A good guy with a gun will stop a bad guy with a gun. He had the gun but was not a good guy. His pic needs to be published.

And herein lies the advantage of CCW teachers - they would be defending their school, their kids, themselves. Strong movitivations.

Looks like students need to self select to carry.

It’s sick.

The school is useless

The BoE is useless.

The county cops are useless.

The State is useless.

The FEDS are useless.

No wonder CNN rushed their propaganda. Have to set the narrative that it’s Trump/Rubio/NRAs fault first.

Well, for his fear of dying one death he must now die every day for as long as he shall live. God help him.

Why did he refuse to go inside if this is true?

Was the school campus cop armed?

Why hasn’t the blowhard sheriff resigned yet? There were enough screw-ups on his watch for him to go to jail.

Sherrif Israel, said the revelations made him “sick to [his] stomach.”

Israel said Petersen should have “Went in, address the killer, kill the killer.”

Let’s review. FIVE DIFFERENT LEVELS OF FAILURE!:

- FBI failed (”could not find him”)
- Sheriff’s department failed (39x)
- Schools failed (no discipline / no expulsion / no referral to PD)
- FL Child Services failed
- this guy failed

The only people who went by the book? The adoptive parents who called the cops ... and the gun dealer who made sure everything went by the book.

And we know who’s the only one the leftists want to blame.

Gun-grabbing Broward County Sheriff Scott Israel was at the CNN town hall, and attacked Dana Loesch for questioning the law enforcement response, including missed signs in the years before the shooting.

Now it turns out his department may have failed on-site as well.

He is not a very good advertisement for the “You don’t need guns, police will protect you because the cops won’t” crowd.

He is a better advertisement for “the “You’d better get a gun to protect yourself” crowd.

Well, I’ve never been in a “live fire” situation, but I’ve heard of both heroes and cowards in such a situation.

Since I’ve never been in that situation, I don’t feel comfortable judging him or his actions.

I’d like to think I’d be Rambo in such a situation, the hero of the day, but you just never know. Never know what you’ll actually turn into. We can all imagine we’d be the tough guy, but it’s easy to imagine such fantasies behind the keyboard.

Maybe someone who has been in such a situation can judge him rightfully, but I don’t think I can.

It’s certainly sad, that’s for sure. I’m sure he feels pretty devastated about it too.

Is this correct ?

He did not have what it takes.

His duty was to run towards the gun fire, which takes enormous courage, and why our soldiers and police command respect. Now the third leg of the stool failed. Local police failed after 39 engagments, FBI have two highly detailed warnings, and the armed guard at the school who lost his nerve.

The guard will have a hard time dealing with this.

Let his failure be a lesson to those, who now see it and will know what to do.

The FBI management should be fired.

Sheriff Israel should be fired.

This is more wrong from the national media: They are burying the lede: He is RETIRING with a taxpayer funded lifetime pension. For a bald faced act of COWARDICE. And the national media isn’t mentioning it. This should be THE LEDE!!!

I have never been in a situation like the one the school officer faced.

But I feel like I would have taken a deep breath and said to myself, “This is your moment. Win this. Stop this guy.”

And quietly opened the door......

To meet my fate or his.
