Trump needs to issue an Executive Order requiring all public schools by the start of the new school year to secure their buildings. This should include metal detectors and x-ray scanners at main entrances, locked down and surveilled non-main entrances, and uniformed Federal or police officers at every school during school hours. The funds to do this should come from our Federal coffers. I’m sure we have enough wasted money in the system to use for this.

The schools would need to adjust their schedules to allow for the added time students will need to enter the schools.

I’d love to see the Democrats fight this order. IT NEEDS TO BE GIVEN IMMEDIATELY!

If he does this, school shootings will virtually disappear.

Schools need mental detectors, not metal detectors.

And the mental detectors to do more than “talk therapy” with the ticking time bombs!

Daddy’s guns.

Radio is replaying audio advising gun owners to “lock up their firearms” to prevent such tragedies.

Right.../s

Um, NO. Over my dead body.

Federal government will NOT be commanding anything to do with education, including safety.

Reacting to a single crisis with blanket overreach by the Federal government is exactly what progressives want. Your suggestion sounds like it came out of Zero’s desk.

Take a big freaking breath and get back to us.

School bus shootings, not so much.

I think the kid stole the guns from Daddy. So much for raising the age limit to 21.

this isn’t a school safety issue this is a parent’s and adults in a childs life teach your kids right from wrong issue, teach your kids how to handle their problems and monitor your kids issue, teach your kids they are not the center of the universe issue. Parents and guardians need to take their responsibilities seriously and do their part, not expect govt to handle parental tasks like discipline their kids or worse coddle them as many parents and guardians are doing and creating a bigger mess of kids.

I thought it was “Assault Weapons” that were the problem? If we just banned all those assault weapons...-s-

No “Assault Weapon” was used, nor in the deadliest shooting, the Virginia tech shooting. Or the Texas tower shooting...

Are they going to go after shotguns now?
Handguns?
Hunting rifles?
All guns? (Yes they will do that)
-they will never stop. It will never be enough until we are all defenseless.
