Did someone binge on bitch flakes this morning? Don't ever wonder why the name "pearl clutcher" fits you so well.
But you're lying!
He literally said he had a round table with the families from Santa Fe about having "one door that goes in and out of the school"
So take your self righteous @ss and shove it. Your pompous attitude and condescending comments have convinced me that you are smart and very important. Said no one ever.
Yes. One door that goes IN AND OUT. You've never been to a secured facility, have you? There are lots of doors that open from the inside outward and have no exterior knobs for entry. Many times there will be a bolt lock that you can use a key to access from the outside but otherwise, there's no way to open the door from the outside. That would be an excellent way to secure a school. It's used in countless other buildings all around the United States. It's security 101 to limit access points from the outside of the building.
Once there is a single point of entry, you can then control the entry. This can be done with double door entrance with bullet proof glass and push button access from the outside. My son's school is secured via this means. What it does is controls access to the building and if someone isn't wanted inside, they aren't getting inside.
As we get more information, there were so many failures here it's hard to know where to begin. I don't think it would be controversial for any of us to agree on those failures.
- Can't have exterior door access to the school unlocked and unguarded
- Must have a security officer at the single point of entry for the school
- When a guy drives his car into a ditch and starts firing from outside the school, the building goes on lockdown. This should be a push button process to secure the building from all outside intrusions and should take only seconds.
- The police needed to respond a lot faster. If there was contact when on the outside, I can't fathom why the building wasn't locked down.
- The first moments in these situations are critical. They must breach the building right away. Waiting an hour is just unforgivable.
If these measures were taken, all those children are alive and the shooter is dead. This isn't complicated. We must take basic steps to prevent these things from happening.
Instead, we had open access to the building via multiple doors. We had unprepared police. We had a very slow response from inside and outside the school. We have total confusion and no real plan for dealing with this. We had an unacceptable period of time pass with no action. Total incompetence all around. And because of that, we have over a lot of children who are dead and 2 teachers as well.
The whole line we're hearing from Democrats that more guns doesn't solve anything is pretty rich as they give addresses while surrounded by guns to protect them. And after the Capitol was breached on January 6th, they secured it with a fence and lots of guns and increased security. But then, as they said, more guns doesn't help, right?
The reality is these people are so caught up in politics they have lost their humanity. This happens on both sides. They want the issues instead of the solutions. These problems could be solved almost instantly at the school level and then we'd have to figure out how to tackle the other difficulties with ease of access of guns for people who have significant red flags and the overall mental health of our society. We should stop waiting on government to solve our problems because these are things we must do. We must have stronger communities. We must have more unity of purpose on some essential levels to deal with these issues. We don't have to fight about everything.
So the question is: Do you want to solve problems or do you want the issue for politics? I pray to God that you're not interested in the politics over the lives of kids. So far the results are mixed at best. You seem to always play politics with everything and you're not alone on either side here. How about we work together to solve problems instead?
