Compare this incident to Uvalde and you can see the difference. Without those brave officers, a large number of children and teachers could have died. The fact that they were there and responded immediately prevented further bloodshed.

It must be realized that the school resource officers (as well as concealed handgun permit holders) have to REACT to an incident. In other words, they cannot shoot somebody because they look/act suspiciously. And they cannot be everywhere in the school all the time. If teachers had been allowed to be armed and trained to respond to this kind of incident maybe nobody would have died.

As far as the comments made by the Senile in Chief and the VP, and parroted by the media, as usual they blame the gun used by this mentally unstable child instead of the failures of the FBI and school administrators and counselors that failed to prevent this tragedy. Thousands of people die every year because of drunk drivers, but I have not heard anybody trying to ban cars….

Of course, we also had guns on campus, readily visible in the back windows of pickup trucks, and in boots in jeeps, and locked in glove compartments. Lots of guns, and no school shootings.

We need more guns on campus, in the hands of teachers, staff, and even students. People who have guns can shoot back at bad guys. People who have no guns are at the mercy of every crazy SOB who comes along. Let’s outlaw ‘gun free zones’, not just in schools, but everywhere.
