Hugh Hewitt suggests schools ban trench coats after Texas shooting
Jacqueline Thomsen 2 hrs ago
MSNBC host and conservative commentator Hugh Hewitt on Monday suggested that schools ban trench coats days after a gunman reportedly wearing a trench coat opened fire at a Santa Fe, Texas, high school.
Hewitt, speaking on "The Hugh Hewitt Show" on Salem Radio Network on Monday in a clip posted by Media Matters, noted that the suspected shooter allegedly did not use an assault-style rifle. He instead used a shotgun and a .38 revolver belonging to his father, according to authorities.
Hewitt said that measures like universal background checks and a ban on assault-style weapons - as he said Democrats often call for in the wake of mass shooting - likely would not have prevented the Texas shooting.
"Point being, this is about identifying and segregating individuals away from guns who are not in the position to own them with due process protection," Hewitt said.
He said that local officials and politicians should take steps to identify those individuals.
"To the teachers and administrators out there, the trench coat is kind of a giveaway. You might just say no more trench coats. The creepy people, make a list, check it twice," Hewitt said.

57 times as many school shooting here compared to other industrialized countries.
Having extended family in Taiwan I know how their students are treated which is well. The kids there are respectful and want to get their PhD’s even at an early age. They all wear uniforms and it is ingrained in them to want to do well. They know the value of an education.
Maybe the attitudes in the various countries account for the mess that we have here in comparison.?
Hugh Hewitt is a BORING DOPE RINO!
Next on the agenda: banning metal.
It won't work: I'll just 3D-print myself.
The values are more likely the reason.
In many, if not most other cultures, kids are taught to value an education and respect adults.
Walker Texas Ranger ?
He,He
I just knew You would have an answer.
And if we just ban clothing as well, they could not conceal a saturday night special in their pants. And liberals will be especially happy because they would undoubtedly also get a major increase for their abortion businesses since we all know what young people would do. Clearly, this is sarcasm, folks.
Hugh Hewiit, that was a really dumb idea. About as dumb as the clear back pack idea that the Parkland school initiated.
JoMa

More rain slicker than trench coat but was my first thought...... stay safe !
