Additionally, at least one teacher in each building should be designated to be trained in the use of firearms as a back up to the officer in extreme cases...

They do have police in the lobby but they like most people get complacent, anyone can walk in and shoot the cop and he wouldn't have even made eye contact with you.

All the schools should have classroom doors that automatically lock when closed with small windows with security wire in them so you can't reach in and open the door from the inside. This would give some level of protection to those inside. Schools can't be prisons with armed guards walking around. Nobody wants to live in that kind of fear.

Think again.
These games have repercussions with them.
They desensitize a person’s thinking BETWEEN right and wrong.
Not to mention taking God out of his life “thou shall not kill” just sets the stage.
Put prayer back in school.
Put “Pledge of Allegiance” back in school.
Wait for it……..put “PARENTS” back in their lives.
Anybody notice a common denominator in the guys doing this.
They all go commando style, hence, video games.

It doesn't matter what laws you pass on guns. If you can't stop illegals and drugs from crossing the border, what makes you think you will ever stop guns once they are outlawed. I agree that young people playing thousands of hours of violent video games can be a big problem. I bet most criminals who commit a crime with a gun never bought it legally.

Also change what we watch on TV, Shootings, stabbing & all sorts of killings. Then there are shows like CSI that show a criminal how to hide his tracks. Go back the way TV use to be in the 50s & 60s...They were all comedy or Cowboy & Indian movies. I sure do not remember any violence on the Andy Griffith show or I Dream of Jeanie, or any other show back then. Kids today watch the video games & TV & think it's OK to kill for kicks, They have put no value on life.

This world has become so desensitized with all the violence and wars going on in the world, violent movies and video games. These video games like Call of Duty, show people being shot, falling down dead and getting back up to be killed again. In the real world, you don't get back up if you are shot dead. How can young people understand the consequences of things like that? Why do movies have to be so violent?

When the Sandy Hook massacre happened, a minister said that people are asking, "why did God let this happen?" His answer was that God was not allowed in school anymore. Not everyone believes in God, there are many different religions whose Gods may be different, but we also took "God" out of the schools. Nativities can't be displayed without "offending" people. This world has become nuts.

It's like we say here...if you don't like a post or a forum, don't look at it or read it. If you don't like something, ignore it, but just because one person or a group doesn't like it then it has to be banned??

You can say Happy Holiday back to me when I say Merry Christmas to you and that's fine, but I will still say it.

If a person is determined to kill someone they will use guns, knives, bombs,anything they can. It's not about just guns. We do not have mental health facilities anymore. I heard a women call into a talk show who said she has an adopted daughter in her late teens who has a mental problem and who has been severely violent since she was 18 months old. She's afraid of her. Her insurance only covers 90 days of mental health care which is certainly not enough. When asked, she said she would absolutely have her in a mental health facility where she could get help with people who are trained to deal with mental health.

As I understand it, the Principal responded to the entrance when the gunman had begun shooting his way in. She was probably the first one killed...

What if she had a revolver in her desk and grabbed that before heading to the disturbance (gunfire)?
