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.
