What if schools and community centers gave guns to kids to deal with abusive parents? (serious)

I know it sounds like a joke, but the more I think about it, the more it makes sense. The police and CPS don’t do shit for abused kids the majority of the time. And when they do, they usually just make the situation worse (e.g. parents lie about abuse to get sole custody of their kids). I feel like a better approach is just to give kids guns when they say they have abusive parents. It would be government spending, but buying enough guns to do this wouldn’t be insanely expensive (maybe a few billion dollars for a few million guns) and kids would have access to guns anyway in Ancapistan if they had the money to pay for them (plus private schools and charities could do something similar). Not every kid that gets a gun under this policy will kill someone. They just need to be able to deter parents/guardians from abusing them. It would also keep school bullying to a minimum.

Some people will unfortunately think this is a troll post. I guarantee you it isn’t. If you want to have an actual conversation about this, feel free to leave a comment, but please don’t say I’m trolling.
