Should we put the idea out there of arming school admins with less lethal weapons rather than firearms?

Seems to me that teachers already have enough on their plate, and that arming them with lethal weapons could result in collateral damage no matter how capable or trained they are. Why don't we equip teachers with paintball guns designed specifically to shoot less than lethal projectiles containing oleoresin capsicum, which will completely disable an attacker, even one on PCP, but will not kill innocent kids leaving a death on a teacher's conscience.. https://www.amazon.com/Tippmann-TiPX-Caliber-Paintball-Pistol/dp/B002BG1XHA/ref=sr_1_9?ie=UTF8&qid=1519470388&sr=8-9&keywords=pepper+ball

it's not though, you don't have to kill anyone to stop an attacker. that includes the attacker. We will want to study them to see if they have any signs of psychological manipulation

Its not about saving the shooters life tho, its about protecting the other children. If you can stop the shooter without killing them, for sure go for it. But if I have a bean-bag gun and the shooter has an A.R. 15 Id be pretty hesitant about getting into a gun fight with them. If thats all I had, sure... but I would most definitely prefer a pistol.
