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. That person should be charged with murder too if that is what happened. There is video in these schools so we should know that by now. That is really the easiest way to "harden" the schools anyway. Just increase the number of cameras and be able to isolate a shooter with doors that can be closed and locked remotely. That along with notification systems would do more than armed guards. If they can monitor the shooter from a central location and send the video to the cops along with exactly where the guy is, taking him will be a lot easier. If the teachers know immediately to lock the classroom door and get everyone behind the safe line (an area that can't be seen from the hall), they can just hunker down and wait. |
