Typical liberal nutjob reaction. Some parents are objecting to the constitutional right of fathers to bring weapons to their kid's elementary school functions.
What are they going to do if some other kid jumps up and starts pounding their child with a sheet of rolled up construction paper? Just sit there helplessly and let their child take a merciless beating?
This gentleman sums it up well:

Two more lawsuits have been filed by fathers who want to be allowed to bring a gun to functions at their children's elementary schools. That brings the number of such complaints in light of a recent change in Georgia law to three.
On Wednesday, Phillip Evans filed suit in Gwinnett County, saying he wants to bring a gun when he attends functions at Centerville Elementary School in Snellville. James Johnson filed a similar suit Tuesday in Fulton Superior Court asking for clarification whether the state law allows him to bring his 9 mm Smith and Wesson when he goes to functions at New Prospect Elementary School in Alpharetta, where his 6-year-old daughter and 7-year-old son attend.
Johnson said he is afraid for his children's safety and "as a parent it's my responsibility to look out for my family."
There's an elementary school 3 blocks from my house. I've been thinking about doing some community service and looking out for the safety of those kids by grabbing my AR-15, heading down to the school, and patrolling the grounds. Pretty good idea, right?
You can never be too careful some of those elementary school functions can turn ugly.
This is what you get with the guns everywhere laws in GA, paranoia reigns supreme. We know we can trust bringing guns into schools, no history of problems there.

Thank you for validating the OP's comment when they said

Considering no one is suggesting this type of reaction, your posting is meaningless, and void of any value.

You have every right to do so if you choose. The last time I checked the Second Amendment isn't limited to parents.

It's just common sense not to go into an elementary school unarmed. Those kids can go nuts on you just as fast as any adult and if you don't have adequate firepower to defend yourself you are the next statistic waiting to happen.
Consider:
Quote:
A second-grader in Indiana pulls off his shoe and wields it as a weapon, striking his teacher. A kindergartner in Philadelphia punches a pregnant teacher in the stomach.
An 8-year-old in Maryland threatens to burn down his suburban elementary school, plotting where he'll pour the gasoline.
Elementary school principals and safety experts say they're seeing more violence and aggression than ever among their youngest students, pointing to what they see as an alarming rise in assaults and threats to classmates and teachers.
"Some of my most violent kids have been in kindergarten, first and second grade," an elementary school principal in rural Wisconsin says. "They simply lose control, and it comes out in extremely violent manners." The principal did not want her name used.

Consider:
Pregnant elementary school teachers should always be packing you never know.,, the teacher in question could have taken him out with one well aimed shot.
