Teachers and janitors can now conceal-carry guns in Kansas public schools subject to school district approval. If a school district allows it their insurers have refused to renew their insurance as the risk has greatly increased.
"The EMC Insurance Cos. insures 85 percent to 90 percent of all Kansas school districts and has refused to renew coverage for schools that permit teachers and custodians to carry concealed firearms on their campuses under the new law, which took effect July 1. It's not a political decision, but a financial one based on the riskier climate it estimates would be created, the insurer said."
"A smaller Des Moines-area insurer — Continental Western Group, based in Urbandale — has followed EMC's lead with a similar position in response to the new law... so has Wright Specialty Insurance, based in New York."
You think there's only 1 insurance company in Kansas?
I think, I know, insurance companies make decisions based on risk not on politics.
Look at the size of this concealed carry class for teachers in Utah. Does this look like adequate training? I hope your kid's teacher isn't sitting at in the back row.
In a country as over-litigated as this one, Kansas is simply inviting a barrage of lawsuits with a moronic policy such as this one.
Nobody has deeper pockets than any government entity you can think of; the ambulance chasrers from coast to coast will pack the state's hotels at the first episode.

So do you think another insurance company will step up or not?
How could anyone possibly say that the training class in that photo is adequate or not?

Oh sweet Jebus. I'm glad those aren't my kid's teachers.

Gotta love the women in the audience taking notes. I count four of them. I wonder what they're writing? "Get me out here...get me out of here...get me out of here" or maybe, "Do not point barrel at my own head." Just begging for a caption contest.
