[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A piece of reassurance I offered my kid is that people who actually want to do harm, don’t generally advertise it—this is most likely designed to create fear and chaos, rather than a legitimate threat. This is someone taking advantage of the fear from earlier this week[/quote] Sadly, this is statistically untrue. In fact, the opposite is true. The vast majority of school shooters told someone of their intentions before they did it. This is why the one of the most important and proven school security safeguards is early threat identification and culture in which students have trusted adults to tell them if they heard something, anonymous tiplines, etc. That and keeping guns away from children are the best ways to actually PREVENT school shootings. https://www.everytown.org/issues/guns-in-schools/#what-are-the-solutions[/quote]
