1700s The earliest known United States shooting to happen on school property was the Pontiac's Rebellion school massacre on July 26, 1764, where four Lenape American Indian entered the schoolhouse near present-day Greencastle, Pennsylvania, shot and killed schoolmaster Enoch Brown, and killed nine or ten children (reports vary).
Those aren’t all swat teams, the admin running the counter isn’t coming in stomping ass on a moments notice. They aren’t all just chilling in the catacombs waiting to march on a moments notice either.
If they did however mobilize to max effect, you don’t think the arm population would immediately be on edge? That would be a full martial law order, which could be met with heavy resistance.

Not meaningfully. As we’ve seen time and time again, the 2A crowd is perfectly content to allow the state to be as authoritarian as it likes, so long as it’s hurting those pesky undesirables.
The 2A crowd didn’t do shit when the 1985 move bombing happened. They didn’t do shit when DeSantis started harrasing people with cops in their own homes for using their 1A rights. They didn’t do shit when pro-palestinian protesters were getting the shit beat out of them by cops for using their 1A rights. They didn’t do shit for the myriad of bullshit wars the U.S. was involved in. They didn’t do shit when it came out how many countries the CIA destabilized in Latin America. The nth time will be no different.
The authoritarians have little to fear, because the group that likes to act like they would keep that in check fully support it.
I think you maybe misunderstanding. I mean sure those are things libertarians who are also 2a supporters rail against and fight for those things, but yeah the people who are being targeted the most are the people need to exercise their 2a the most. If the only people armed are faciest or adjacent then only their rights and interests are protected by it. Without the 2a only the states rights and interests (police, DeSantis, etc) are protected with guns.
