Beyond the availability of guns, I'm not sure that school resource officers do more benefit than harm anyway. Softening schools is the right direction.
imagine thinking every school needs a security guard
(hint, if we don't have guns, we won't have school shootings anymore)
the idea that we simply need to guard our children better is a total and utter failure to imagine a future where such a thing is unnecessary because we have removed the tools that make these events possible in the first place.
yes, if i were benevolent dictator i would thanos-snap private firearm ownership out of existence with minimal exception (e.g. hunting clubs and ranges where arms are stored on premises, not in private homes).
You gotta know who the enemy is...I hope more and more people realize where the battle lines have been drawn. These people are deplorable and irredeemable.
Perhaps over hundreds of years some can be reached, but if you wait for that, you'll lose all your freedoms to them first.
Know. The. Enemy.
All the jostling, recriminations, excuses... there's only one way this will be solved - take the guns away. Repeal the 2nd Amendment, then make it a bitch-ass 10+ years in prison felony to possess firearms starting with assault rifles...Seriously. People need to stop thinking "well, this time it'll be different." If Newtown and Parkland didn't move the needle, nothing will.
It is the risk we all take living in America in 2023. It is what it is.
So let's say we arm schools. What about grocery stores, theatres, concert venues, sporting events? How about we have an armed guard on every street corner in America? Just curious where the right thinks this line of thinking/solution takes us.
And I am 100% sure they will soon try to implement laws restricting what segments of the population can own guns or not. THAT kind of gun control, they will be all over it. Once you paint any segment of society as "evil" or simply as persona non grata - it is very easy to mobilize support to strip that segment of any rights they wish to. It's coming.
As stupid as this sounds.. the only way Americans will ever get rid of the stupidity is to repeal the second amendment just like they repealed the 18th.
And the ignoring of the status quo puts us closer to that every waking day!
Public schools often have a school resource officer....
There's an episode of Last Week Tonight on this subject, it came to the conclusion that they do more harm than benefit.Beyond the availability of guns, I'm not sure that school resource officers do more benefit than harm anyway. Softening schools is the right direction.
I don't think it's stupid, seems pretty reasonable. Kinda feels like our continued failure to protect our youngest is an indictment of our entire system. The country collectively sits idly by as it happens again and again and again, in "the greatest country on Earth". At the very least we could revert to the days when guns were a hobby and not a lifestyle, and the NRA advocated for responsible stewardship. Many people love guns more than (biblical) Jesus now, that much is clear.As stupid as this sounds.. the only way Americans will ever get rid of the stupidity is to repeal the second amendment just like they repealed the 18th.

Complete bans in blue states and give them the ability to confiscate any that cross state lines.No need. Expand the courts to drown out the federalist society judges and put in place judges that interpret the 2nd as it was originally intended, as a right for states to protect themselves.
and include provisions for civil offenses with associated bounties should the plaintiff succeed.Complete bans in blue states and give them the ability to confiscate any that cross state lines.

Days like J6th are why peeps won't give up their guns nor should they. Drunks kill more people with cars but nobody's rushing the gates on that one either.

Yeah, because we don't have any laws to curb drunk driving or no regulations to help prevent injury when cars get into accidents...Days like J6th are why peeps won't give up their guns nor should they. Drunks kill more people with cars but nobody's rushing the gates on that one either.
