 Redford High |
Mat |
In the early 1970s my wife attended Redford High School in Detriot. It was a school with over 5,000 students. The school had guards at the doors, the students wore picture IDs and the doors were chained shut once classes began. Check points for entry at other times of the day and a large police presence.
It can be done, but not with an open campus and an unwillingness by administors and taxpayers to establish the policies and pay the price, including changing the enviroment. Just look at how airports have changed from 40 years ago.

It's a red herring in the argument against arming teachers. The idea can be made to appear less reasonable if opponents can portray advocates as wanting to force teachers to be armed, or can draw attention to teachers who may be uncomfortable with being armed. |
And amazing how well it works too! Sick!

I think it also is a good idea to consider posting armed guards in schools. Metal detectors would be a good idea too, as unbelievable as that sounds to my middle-aged ears. There really is nothing more precious than the lives of children.
Also, as much as I realize how difficult recruitment and retaining of law enforcement officers can be, there just has to be some way to know and make sure these guys or gals in law enforcement actually have the backbone necessary to do their job. If they aren’t willing to put their lives on the line to protect KIDS, they have absolutely no business wearing the badge! |
Roger that!
