Mass shootings

I think that’s part of why we had one 20ish miles and 20 years later. People throughout our area had already had its school shooing, so we must be done.

Also, take heath. It’s merged into a bigger district which still has issues. Only one shooting but multiple instances of firearms found, “hit lists,” stabbings, etc. A friend has spent the last year trying to get the district sros (there’s three just at the high school) to use the metal detectors which were purchased by the sbdm and have spent the year sitting in a box. The school only has two entrances, but the officers don’t use them.
