Some probably would, but many would probably only carry the guns at all under sufferance, so it’s worth considering also what impact it would have on the population that’s interested in teaching.
True, adding an irrelevant-but-mandatory criteria for taking up a job is bound to have some effect on the population in that job. I wonder what the result would be on the perceived leftist bias of the education system if you forced the system into 100% gun ownership(which is, these days, one of the strongest Republican indicators).
Is it? I’ve read recently that 40% of gun owners are Democrats, although I couldn’t remember where at the moment. I could think of more reliable indicators.
Well, actually, I thought I could, but in fact I could think of more reliable Democrat indicators but I’m not sure about R ones.

I’m getting my data from http://fivethirtyeight.blogs.nytimes.com/2012/12/18/in-gun-ownership-statistics-partisan-divide-is-sharp/
Also, I meant demographic indicators—if opinions count, “I am a (Republican/Democrat)” seems the most accurate.
Advocacy of teaching Creationism or Intelligent Design in schools? Opposition to both gay marriage and civil partnerships?
Yes, probably. Homeschooling, perhaps, as well, though maybe only if you stick to a D/R dichotomy.
