You are absolutely correct. The most meaningful and quickest way to have direct impact would be to instill extreme security measure in schools so they are no longer soft and easy targets.

Paying for it IS the issue as well as some of the parents themselves who oppose it and apparently would rather have children die than to have their children 'feel' like they are in a 'jail' (insert any similar drama llama statement here that you have seen from a parent interview).

So yeah people without kids don't want to pay for it because they already pay 'too much' for schools they never used with their tax money. Parents with kids don't want to pay for it because it is 'unfair' to them to have a special tax levied on them or because they disagree with the solution despite it being their children who would be protected.

Yeah ....metal detectors at all entry ways, SROs in every school, ballistic glass where needed, centrally locking doors (that can also be locked/unlocked from the inside for safety reasons), and improved communication systems would have an immediate and tangible impact while everything else gets sorted out. But umm ...yeah

Never worked for banks. A matter of fact it caused more harm. Not sure where you all get your evidence this will make schools safer. You're just winging it. Like 90% of your posts...
