500 долларов!

Потихоньку начинает проясняться, о каком "little bonus" для учителей с оружием идет речь. And let me tell you, it is indeed little. In fact, as low as my expectations were, even I thought it would be something more substantial.

Despite Parkland’s opposition, Florida House panel votes to arm teachers
Voting along party lines, the House Appropriations Committee approved training teachers to carry guns in class under the direction of local law enforcement — if superintendents or school boards approve.

The Senate Appropriations Committee approved a similar bill later Tuesday. [...]

The goal: 10 marshals (teachers trained to carry a gun) in every school, which would equate to 37,000 statewide. The state would cover the costs of background checks, drug testing, psychological exams and 132 hours of training. The bill does provide a one-time $500 stipend for those who volunteer to have a gun.
500 долларов! Причем даже не прибавка к зарплате в 500 долларов, а единовременная выплата!

Ну, может, хоть оружие учителя бесплатно получат? Да тоже не факт, это будет решаться на уровне штатов. Не штатов, а еще ниже, на уровне "school boards and superintendents".
Oliva said the bill doesn't address whether teachers would be provided guns or would have to buy them. He said that should be decided locally by school boards and superintendents.
Про 132 hours of training тоже непонятно. На каждого учителя сколько часов придется?

В общем, по-моему, отлично придумано. И дешево, и проблема массовых расстрелов в школах решена.
