Yea, this would have prevented the shooting.
At least one student, and probably many more, is realistic about this.

Those who would give up liberty for a little temporary safety deserve neither.

It’s going to make it harder for them to hide their “stash” and Tide Pods.
To: BBell
Sure thing then the sleeping guard would still be able to avoid a confrontation

How about getting rid of misfit cops.

Clear backpacks have been a mandatory requirement on many campuses for years.
MSD should have required them, what with their open acceptance of criminal teens and deputies too scared or too sleepy.

I know having clear backpacks will help with security, but now all my privacy will be gone, Lizzie McNichol wrote on Twitter. I wish it didnt come to this.Much better to infringe on the rights of 330 million, and to open the door nice and wide for tyrants and mass democide, than to inconvenience 3300 children, right kid?

I guess we know the next murderer will be wearing a nametag and be carrying his weapons in any of several ways that do not involve a backpack.
Or wrapped in gym clothes inside a clear backpack that is ignored because, after all, it’s officially safe because it is clear.
Bureaucratic bandaids.

Having the outside doors as "exit only" during the day would have prevented this. Monitor the entrances would have helped...especially in real time.
This simply should not have happened.
See through backpacks?? Someone is gonna clean up on that little market. You can bet someone has already approached the school.
To: Teacher317
Lizzie’s a smart kid for seeing through what is in fact, nothing more than a pacifier so officials can give the false impression that the problem solved to people they hope will take some comfort from the empty gesture.

Did that last creep carry his rifle in a backpack?

Kyra Parrow’s smarter than Lizzie, not even fooled by the illusion.
Fortunately Kyra’s a senior who can soon leave this nonsense.

Is that a Bible?
God forbid you bring THAT to school. I believe liberals hate the Bible more than they hate guns.

I’m guessing it started as a dictionary.

ID cards?
Somebody better tell Hoggboy, who was out there on Twitter today whining about how racist Voter ID Laws are

Ive never seen a transparent backpack and did not even know they existed.
