Button on teacher ID that calls the police

Exactly. What's the point of a button when you could end up with a Uvalde situation. A bunch of chickensh*t cops who won't confront one gunman, leaving little kids to be murdered and others playing dead next to their dead classmates.


As a teacher this is what I always think of when people say “this is why kids need their phones.” Those kids called and called. The police were IN the hallway. They left them there to die. The phones will not make a difference. Uvalde broke something in me- it was so different than other school shootings because I realized if it ever happens, it’s dumb luck. You’re not getting a hero. The security officer at Parkland ran away. Law enforcement stood outside Uvalde for 73 minutes and let those kids take the bullets. The only thing that saves you in a school shooting is the shooter never shoots into the room you’re in. That’s about it. Phones, buttons, apps, police- none of that is the difference maker.


except it made a difference this time. The SROs did their job.

Huh? Its to protect you! Its to get help to YOU sooner. OMG.


I think even a moron can conceptualize how bleak the idea is of having to wear a button around your neck all day long while teaching in case you need emergency assistance for a shooting rather than anyone just BANNING THE WEAPONS. Like, it’s a school, you really think teachers want to wear a constant reminder around their neck reminding them they and their kids might need to call 911 for a gunman one day? It’s depressing.

Thank you for understanding my point.


Your point is not reality. I am a member of Mom’s demand action and agree obviously banning these weapons is the answer. It’s not our current environment though.

Are you a teacher? My point is reality to me. I don’t want to wear one.


Then I don't want you teaching my kid.

+1. There's tons of things at work that I don't want to do. But it's not my call. I can either live with the rules or find another job.
