“P.S. — No rational parents should ever send their children on a daily basis to a facility that requires armed guards.”

Can’t agree with this.

We home schooled and felt the need to be armed. Plenty of guns in our “school.”

A very secure fence around every school.

Just like a maximum security prison.

"Armed guards at each door"

Better..."armed guards" in every classroom.

My mother (all 5' 0" of her) taught first and second grades. If some asshole had entered her classroom to menace HER students, she would have eviscerated them with a nail file, or tried to. Oh, and she could shoot better than most men.

Let any adult school staffer who volunteers CCW in school, give them training and vetting, and buy their ammo.

THE LAST ASSUMPTION IS PURE BS. Audrey Hale’s Final Message Before Nashville School Shooting Rampage Hale—who police said identified as transgender—messaged their former teammate Averianna Patton that they planned to die by suicide and that she would see it on the news.

“So basically that post I made on here about you, that was basically a suicide note. I’m planning to die today. THIS IS NOT A JOKE!!!! You’ll probably hear about me on the news after I die,” Hale wrote to Patton on Instagram, in messages shared with NewsChannel5.

Nashville Police Reveal Why Trans Shooter Didn’t Attack First Planned Target

IT did not attack a different location 1ST because there was too much security.

* PURE BS* Hale identifying as transgender and having a manifesto could point to motivation for the attack since Tennessee Governor Bill Lee (R) signed a bill banning transitioning medical services for children earlier this month. Puberty blockers, hormone treatments, and surgeries are not allowed to be given to children under the new law, according to the Tennesseean THE TENNESSEAN IS A lS A LEFTIST RAG.

You are parents, not armed staff who are paid to guard a facility.

Armed guards at each door


Useful, but not at all necessary.

There should be armed staff members, preferably 5-6 for a larger school.

The police arrived and made entry fairly quickly, but it was still 14 minutes from first shots to last.

FAMILIES need to be strong enough to actually REPORT persons who are showing signs of mental imbalance.

Too often-—the after action questions reveal that the family-—not just one or 2 persons-—KNEW that person was not to be trusted.

MAYBE a bounty system——

A school voucher program is in the Texas legislature right now
Hopefully they will pass it and parents can get their kids out of failing schools. Then those schools will realize they have to answer for their failures.
The state is taking over Houston ISD. HISD says they have made improvements. That “improvement” was one school went from average grades of “f” to “d”. Probably by adding points to the students real scores.
I remember when my school integrated back in the 60’s the black kids that were making good grades were denigrated by their peers for trying to be like “whitey”
My neighbor is about to take their kids out of a local school that is going to a 4 day school week. Their son was being bullied by 2 boys and was suspended when he defended himself (oh, he only got one day suspension and they got 2).

IMO-—28 year old still living at home was a BIG RED FLAG—all by itself.

ALL that fencing should be used at a facility for the mentally unbalanced.
We are living daily, with people who can go off at any moment

I don’t even want public school teachers “teaching” my children, let alone being armed around them.

From an article:
“Researchers found that voucher programs in some states led to worse test score results than natural disasters like Hurricane Katrina and even the COVID-19 pandemic.

To sum it up: early voucher studies with small sample sizes showed mostly positive results, while the past decade or so of statewide results have largely shown poor outcomes, especially around test scores.”
Yes the schools performances are worse after the kids that want to learn leave, and the remaining students continue to fail.
It’s obvious the Left wants to keep the problem in place and use it to push their agenda. Gun free zones are target rich environments. But people are waking up finally

Reportedly, the parents were unaware of her little arsenal. She had sold a gun she owned some years ago and the parents thought she had none. Now, you might think they should have been searching their home and her room, and you might be right, but they did not, and therefore did not know about her guns.

She reportedly was on the autism spectrum and was also “under a doctor’s care” for “an emotional disorder”. Yes, she was still living with her parents. Many young adults with autism do, as they can’t make it on their own out there in the adult world, or it takes them much longer to manage that.

Could we start with bullet-proof entry doors? Our school entry doors are all glass. I have not checked to see if a bullet would shatter it. Usually the office is right next to these doors. Anyone in the entry office is vulnerable.

yes, keep an eye on the mentally ill. Especially the ones who express it through gender dysphoria.

Correctly identify risks. That includes transgenders, but excludes psycho-babble like gender dysphoria. 1.5 million Americans don’t suddenly become mentally ill with “gender dysphoria”. There is something else at work here.

Every school, public and private, should be mandated to have a security threat assessment and be required to implement the recommendations. The Feds should take the money from Joe’s Ukrainian slush fund to pay for the upgrades.

It would be cheaper to have hardened entrances and exits than to pay wages and benefits. I would still hire a couple of security guards to roam the halls and to monitor video feeds and alarms.

That dead bitch shot out the glass of the locked doors.

There appeared to be plenty of camera coverage of the shooting event. Was anyone tasked with watching the cameras in real time?
