Mass school shootings are not ideal either. It little inconvenience is worth it to protect lives especially children.💜

They deserve to be protected, no one will disagree with that. But just beefing up security doesn’t actually eliminate the issues…it just slows them down. We have to do more to actually eliminate/fix the problem.
Since we can’t prevent gun ownership I believe the most practical approach is to take a proactive stance and adopt preventative measures in order to keep children safe at school.
The most viable option is to implement digital surveillance and standard safeguards like metal detectors and onsite police. They are mostly deterrents and while not 100% foolproof (nothing is) these strategies are proven to be quite effective.
We just can’t keep allowing any random person to waltz inside their school of choice and start shooting.
What else could we do at this point?💜
