Many leaders in the School systems are just crazy left-wingers, and security makes some feel unsafe and offended, the same reason is why teachers can not arm themselves. Whoever suggests that teachers arm themselves has no idea of just how left-wing our school systems have evolved.. Protecting students is less important than creating an environment where students perceive they are safe, many come from homes so broken it is hard to believe. Many students would not eat if it were not for food at school.
Next is the police procedures that many do not understand, and of course, no one will talk about.
Regular patrol police officers have no training or equipment to storm an active shooter where the shooter is heavily armed. The protocol is for the police to secure the perimeter, and wait till SWAT arrives. Without knowing how many active shooters are involved, the police could be walking into a trap. Those police officers have the right to go home to their children and wives.
Security guards and Deputy Sherriffs working in school systems have one heck of a job since Black Lives Matter created the Defund the Police movement, hate America, and hate the cops. Now, police have their budgets slashed, thus less training and longer response time for situations like this horrible school shooting.
Red Flag laws will have open access to your medical records. If your spouse dies, and you have one single prescription for Zanex, you could have your guns taken away 5 years later due to a diagnosis of depression.
The question that I have is that if a couple of the local police charged in to rescue the kids, and shoot the bad guy, would they have been in trouble for breaking procedure?
People talk about school security, I say that every patrol car should have a shotgun, and an AR with 200 rounds of ammo, body armor for the patrolman. These guys have the Heart of a Lion, but they need the tools to do this impossible job.
Better watch those knee-jerk reactions. Support your local police, and get involved with the local School Board. Ex-military and retired police could volunteer as security at local schools, where politically correct. Heckling of Security in High Schools here in my area is just beyond belief!
I hate talking political issues on this great site!
