Absolutely agree. Giving guns to teachers that don't want them and have never fired them, and the telling them a teenager on an adrenaline high is going to purst into your class with 2 semi-automatic weapons firing as fast as he can. We want you to pull your gun and try to shoot him before you get shot or pass out or shoot a student or 3 because you are shaking so much.
Bad idea since it was first conceived.
Who do you think the shooter is going to shoot first?
I agree,
1. Harden schools with a single point of entry secured with biometric ID checking. Cards will get lost or stolen.
2. Implement national universal background checks, which would include unsealing minor records - this shooter was 18, he did not commit any crimes, and or get convicted in the two days since his birthday.
3. Implement a national wide system of training and apprenticeships for active shooter training. NO Officer without actual experience is allowed on a case. "Fireteams" of 3 to 5 stationed within 3 to 5 minutes of schools via helicopter transport. They have NO other jobs while on duty, duty can be rotated so they are not too "bored" between shootings.
4. Automated gunshot detection systems in and around schools to detect the number, type, and location of gunshots in school and send that info to the designated team who will arrive within 5 minutes with knowledge of how many shooters, what kind of guns, and where they are located. (AI-based detection can give a "good guess" to the type of weapon, multiple microphones around and in the school can triangulate on the location, and possibly provide live voice/sound streams to the fire team so they can hear what is going on. This would be expensive. But I am sure there are smarter people that me that can figure out how to "timeshare" the teams or something to reduce the cost.
That will not STOP the problem, but it will seriously reduce it.
