And who's gonna pay for 4 guards per school in a big state like Texas. A guard could earn as high as $100,000 per year.

Just last month, the governor cut $211m from mental healthcare programs in Texas. And cost of running guards may even likely run higher than that.

Would people be willing to have an increase in their taxes to make NRA happy?
Same people who spent 40 billion on Ukraine! They should borrow another money from China.

I believe this will make him put more money back into the mental health care programs.

AR-15 rifles are feared because they fire high-velocity bullets at triple the speed of a handgun, are accurate over long distances, and cause devastating wounds.

Parents would have chopped wotowoto too if they let the parents barge in. Doing so could have helped save more lives till some tactical unit arrives.

I lived in Nigeria, when a lot of police men hear the sounds of rifle being used by robbers, some of them take off their uniforms and flee the scene.
how big is a classroom? A 5.56mm is not as devastating as a 7.62mm fired by AK-47s at close ranges, Soldiers can carry more 5.56mms than 7.62mm. Close battle quarters are won by guns with short barrels.

Anyway a bullet is a bullet and when sent to you , the purpose is not to treat you.

There are 130,930 schools in the USA.
Multiply it by 4 them by $100,000. That's north of 50 billion dollars per year.

Simple truth is that the states can't afford this.
As per the federal gov providing grants, there are other competing projects that need funds as well.

Maybe the states with lax gun laws can approach the NRA for funds.

Why not arm the active teachers and train them on how to neutralize threats? If its too expensive to hire guards.
At college we had a fully functional police station that was government owned and operated.

This mentally sick had been arrested for making threats. hours before he had been reported to the FBI.

Your argument makes no sense at all.

---A tale of 2 presidents---one congratulating academic achievement---another will be a speaker at the NRA convention in Houston---300 miles from Uvalde Texas---where 19 kids were gruesomely killed---

Obama congratulating Jacob Philadelphia, the 5 year old kid who touched his hair in the Oval office:



Trump on his NRA speech tonight:

Exactly. The policemen have family too they need to return to. One can tell from the sounds of guns going-off what type of weapon is being used. It's no surprise that the bullets tore some kids apart that they were unidentifiable till a DNA test is concluded.

I remember the police unions warning about their jobs becoming more difficult when Abbott removed the training clause as part of the lax laws on gun control last September. We are now seeing the results.

NRA and the pro-gun politicians ( NRA donations) will keep sacrificing kids and other non -important Americans till they themselves get hit.
I'm really exhausted by all these debates, when Americans decide to wake up good for them, till then let people continue to die needlessly

Arm the teachers. Designate a few. That makes sense to me. Train them to handle threats like this.
Another thing. Have one point of entrance to a school.
Last thing. Have politicians pushing for police defunding run out of town

---So teachers can be armed with guns--- but discouraged from teaching by banning books 'perceived' by right-wing parties to be harming their kids---Arming teachers is the most ridiculous argument ever put forward---Teachers are not trained in law enforcement---rather they are trained educators---

---Nobody is against the 2nd A right to bear arms---what we want is proper checks and regulations in buying and owning guns---similar to other countries like U.K., Australia, Japan, New Zealand---

The NRA and Trump have both called for having guns at school in the past. However, guns are banned at the NRA convention for safety reasons in previous years i.e.
(stopping the threat at the source instead of a gun fight). Same NRA are also banning this year. You can see the hypocrisy. They know gun control works.

Let us imagine teachers having Assault rifles strapped to the back of teachers just in case a mass shooter barges into the school or classroom. You know, a pistol won't cut it and won't be a fair fight cheesy

Why stop there

The bull must be taken by the horns.

Full casual body armor for both teacher and students
Everyone must carry a gun. Teachers and students.
Introduce tactical active Shooter response as an alternative to Phys Ed.


The scourge of school shooting stops now!

Murica! Fu-ck yeah!

[quote author=budaatum post=113222481]We are talking about a specific wiki page that ben mentioned, though in his fashion he did not provide a link as evidence of his claim!

Can that specific page not be edited? /quote]

If it is not locked, then yes, anyone can edit it.

Also, all edits on Wikipedia have edits histories with details of who edited, what section they edit and at what times they did so you can check if someone maliciously edited a page or section. If so bots or admins would restore to previous editing.

I'd mention that Wikipedia is pro-Left in many ways. There are many pro-Left topical pages you can't edit.

The schools have huge compounds.
Are you implying if fire breaks out then everyone has to step out of the compound?
A single entrance point will prevent or rather dissuade guys with guns from entering to shoot up if they have to be frisked.

American schools have big compounds and playground; however, they are usually a single building. i.e. all lassrooms and teachers/admin offices are in that one building. The schools will usually have one main entrance often times with double doors and other single doors for exits. Note that the gym and indoor spoor are usually also inside that one building.

AR-15s are semi autos. They are not assault rifles. You have to pull the trigger every time. Yes they have a high capacity magazine which means you don't have to reload.
A glock is an automatic one. you can release all bullets say 8 by holding down the trigger.
As I mentioned a bullet fired at you is to not to treat your illnesses,

Stop lying . a huge compound with only one building.
African schools some of which I have worked for have smaller compounds ( private schools) and have multiple blocks.
Safety measures in British curriculum demand that schools have no more than a two storied building where learning is going on.You can look up CIS regulations for instance.
your ignorance says it all

Failed economist benalvino3 will not see what to lament with now.

Ignorantly or knowingly trying to blame Biden for inflation forgetting that Nigeria is the current headquarters of inflation let's blame Biden for that one too.

If before the midterms this so called GQP campaign propaganda of gas prices and inflation which they have no solution to declines I refuse to believe that the majority of Americans are dumb and will want to focus on a world wide issue against a national attack on democracy that the GQP is currently engaged in e.g trying to end Roe, against gun control, voting rights etc.

An AR-15 is an assault rifle?
What a failure. Its a semi automatic. Need to press the trigger every time to release a bullet

An automatic weapons only needs to hold the trigger. Automatic weapons can be set to auto.
With an AR-15 there is some gadget you can obtain that turns it full auto. Dont remember the name I am not a military person

Stop playing word games.

Guns are innocent, killers are guilty.
A determined killer will find a thousand weapons or tools.
Nice, France, 2016?, a terrorist drove a truck roughshod over a tightly packed croud.
By the time he was stopped with a good gun, 84 persons had died.

Trucks should be banned too in heavily populated centers?

Knives too. Some British terrorist used a butchers knife (cleaver) to behead someone some years ago. That should be banned too smiley smiley
