Online school good or bad?

Parent carries concealed gun into school. Schoolcalls the police to determine whether the carrier has a CPL. Good policy or bad? Why?

• Open carry is perfectly legal in Michigan but only if you have a Concealed Pistol License (CPL). The parent — who remains anonymous — did have a CPL. But both state and federal law prohibits guns on school property except for a legal parent or guardian who must leave the weapon in the car and this only applies to CPL holders, who must pass a comprehensive background check and carry the gun visibly. That’s all well and good for open-carry folks. But the school district is committed to keeping the children in their care safe. To that end, School Board President Rebecca Walsh has set out the following plan: “If this occurs during school hours, the building will immediately go into lockdown status, and 9-1-1 will be called so law enforcement agencies can make a determination on the status of the person with the weapon.” She added that the same policy applies when school is not in session, without the lockdown. The police will be summoned for any visitor who brings a gun onto school property. The School District feels that they must use this procedure for everyone because they have no way of knowing who is properly licensed. http://www.addictinginfo.org/2014/11/08/father-open-carries-into-school-the-school-boards-reaction-was-perfect/ Some humor: "How to Tell the Difference Between an Open-Carry Patriot and a Deranged Killer" http://boingboing.net/2014/06/11/tom-the-dancing-bug-how-to-te.html
