Adapt or die.

Where have I heard that before?

They are always on the leading edge in safety at schools, airports and borders
because they have to be.

Exactly! They realize they live in a very dangerous world. Apparently, we don't. All libs really want is for everyone to relinquish their guns so that that the arms underground can grow to feed guns to criminals and the mentally unstable so that these two groups can go shoot fish in a barell at will. What a plan!

This is the most logical solution.

Why not just arm all kids and teachers from kindergarten on up?

Why not just teach your kids not to be murderous scumbags?

There would be no mass shootings ever again.
Nothing stops a shooter faster than a second shooter.

Gun free zones only benefit the KILLERS, Eintstein, not the victims.

Who would stand a better chance of surviving: The above mentioned group or the group you advocate for -- the "fish in the barrel"?

I ran the construction of a new school near Dutch Harbor AK. The design of the security features this school has, is still, way ahead of itself. The entrance to the school has metal detectors and metal pocket doors, some walk through and set off the alarm the pocket door close and locks the area trapping who ever set off the alarm, Main office secured bullet proof glass,pocket doors, the hall ways had metal pocket doors that the security could activate along with the main office . They could separate that building in so many ways. Every lock set had card readers and were on the FLS system. Entire school video monitored from a secured guard office. They performed weekly drills. This was in 1998 and the school was only for 35, children K-4. School cost to construct 12 million. It can be done very well, If we really wanted to.

“Israel pretty much eliminated [shootings] by placing highly trained people strategically to spot the one common thread — not the weapon, but a person with intent.” — Former Gov. Mike Huckabee of Arkansas

This is an interpretation that the Israelis reject.

Israeli officials and experts rejected this version of events after a similar claim was made by Wayne LaPierre, the president of the National Rifle Association, after the 2012 shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn., in which 20 children and six adults were killed.

“Israel had a whole lot of school shootings until they did one thing. They said, ‘We’re going to stop it,’ and they put armed security in every school, and they have not had a problem since then,” Mr. LaPierre said in December 2012 on NBC.

Yigal Palmor, a spokesman for the Israeli Foreign Ministry, told The New York Daily News at the time that the situations in the United States and Israel were “fundamentally different” and said that the measures that Israel enacted were a response to terrorism.

“What removed the danger was not the armed guards, but an overall antiterror policy and antiterror operations, which brought street terrorism down to nearly zero over a number of years,” Mr. Palmor said.

But you don't have a gun. Why not?

Was there a point to this particular reply? If you have a workable solution, bring it. Or better yet send it to your representative in DC or your state representative.

Schools are like prisons these days. Even old schools have been refitted with all these security mechanisms, locked entrances where you need to be buzzed in during school hours...

It's all very sad...and has NOTHING to do with guns...

Guns have been around well before these school massacres started happening with frightening regularity...

But liberals should just keep putting their heads in the sand and crying out about the guns being the problem...

And they call Republicans rednecks and dopes?
