Even bullet proof windows and heavy security doors which are locked down during school hours are not 100% but a lot safer than relying on teachers to get it right under fire.


I have no idea what any of this will cost. If I'm thinking of the perfect scenario; you are thinking of the most imperfect scenario. I think we have to be willing to accept the average result. I'd rather accept the result where people can fight back, fairly do so, and in a timely manner. I dont disagree that sh!t could really hit the fan and backfire but I think the overall trend of mass shootings would go down.
