Emotions ran high at the emergency work session held by the District 6 Board of Education to discuss ways to prevent Board-member Brett Reese from legally carrying a weapon to board meetings. Reese informed John Gates, head of district security, that he would be carrying his weapon after receiving death threats.

The board wasted no time making it plain they felt Reese should not be bringing a gun to meetings. Board president Linda Trimberger stated that it was not “Mr. Reese’s decision to carry a weapon to school board meetings.” Several members referenced the Florida school board shooting as well as the recent Arizona shooting involving Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords.

Earlier in the week both Trimberger and board-member Bob Stack made statements to the media doubting that Reese had truly received death threats. However, at the meeting they now appeared to be concerned about their own safety as well as Reese’s

So he is a liar and they are more scared of a fellow board member than they are of some whacko coming off the street. They know they will be safe because it will be illegal for whacko to bring a gun to the meeting. Makes sense to me, of course I am easily influenced.
