Guy is really screwed up, IMO.

Love his idea (well, not his idea) of hardening schools to keep out
the gun nuts. Schools don't have enough $$$ to supply kids with
pencils and paper.

I can certainly understand why opinions on gun control issues are so
divided and so earnestly defended.

Isn't somewhere in the middle a common sense and appropriate for the
times position to take?

While we are "hardening schools," we'll have to harden shopping centers,
churches, outdoor concert venues, parking lots, et cetera. The idea of
having a policeman or armed teaching guarding an entire school is
laughable. Most schools are pretty large, multi-floor buildings.

I tend to agree but in Florida there is usually only one unlocked door
from the outside, the one in the lobby. Either someone blocked another
door open or this guy came in with the other students, carrying a
rifle. Either are possible I suppose.
I do agree that we need to control the nuts. Eliminating soft targets
is pretty much impossible and eliminating potential weapons will just
be a whack a mole game, simply trying to prevent the last attack, not
the next one.

Or someone could have opened a side door for him at a pre-selected time.
