That�s a good point

i like the idea of modeling our schools like how the japs do it

or give the kids bat shields, oh yeah

the dogs can locate explosives and firearms......i guess everyone wants to tell us how it cant be done instead of how it can.....they check people at airports and it takes forever....havent seen any planes from the US hi-jacked since we started tho------ checking that many students would take time but it would go a hell of a lot quicker if you limit what they can carry and wear on campus or we can do nothing and keep getting the same results....

Its Ok, I have solved the problem or at least half. Separate the girls/boys. Girls arent shooting up schools. Then you can concentrate on only half the student pop. It would make it a lot easier.

In contrast with the above mentioned idea of taxing guns & ammo, this at least spreads the cost evenly across everyone. This strikes me as more fair than singling out lawful firearms owners.

All for it

My property taxes have gone up 80k in 3 years. Please. Mercy.

Not at all. It just needs to be a real solution and not a band-aide.

Sadly that money doesnt make it to the schools.

How about a tax on guns/ammo that funds jobs for veterans as school security offers? In return, no further restrictions on gun owners?

I'm just trying to think of a compromise that could ACTUALLY pass into law.

how about stop wasting millions on sports and pay for the things that actually matter?

how much money does HS football generate? along with the tournaments that are held in the facilities? I don't know the answer to that.

You sir just won the internet.

Congrats Bigbob!

I thought about making schools a secure zone with limited perimeter entrances with metal detectors and trained armed security. The problem is that those who are doing the shootings would find a seam or another way to get their warped mentally ill message across. Put up a fence and they run a vehicle thru it to a area where students have gathered. Or maybe the shooter waits for a off school event. Typically these shootins happen in a very short time. By the time security gets there some would have been killed.

To me the answer is in how kids are raised and what creates mental illness for them. Need to focus on the why not the how. The common thing between these school shootings is that the shooter is in his mind getting even or punishing a certain group. Most often those who have bullied, teased, or ostracized the shooter. Or teachers or school officials they hold a grudge against.
