Samuel L. Jackson took to Twitter to criticize President Trump after he made repeated pushes for arming trained teachers as a way to address school shootings.
“Can someone that’s been in a Gunfight tell that Muthaf—- that’s Never been in a Gunfight, the flaws of his Arm The Teachers plan??!!” Jackson tweeted on Friday.
Trump tweeted on Thursday that highly trained teachers would serve as a deterrent to school shootings following the deadly attack at a Florida high school last week.
The president called for 20 percent of teachers — with military or special training experience — to be allowed to carry concealed guns.
Student survivors of the Florida school shooting that left 17 people dead have led reignited calls for action on gun violence.
On Wednesday, Trump held a listening session at the White House with students and parents affected by school shootings to discuss solutions.
