What is the best attention grabber for persuasive speech on being against arming teachers?

Question

My topic is about the fact that arming teachers is not the solution to mass shootings in schools. I need an interesting attention grabber to start off my speech. Any help?

Answer

The only things you need to be an effective speaker are something to say and a burning desire to say it. You are saying you don't know what you are talking about. That is a bad start right there. Your problem is you don't have a subject, you have an impression. Of course there is nothing to say about an impression. Learn some facts. You absolutely must know your subject perfectly.
