Abundant Life Christian School shooting: 4 killed, 5 hurt

At least one person was. Hence the shootings. SHooter found dead, likely from self, but no info.

Shootings happen even where there are guards.
Indeed. But if the school is hardened, even a little bit, the shooters go elsewhere.
 
pknopp I remember the cops on my campus... one dressed in a suit and his deputy's were in uniform... they were cool and they were not there to bust kids for pot or smoking or even truancy... they were there to keep the kids and the faculty safe from things like this...
Of course after I graduated CA removed all security form their schools... the rest of the nation followed suit and the carnage began...

When I went to school, we didn't have security, and a lot of the high school kids had rifles and shotguns in their trucks.

Why do these kids today need armed security at school?

hardening a school is very expensive and runs into safety issues like evacuation from fire. The elementary across the street was strengthened with a new steel frame for each instance, two barrier entry and serious crash doors. that wasn't too bad as many newer Texas schools are made as storm shelters already. Same for the Jr. high. But the kids high school? Good luck. LOTS of glass, lots of doors, multiple buildings. Its a miniature college campus.

We never had cops. I also don't support making schools like a prison.

The US tax payer funded The Inflation Reduction act to the tune of 1.2 trillion dollars. We have sent 175 billion to the Ukraine. I could go on, but you can see where I'm going with this.

Because they’re on drugs. Drug use has been mainstreamed and people still wonder why this shit happens.
