[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Kids should not go to school in a prison. That’s completely f**ked up. Who are you monsters?!

Ban guns! It’s so easy to fix.[/quote]

As someone who taught in a school that was fashioned like a prison I 100% agree.  That does something to a child’s psyche that I would not want children to experience.  Stop putting all of our burdens on our most vulnerable population.  Adults don’t seem to want to make change or sacrifice anything for children.[/quote]

Make those changes, but they take time. But in the meantime? Save the children. The door, according to MSN who referenced video, was left propped open. Teacher went out, got his/her phone to call authorities after the shooter crashed his truck and shot at funeral home personnel, went back in and sadly didn't shut the door. Not his/her fault, just an unfortunate circumstance. [/quote]

Just think if he didn’t have a gun, we wouldn’t be having this discussion and burying a bunch of children.[/quote]
If the teacher had a weapon in his/her car, got that instead of just a cell phone, shut the door and stood on the inside, or if there wa s an armed resource officer inside, it could have been different too.

We can both play the wish it was game. But that won't change a thing tomorrow. Again, even if there was a massive ban and buyback program, that takes time. There are things that can be changed today to protect kids tomorrow[/quote]

How do you feel about "proper perimeter fences" that are "intended to deter"?  Big fan?   [/quote]

I think anything you do to slow down someone is helpful. Ted Bundy got Kimberly Leach on school grounds. He would have had a hard time climbing a locked fence with a child in tow.[/quote]

The gunman climbed an 8' fence to get in.

The police had a lot of time to act.  They chose not to.[/quote]

I'm confused. There were police inside the school area and outside the school area and not one of them shot a guy with a gun climbing the fence right in front of them? Or did he take off and they could not find him fast enough?

What about the door that was left propped open? Not a problem re: security?[/quote]

They were 3-7 there almost immediately after he entered.  He fired in their general direction and they ran away.  19 of them then waited 40 minutes in a hallway and told to stand down.  Eventually the border patrol guys arrived and after 20 minutes arguing with the Uvalde police they decided to go in themselves.

Response time was not a problem.  They had it.  They were there.[/quote]

I would love to hear from border patrol and how big a mess up this police department was[/quote]
