Poll says most teachers would not bring guns to school, even if allowed

While one Georgia school district, in Laurens County, recently decided to authorize some teachers and other personnel to carry guns in school, teachers statewide have mixed view on that idea.

A recent poll by the Professional Association of Georgia Educators of 7,204 members across the state show:

— 53 percent of teachers would not carry a gun to school if permitted

— 20.8 maybe would carry a gun

— 8.7 percent probably would carry a gun

— 17.5 percent would carry a gun
