This is terrifying. [b]There is no barrier or deterrence to prevent kids from bringing weapons on school grounds. Why is everyone ok with this?

We go through screening at the airport to avoid this stuff but despite countless incidents at schools, we continue to let it be a free-for-all. I guess they're waiting for enough kids to die or get hurt before they do something drastic. Even though Magruder already happened on MCPS's watch.[/quote]

Wrong.  There are laws, and they generally work.  No need to overreact to a single rumor (which is what this is so far).[/quote]

A single rumor? Are you paying attention?

Last week, Richard Montgomery was on lockdown for this same issue.

But yeah.....the laws are working and we're overreacting to a single rumor. That math makes sense to you.[/quote]

Lol, that was 1 week at RM alone in the 70’s and 80’s

The sky is falling, the sky is falling.[/quote]

So you're not bothered. Noted.

The rest of us who care about our kids' wellbeing and have a moral code will continue the discussion.[/quote]
