    Very sad. I feel for the kids. I'd be going to school wearing a vest.

    No.  I am a firearms fan and a fan of the Constitution.  I also prefer to protect these kids in a way that will actually work.

    People should be asking that kids not be placed amongst the fish in a barrel.

    Or maybe you all would prefer to get on that airplane now without any security checks?

    When the next white cop shoots an unarmed black man will you be blaming the gun?

    Let me know when the outrage gets to be enough to march on some inner city streets.

    Actually, here in TX, a lot is changing.  It has nothing to do with legislation per se, but a ton of schools are arming school personnel in one way or another and have a lot of public support.  They are also doing “safety audits”, where a 3rd party comes in and looks for defiencies and educates school officials on how to best secure their individual campuses.
    Also, there are “Active Shooter Awareness” and seminars being offered to the public for free by law enforcement agencies almost every other week it seems.  Some are requiring teachers to take the equivalent of combat first aid courses to be able to better respond and reduce loss of life if a shooting should take place.  
    Of course, since this is driven by local districts and not legislation, it is not a statewide initiative or mandate.  More and more districts are jumping on board, though.  
    I know that there are plenty of you that are against this approach, but I fully support it.  Better damn well believe that these safety measures will be a deciding factor as to where my child goes to school. 
    In TX, it is just a reality that firearms will ALWAYS be available to the public, so this approach seems the most logical.  It is very proactive while the rest of the country waits for politicians to “put a little fixer on it”.

    Now here come the inevitable “more guns is not the answer, but I don’t have any answers” comments.
    Who wants to place bets on whether or not one of these “armed” schools experiences a massacre?  My money is on the armed school.

    Don't forget you are also a guy that wants the government to stay out of people's lives... but also wants them to catch warning signs for potential shooters (presumably by monitoring behaviours).

    In other words... conflicted. You don't truly know where you really are at.

    There isn’t any affective solution I have heard yet. I personally don’t have a good idea to end school shootings, but I haven’t heard any ideas that would actually change anything 
    This is because you haven't learned to learn. There have been great suggestions made here that are even moderate in nature (compromising). And of course... there are models many other countries chose to utilize and have experienced great success with as well.

    You want the status quo. We get it. Don't try and sell everyone a turd. The answer is there... the will is not. Blood is on your hands.

    No, I actually want the police to do the job that they claim to do, serve and protect.  Not shoot unarmed civilians and people's pets.

    What part of
    "shall not be infringed"
    do you not understand?!
    This is the hilarious part of the argument that other countries just shake their heads at. What about the citizens of the country having the right to live and their lives not being infringed by some lunatic with an AR-15?

    "But God Damn if someone is going to infringe on my rights to have a weapon!!!"

    When there is a problem (gun violence is a problem), law makers are able to CHANGE things to stop the problem being a problem, or at least attempt to do so. There has been plenty of government policies and bills across the world that have amendments made from the initial document, including the USA
    Stop making so much sense.
