School security

Antiwar said:
That's the only workable partial solution in the land of the gun- secure schools to prevent slaughters.

Sandy Hook wasn't secure enough.

Instead of building "the wall," public schools need to be walled in.

Metal, gun, and bomb detectors are needed.

I think there's going to be a lot of construction happening at schools this summer.

Even that is theater, see Lots of Security Theater, Little Actual Security. A determined and/or deranged gunner will shoot his way through all of these. Some $10/hour manner of a metal detector is not the equal of someone crazed enough to carry out a school shooting.

What do you think that would cost, and what else could we do with that money that would save far more lives?

A lot less than no questions asked 40 billion sent to Ukraine.

In any event, there already are schools that are secured and where the teachers are allowed to carry a gun.

Guess how many mass shootings there have been at those schools, even ones in the inner cities?

Why is it that you were seemingly OK with barbed wire and guards being erected around the Capitol building but don't want to protect the schools? Because some liberals may not get his welfare check or some illegals are sent back?

We need a public health campaign on guns like we had on cigarettes. Educate people to dangers of owning a gun. People's attitudes need to change about them, which is challenging enough considering their fetishization.

Other countries pretty much got rid of them altogether. Seems like the sign of a healthy society.

Who would conduct that education? Anti second amendment zealots? George Soros's team? AOC sycho[pants, Jankowitz?

The same folks who did the cigarette campaign. Don't like the facts about owning a gun getting out, huh?

Yes. We know you support Putin's war in Ukraine. Now back to the topic.

What you DON'R know is that some schools already DO allow teachers to carry and you can guess the number of shootings there, can't you?

On a related note. A guy was shooting at reception and would have killed several people. A citizen (female) with a gun smoked him. Result? Numerous lives were saved, a criminal dead, and a woman who wouldn't have stood a chance otherwise did him in. This was just yesterday.

MSM< won't report on this. They love docile sheep.

IOW, far-left liberals.

We don't NEED the Jankowitzs of the world in our faces being our nannies. That is NOT the purpose of government. Some of you think there should be instructions on how to cook a burger by the government.

No.

Keep RWNJ murderers from getting their hands on guns so easily.

So making Americans aware of the dangers of cigarettes was a left wing government conspiracy, eh?
