A well trained person with a firearm would most likely use it because that is what you would be trained to do.

You mean like the police did?

The caveat being you need to fear for your life.

The difference is that they are with the kids and there at the beginning. Not cops who have a commander who is usually an azzhole in these situations and ordering cops to stand down.

You seem to be not open to many answers to the problem. Has to be a reason for that. Just poo poo everything. Seems to be your style.

Wasn't that the excuse the police officers used?

O.K. you need to be in imminent danger in your current position. The cops feared for their life in the hypothetical situation that they would move forward and do their job. Preventing parents into the school wasn't much of a threat to them.

You seem to be upset that anyone would question what you are offering as answers.

Has to be a reason for that

Because I question whether there really is a solution that would a) work, and b) possibly be passed.

Fact is armed teachers and lunch ladies save kids lives. A simple search on Florida Guardian Program will return plenty of evidence. Armed citizens are the best deterrent to the mass shooters. Even the Buffalo supermarket shooter wrote that in his manifesto.

And you assume that unlike the well trained, well armed police he would immediately engage the shooter.

People who are not police have stopped mass shootings several times.

Sometimes, a police officer is there, close enough.

School staff who understand what they are supposed to do, which is what the training does, tend to do well.

The problem with police is it takes them, at minimim, several minutes to get there, if they are responding to a 911 call.

The school staff is there inside the incident.

The only people accepted to be armed responders in schools are volunteers.

You assume people who have taken the responsibility to protect children they know, would ignore their training and do nothing.

Talk about stereotyping.

Other people had ideas other than me and it seems nothing is remotely possible in your opinion.

All I did was respond to your earlier post claiming what people always do in one of these shootings as though anything other than the ordinary response a teacher may make is not human nature. It seems to be you that is upset about anyone questioning your always righteous opinion.

That is all. Good day.

Honestly? I can see nothing from the GOP that would make any difference and certainly nothing from the Democrats that would offer any solutions. The time for solutions has long since passed.

He wasn’t even on school get grounds during the shooting.

He seemed to find the safety of TV cameras pretty quickly.

>>>Or was there no lockable door? The classrooms were connected.<<<

The shooter entered the second classroom through the connecting door. Either the teacher in the second classroom must have already locked the door to the hallway, or the shooter locked it because the cops were dithering about getting keys from the janitor.

The connecting door may well not have been lockable. I have no idea what sort of door it was. I have seen schools where connected classrooms were separated by accordian doors taking up nearly the whole width of the classroom so that one large room could be formed.

Yes, I have been thinking the same about the teacher only having a split second to decide.

Email notification? Oh my! Yes, I hope a reporter digs in and finds out! I was wondering about the school’s alert system before, but never saw anything on it.

Good post all the way.

This was an orchestrated slaughter, so the leos needed for such an orchestration had to be trained to follow the orders from on high. They did as they were told, allowing the orchestrated slaughter to run.

Never forget the demon rat rulers have zero respect for the right to life of the most innocent sensing humans in the womb, so they do not hesitate to orchestrate slaughter of children when they want to run a narrative. EVIL is the hallmark of the demon rat and globalist rulers.

If you have any pics or see any and get a chance, please forward them to me here...if you can....if not then no worries. Ones of him actually on the ground.

I haven’t seen any of him at the school even though he supposedly showed up afterwards

Thanks for the information. I wonder whether the media will ever ask more questions about the school’s security measures. Then, other schools can learn how to best protect their students. But, they mostly just seem to want to talk about gun control.

Appreciate your diligence.

I am a certified non-techie and may not be of use.

But I will certainly keep an antenna out.
