I've advocated running for the school board.

THAT'S trench warfare but very satisfying in that, you know people that SHOULD hear conservative words and mind set ... DO.

It's a lot easier and faster to run for an election than to fight four plus years of MORE intensified socialist indoctrination.

As to your comment;

Those good teachers are known and would be picked up again ... yes .... clean house completely.

“Clear backpacks are the only backpacks that will be permitted on campus,”

What a retarded solution. What’s next? See-through pants and clear plastic boxes? And who’s standing around looking at all this transparent stuff? Do they even have the right to demand something like this? If I was in High School, I’d tell them to stuff it - I’m using my own backpack.

A student can be so bat**** that authorities are called 45 times, and as long as the student has a certain last name or certain hair texture, nothing will be done about it? And clear backpacks will make everyone “feel” safe?

If you tried to publish a story like this the editor would trash it immediately. “No one would believe it.”

Are female students and female teachers going to be required to have clear purses? Students have clear jackets during cool weather? Students are mad that the government (school) is infringing on their rights but the students want to infringe on mine here in Wisconsin, a thousand miles from FLorida, when I didn’t have anything to do with the shooting. More liberal nonsense, but we’re used to it.

Another knee-jerk policy that accomplishes little beyond inconveniencing the innocent.

Who sold them on the idea of the clear backpacks?

Who got the contract to sell them to the school?

Who is he/she related to?

Who gets the kickback or "finders fee"?

"What's In The Backpack?"

"Just books."

I can go one “better” (read: worse).

My son’s private high school has proposed, in light of this school shooting, prohibiting backpacks/bags altogether. Kids will only be allowed to walk around with their iPads (all books and work already done on them). Jackets, phones, lunch etc. must be kept in lockers. No word on how athletes who don’t drive are supposed to get their equipment (bats, mitts, lacrosse sticks, etc) to and from school. Or how art students are going to carry their portfolio stuff around with no bag.

Stupid knee-jerk reaction. There hasn’t been so much as a scuffle at this school of 600, let alone any sort of threat.

What's next? Clear plastic clothes so we can be sure there are no hidden weapons? No doors on bath rooms? New schools already have unpleasant classrooms with a small window that can't be fully opened, thick doors that are locked all the time, unpleasant lighting, very sterile decorations.

Our children are now drones, punished for independent thought, totally devoted to passing tests and not having a space to learn from experience.

Major sporting events are beginning to require this as well.

I noticed in the photo you posted.

Boss Hogg got a promotion and a new title: "Student Reporter".

I’ve made that same exact proposal for the failing Baltimore Schools. Reading, Writing, Mat and history.

I’ve been told that Baltimore history education begins at the civil rights movement.

4000 students is way too big for a school too.

Clear back packs. Just like the ones required to enter Gilette Stadium.

Lax gun laws are not the problem... fhere is a reason these things overwhelmingly happen in public schools... isnt a law problem is a failure within society to raise and reinforce decency and ethical behavior.

Lauren Hogg, David Hogg's sister adds her thoughts.

Another teen age rocket scientist who wants "common since" gun laws.
