The Futility of Trying to Prevent More School Shootings in America

At first I thought it might be an anti-gun control article (boy was I wrong). While the first 3/4 of it actually lay out some good ideas about how to stop school shootings prior to them happening along with research done and experience from law enforcement, schools, and others on how to identify potential shooters the main conclusion at the end is to ban guns, especially the horrific AR-15 and all semi-autos because they are "so much more lethal."

Yeah, FU, Atlantic.

The safety plan was to run to the car and lock the doors?

Wtf.

I love how the only thought considered when potentially banning guns, is just mass shootings.

No one is taking a step back and thinking of the dangers of having an unarmed populace in relation to their government.
No one is thinking about the murders or robberies that are PREVENTED by firearms ownership.

Their focus is very narrow. The problem is that pro-gun organizations are spending their time focusing on school shootings, and not speaking enough to the greater advantages of having people be armed in our society.

Stop bringing them in "alive"...

Stop promoting their identity and their backstories...

Stop coddling criminal behavior at the expense of lawful citizen defense!!!

And for heaven sakes, stop the liberal progressive hug a criminal agenda!

I had an ex-teacher tell me the best thing for protecting students isn't an armed teacher, but a well thrown ball...because guns are dangerous. I just rolled my eyes and walked away.
