Gun Free Zones aka Free Fire Zones.
Hysteria over school shootings is a means to an end and not intended as a solution to the alleged issue. They simply represent an opportunity to tighten social controls over the public while the public is not thinking clearly.
Free Gun Zones are much better than Gun Free Zones...
I would suggest that armed on-site security (AKA School Resource Officers- SRO’s) is a good step, but there’s typically only 1 officer available even where such programs are in place.
To do this right... or at least better... would require a panic button in every office that links directly to the SRO. This eliminates the problem of the SRO being on one end of a campus when the trouble is on the other. In that way, you would at least have a chance to reduce the impact of a shooting more quickly.

I do wanna know how the heck you write a computer model to simulate the behavior of a deluded killer.
Now that is a dumb statement. Only a computer model could come up with that. The big deterrent in this case is the latent presence of firearms, which the psychopath doesn't even show up. The below study deals with that point.
