Obviously I am no threat, but it's occurred to me more than once that someone with bad intentions could walk into the school on a basketball night, pretend to be an official and start shooting.
I understand school budgets are stretched, but the safety of the students should be a top priority. I put the onus on the school board, not the general government.
