — who would be packing, whose job it is for security,” one woman told a dispatcher while cowering under a desk during Monday’s rampage at the Covenant School.

“We don’t have security guards, but we have a staff.”

[This sounds like speculation, but it would raise questions as to whether carry on campus would be enough of a deterrent. It apparently did in this case, although not at Covenant, as the shooter reportedly changed targets because of more robust armed security at her first chosen target. This also doesn’t say whether the staffer was armed on the day of the shooting or was even on campus. — Ed]
