Imagine if teachers were armed, lives could have been saved and it would of been a shootout of course, or maybe the coward would thought twice about doing this. But how would people feel about sending their kids to school knowing teachers are armed? Security seems irrelevant anymore. Just thinking out loud.
because it won't have nearly the impact you'd expect? these tragedies are going to happen no matter what unless you go all the way - at least one security guard, metal detectors, patting down everyone that enters, etc.Why is it a bad idea to have at least one armed security guard at all schools?
yes, in the hood. to stop kids from hurting each other.security guards at schools are nothing new.
hunting?The guy used a .223 caliber rifle....a gun that serves no purpose in the arms of a citizen. Yes, gun control should be talked about. After an incident like this, why shouldn't all possible causes/solutions be explored? More thorough background checks, etc. before selling someone a gun seems logical.
You have to be pretty naive to think that somebody trained with a gun would not have prematurely killed the bastard saving at least one life.because it won't have nearly the impact you'd expect? these tragedies are going to happen no matter what unless you go all the way - at least one security guard, metal detectors, patting down everyone that enters, etc.
take today, for example. the shooter was a father of a student. would a security guard stop him from entering? doubtful. would a security guard have saved any lives once the shooting started? again, doubtful. adding another gun into the mix when there are already a ton of kids running around would not end well.
yes, in the hood. to stop kids from hurting each other.
not to stop others from entering schools.

How about the 3 other guns? The Kevlar vest?
I'm just curious, why is everyone so against it being harder to get a gun? If you need a gun quickly, then you should probably rethink your life.
