As folks here and the news about the heroes of different shootings have pointed out, if we had armed security at schools the shootings would not have been as bad. So lets pony up and embrace it instead of just deciding the graduating class of 2019 in education has to step up where we can't and arm and train themselves for us.
My goal would be to put two real police officers and real life metal detectors at each entrance the school decides it needs. This is in addition to any "resource" officers already wandering about.
We'll pay for this with a tax on new and used guns and ammo sales. Guns have a longer serviceable life than even my Windows XP computer so I bet we'll need to tax private sales / transfers as well. This is not a big deal to me as I live someplace where every sale of our much more often used cars are taxed.
Is my security plan full proof? No, so every Haden, Hannah, Madison, Ashley, Alyssa, Alexis, Samantha, Jessica, Taylor and that one kid Jacob who plans on teaching High School next year should consider for themselves if them having a gun on campus creates more of a security risk vs benefit. We'll deal with security flaws as they come up though instead of forcing Madison to arm herself at her own cost.
