so this is what the education budget may be headed towards. i can’t imagine what’s going through this guys head. this guy in oklahoma thinks it’s a good idea to have bulletproof textbooks in case you need to run away from some person who is shooting up the school.

A retired veteran and candidate for Oklahoma State School Superintendent says he wants to make schools safer by creating bulletproof textbooks.

Bill Crozier says the books could give students and teachers a fighting chance if there’s a shooting at their school.

“Our experiment was as scientific as we could make it, just two or three people who had been in the military,” says Crozier.

Crozier, who is running for state superintendent, took to an open field near Minco to see if a text book could stop a bullet during a school shooting. He believes students could use the reading material while running away from an attacker.

“The reason we are doing this experiment,” he says, “is because there was a kid in Fort Gibson who was shot in the back but the bullet did not penetrate his textbook.”
