No thanks, I prefer more subtle forms of police state.

The difference is that in America the evil and hate are actively promulgated by half the population, whereas in Israel it is 99% external.

Israel has a unified culture - we have a culture torn between self-loathing and total surrender

I bet they would not avoid arresting a guy 39 times because they wanted to keep their arrests of Hispanic juveniles in line with their arrests of white people.

There was an armed guard on campus during this shooting. Problem is that it was a huge campus for a high school and one guard obviously was not enough. Hell, I don't even know what the guard did. Did he run away or was he shot? Anyone know?

If you're going to do this you need more than a low pay rent a cop. You're going to need a real strategy of locking the school down and closely monitoring anyone entering or exiting at all times. You need armed guards at every entry point into the school and you need some provision that makes it difficult for them to be ambushed.

IMO we need a TSA for schools.

Dems can find money to buy your old car back or to help you install solar panels at your house but not to make their schools safer from wackos.

If the citizens of the school district want it they can raise the money. Let the local gun shop sponsor the guard or maybe the billionaires who control the teachers unions money can make a donation.

R’s control 3 branches and crickets are drowning you out.

Can we raise taxes to pay for the added security? Good luck with that.

Israel also figured out airport security 40+ yrs ago too....you'd think we would take both playbooks and copy them but we're too stupid.

We should start with israel’s licensing process to own a gun first.

ETA: here is a link, for those interested. link.

Trump should give major Speech with this, and have Netanyahu as His Guest Speaker. And call on Congress to PROTECT our Children. Now!

Point went way over your head. Dems controlled the 3 branches not too long ago and did nothing. Your side doesn’t care to do anything but score cheap political points.

That doesn't appear to be the case, but your point is still valid. The school did have an assigned "resource officer", but likely wasn't on campus at the time of the shooting. See the article below.

Again, despite that I agree with your conclusions.

Sun-Sentinel Artcile

Quote from this article:
quote:

The only person trained and armed to fight back against an assailant at Stoneman Douglas is its one school resource officer, a Broward Sheriff’s deputy funded by the city of Parkland. But Maxwell said she doesn’t think he was on campus when the shooting happened. “I have been told by a couple of sources that the SRO was either called off campus responding to something happening or it could have been his day off,” she said. “They are stretched very thin.”

Just put off-duty police officers at the schools. I worked for an ATM company and those guys would guard us when working on machines, and worked shifts at bars, casinos, and Wal-Marts.

As good as this would be, our communist educators would never allow this. They would rather have students get shot.

for most of the leftist educational establishment, having guns in private hands is worse than school shootings. So they are willing to tolerate the latter to accomplish the former goal.

Alternative suggestion: get rid of public schools as they currently exist. Technology hss reached the point now where all this can be done online. Testing can be done at commercial testing centers like professional testing is done currently.

The nation would save billions not having to build and police public school campises. Yout property taxes would plummet.

You think cops are going to stop school shootings? The fed has given schools hundreds of millions for cops to work on campuses. No effect. The there were two cops in this most recent high school. No effect.

What exactly is it that you think that cops do?
