I disagree with that type of security

General 14 students, 1 teacher dead following mass school shooting in Texas
- Thread starter mysticmac
- Start date
Preschoolers are less likely to get shot than cops. Pay the preschoolers.
Brief break from the sarcasm...
One of my med school friends is an emergency medicine doctor in San Antonio. She trained at Yale during Sandy Hook. Both during her time at Yale and now working in San Antonio. She received phone calls asking her crew to be on standby to receive a large number of children due to an active shooter.
And in both cases she didn't have to act because all of the children were dead on arrival. There was no mass medical need to fill up the surrounding EDs.

The Drills might be part of the problem my man.These kids need more shooter drills

We need to focus on securing the schools so the mass shootings will just happen at other locations.
Are drills part of all schools now?

Will you ever stop posting anecdotal evidence as if it means a fucking thing?
Seems people here are more upset about someone shit posting a thread or talk about “losing my guns” than the kids and the teachers that lost their lives. I guess those are only statistics.
I'm sure that's not having any negative effects on their mental health.

Open carry seems completely fucking insane to me, but I grew up here.
Concealed carry with zero training requirements also sounds like a terrible idea. In Florida you have to take a 4-hour class and then wait around 50-55 days for your application to be processed/permit to be issued. It isn't much but it's better than nothing.
100% with you. open and concealed carry are both insane to me because people are insane. when people snap, i dont want them to have the option to reach down and grab a gun
there are some exceptions. i can understand why someone would want to carry a gun out hiking even though pepper spray is supposedly much more effective against some animals such as large bears

Why aren't you buying kids ballistic blankets?

So let's roll with the idea that you have your Ted Cruz solution. We don't care about El Paso Walmart's or Buffalo grocery stores or synagogues or pulse nightclubs or Las Vegas strips. We just need to secure these schools. Think of the children!
I looked it up. It looks like about 50% of shootings that occur on school campuses occur by students. So you will now impact only half of the shootings. You'll need those metal detectors and millimeter wave scanners because the students are the ones bringing the guns half the time. I can't seem to find specific stats on rampage mass shootings to see if they have a different demographic. Are they mostly columbines? Or are they mostly Adam lanza's?
You can break an AR-15 down by it's pins and put it in a backpack easily. Throw in a few 30 round magazines and you're walking around with nearly a hundred rounds, a rifle, and room to store your homework.
The uvalde shooter just locked himself in one classroom and went to work killing everybody in it. Just like any student could no matter how much you lock the other classrooms from the outside, etc. Etc. And in fact in the uvalde situation, because the classrooms are locked from the outside as a security measure arriving police officers took 40 minutes to get into the classroom. You'll need to solve that too.
And then hopefully our kids aren't getting killed while buying new backpacks at Walmart and lunchables at the grocery store.

Sounds about as coherent as any GOP politician's stance on the issue, to be fair.
I mean seriously, what is the GOP's position on gun massacres? Seriously?
Aside from "this isn't the time" and "thoughts and prayers" and the ancient classic, the clownish "what about violent video games and rap music"?
Literally, aside from those three - what are they offering?
??
Do they work? Never heard of them.
I don't find that to be a good solution to be honest.

@Splinty, I think you should run for Texas Governor
Not very articulate, but $$$ into mental health is absolutely needed.
