[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What about a sense of urgency to save a child's life? Why not medivac never mind NO SIREN for ambulance?

Deny, minimize, deflect - oh that stabber shooter must have left the bidg! oh that kid in the hall, i will let him in! never mind from Columbine on school shooters have been students, why follow protocol in a school that had recent repeated threats that were also dismissed? Why not be trained and drilled to respond to save victims and maximize safety?

It was EMS who expressed concern about the security situation at the school en route. Before THEY knew it was a gunshot they knew it could be unsafe and they had not heard of a police response on the radio and were uneasy. Common sense. They had it, the nurse performed well, everyone else did not. [/quote]
An SRO presense may not have stopped the shooting, but the SRO would know to treat this with the utmost urgency and call the cops.

As stated, they are trained to assess and respond to threats. Security guards are not. Heck, even the EMS knew better than the admins and security guard, who again are not trained for this type of thing.[/quote]

This.

I'm not convinced an SRO wouldn't have stopped this  either. 
Unfortunately for the child, we will never know.[/quote]

There is great chance he could have prevented this by knowing a beef was brewing. And help talk the kids out of it. That’s what they are best at. [/quote]

They have literally never done that.[/quote]
