Gun control has nothing to do with making MCPS safer.  MCPS is doing nothing.  Most parents wanted them to remove SRO's and police from the schools.  They did.  [/quote]

How did the police do in Uvalde? Or Parkland?

Don’t get me wrong, I support having SROs in schools. I just think it is ridiculous to think they’d stop school shootings.[/quote]

They didn't do well but that's not a justification to not have them.  If they did their job they would have gone in, killed the killer and got those kids medical attention and that is the point.

If these incidents are representative, SROs will stand around, run away or arrest parents. [/quote]

There have been SRO's who have also saved lives.  [/quote]

Neat. What percentage of the very, very long list of school shootings in the US since the 90s were stopped by SROs?

Hint:  damn few.[/quote]
School shootings typically involve assault style rifles, large magazines, and tons of ammo. SROs are seriously outgunned.

Maybe instead of MCPS asking them to supply bus drivers, we should ask the National Guard to provide armed soldiers.[/quote]

The National Guard has better things to do than schools.  It isn't their job.  Its the job of the police.  So by your logic, we should have multiple armed SRO's in each school.  Fine with me.[/quote]
SROs aren't trained as soldiers. We need soldiers to stop these shooters.[/quote]

National Guard are snipers and police are more appropriate.c[/quote]
