[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes. Along with metal detectors. And one single point of entry. So you can't get in with a weapon bc the detector goes off, then you of course just try to shoot your way in, and there are 2-3 armed guards right there who in turn attempt to shoot you first. If it can work in federal courthouses, it can work in schools.

[b](YES gun control is the preferred option and these war time weapons shouldn't be sold etc etc. but since it may take us 20 yrs to get gun control in this country, let's stem the bleeding in the meantime.)[/b]

At my local school, there is a cop on duty. But problem is it's a huge school like Parkland - with these weapons of war, they can gun down so many people in 2-3 min that by the time the cop is radioed and makes it to the part of the building, the damage is done. If you have armed guards at the door, any shootout occurs at the doors. And frankly classrooms should be no where near entrances -- though at my school they aren't -- it's all kinds of lobby/general spaces and it takes a while to get down a hall leading to classrooms.[/quote]
